Ignite Your Wisdom

INTRODUCTION

BY JB Owen

Welcome to a beautiful book about wisdom. A compilation book designed to instill new ideas, heartfelt support, and nuggets of wisdom derived from individuals just like you. This book has come together in record time as each of the authors happily shared their special knowledge knowing that it was destined to arrive, right here, in your hands. All the maneuvering, deciding, actions, information, and an internal “yes” had to transpire for you to be holding it as you are. It is a wonderful thought to behold. Imagine all the steps that were taken, from gathering these authors to writing, editing, printing, marketing, managing, and making sure that whatever needed to happen, occurred so that you could be reading it now. That shows just how marvelous and magical “everything” is to support wisdom to unfold in this way. As you open the pages and read the stories, we know that the right and perfect story, written just for you, will stand out and impact your life. We are sure of it, and we are excited for you. Excited that the wisdom you seek has arrived, wrapped in a book, perfectly designed for you, ready to propel you forward, as it touches your heart and fills your mind with glorious new ideas and insight. After you read it, what you do with this knowledge is yet to be discovered. How you take the wisdom from here and go forward will be the journey you decide. The journey of discovery, transformation, and change is often filled with the most extraordinary life lessons and profound awakenings. We hope one of our stories will be the catalyst for precisely that. Where you take your-self after you finish this book will be a gift to the world that we are excited to witness. May your wisdom be deep and vast, epic and grand, gregarious and filled with glee. Wisdom illuminates the path and can bring inspiration on one’s journey! On our journey to IGNITE Wisdom, we found truths, uncovered myster-ies, and discovered intimate details about ourselves. We share our wisdom moments with the hope that our light brings inspiration to you and many new discoveries along your path. ~ Ignite Author, Jameece Pinckney They often say wisdom comes from hindsight. The ability to look back and see something from a diff erent perspective and gain valuable information from it. While writing this book, all of the authors took the time to look back and fi nd the wisdom within their personal journeys. Then they put them here, within these pages, ladened with insights and oozing with knowledge, hoping to pass that on to you. For me, wisdom seems to have been the word of the year. Many things have happened to bring wisdom to the forefront. Changes, adaptations, growth, and life’s endless wonders have fi lled me with a plethora of wanted and warranted wisdom. I have learned wisdom is a unique thing. It can come in waves like a bashing ocean, relentless in its delivery. It can sneak up on you like a baby fawn, quietly meandering through the forest. It can come in a raging fi re or show up like a thundering storm. Wisdom takes all shapes, sizes, and forms; formidable when it arrives, impactful when it takes hold. It can yank your breath away in an instant and then leave you reeling for years, all designed to awaken you and make you pay attention. CONTINUE READING IN THE BOOK!
