The Life Purpose Podcast on Life Signatures Radio

🎉 New #Podcast! When I talk about a warrior, you would conjure up images of war, conquest and devastation as well as authority and leadership. However, all around us, there are warriors fighting battles whether at personal levels or otherwise. You might not even recognize them but they are in our midst. Today, I bring you an impromptu conversation that I had with such a one, the one who authored...

🎉 New #Podcast! Our lives are littered with events from conception to burial. The moments and memories that events create are important in our lives. Naturally, we tend to celebrate the events and even look forward to more. With fulfillment of purpose, we will be doing ourselves a great disservice if we look more for events than steep ourselves into a process. Both are important but here is why y...

🎉 New #Podcast! Somehow, we are more inclined to events than process. This is because events create elevation and moments to remember. They can be very defining and momentous. For Jesus, the moment of crucifixion was defining. For Obama, it was that speech at the DNC. At the end of the day events mark special purpose moments in our lives. So should we be chasing after events or looking out for pr...

🎉 New #Podcast! Self leadership is so powerful because no one is exempt from it. It is powerful because it's not about privilege, power or politics. It's about personal purpose. That's why it is important for us to try as much as we can to increase our personal leadership capacities. This episode is a summary of a series of episodes where we were answering this question: is a great president the...

🎉 New #Podcast! There is a misconception that leadership is all about guiding other people. In fact this is so much so that those who are not in "leadership positions" tend to do little about being circumspect. Granted, when I take up responsibility to lead a team, I am compelled to rise up to it. How great would it be though, when I rise up and be circumspect even when not leading others? This i...

🎉 New #Podcast! Self leadership is what we need more. However, the way we are clamoring to be led, one might think that the leaders we elect will come to our homes and help us with home improvement. Whereas great leaders are a blessing for a nation, without self leadership, the great national leaders wouldn't perform a miracle for individuals. The other component of self leadership is exemplified...

🎉 New #Podcast! In order to increase your self leadership capacity, you need not only to identify what you are not good at but also make it a foregone conclusion that you cannot major in your weaknesses. There are people who are thriving in those areas that you are weak at as they are practicing their self leadership. You and I ought to do the same. It is the responsible thing to do. Listen to th...

🎉 New #Podcast! One of the most potent forces of change in the world are organizations. If run well, they can impact and transform individuals, communities and even the whole country and regions. I got to sit down again with Shamim K Matovu whose passion is creating wonderful work environments for people in organizations. She is so particular about organizations and their work cultures. Take a li...

🎉 New #Podcast! Self leadership is what the populace needs more than a great leader. In fact, what a great leader offers is a conducive environment where self leadership can thrive. Being that important a facet of life, we need to examine it further. What are some of the things that we can do that can increase our self leadership capacity? In this episode, we get started on that journey. Listen t...

🎉 New #Podcast! The atmosphere and airwaves in Kenya and every other place where elections will be taking place later in the year are charged. The most active people are the poor who are hoping that the presidency of their choice will bring in respite to their personal troubles. We have already stated in the series that great leadership is not the answer that you need in your individual life, sel...

🎉 New #Podcast! Self leadership is to be touted at the rooftops more than peddling presidential candidates. It's a sorry day when millions of people in a country think that one leader is going to sort out their individual needs. Such people think that the greatest work they can do is to vote in their person. We are answering this question in this episode: is a great president the answer? Well, we...

🎉 New #Podcast! It is, for lack of a better word, sexy to have a great president. Many countries are always seeking for this. The question that we must answer over and over is this: are great presidents our answer? As much as leadership is critical, presidency is not the only form of leadership out there. There is one form of leadership that is even much more powerful than presidential powers. Th...

🎉 New #Podcast! People will tell you while quoting John C Maxwell that everything rises and falls on leadership. True. Only that people wrongly think that the only leader is the president. Leadership is not a position of course. It's not a title. It is a verb. It doesn't have a preserve of sorts, but where it lacks, there is a massive problem. In this new series, let us discuss this question: Is...

🎉 New #Podcast! People try hard to convince me that the purpose of life is to be happy and comfortable. I always retort that those are byproducts of the purpose of being alive, and that is to be useful, productive and effective. In order for us to enhance our productivity and effectiveness, there are things that we need to make sure are happening. This is a close of the series on productivity wit...

🎉 New #Podcast! Every one has a story and every one has a song. Brian's story is from riches to rags, to homelessness. It is the story of purpose, determination and resilience. When I sat down to have a conversation with him at his office at Kingdom Kampala, I was not prepared to hear what he said in the two hours that followed so much so that we didn't talk about his life's work. We shall resche...

🎉 New #Podcast! Effectiveness in life is an inherently coded need. No matter who you are or where you come from, whenever you are not effective in life, you will feel it and it will unsettle you. That's why we have to learn how to enhance our effectiveness in life on a daily basis. In this episode, we share just how "dependencies" are critical to a life of effectiveness. Listen to this.

🎉 Special #Podcast! His real name is Joseph Beyanga. He is the Head of Radio at KFM and Dembe FM in Kampala, a position that he has held over the years. Joe Walker is a name that he acquired just a few months back under interesting circumstances that you can find out in this episode. He is a man on a mission to walk over 300 kilometers from Kampala to South Western Uganda. This is to raise awaren...

🎉 New #Podcast! This might be controversial but let me say it: rather a person who is a consumate strategist than one with high qualifications. Of course there is a strong case for competence as was highlighted in the episode yesterday. To be effective in life, a planner will achieve more than what a qualified person with no strategy would. However, we need both strategy as well as competence. Li...

🎉 New #Podcast!    When we go all out seeking education in life, what's the end game? Is it to be competent enough to get gainful employment or it's about increasing our capacity to be effective in life? No doubt, effectiveness in life will always be 100% connected to competence. No one ever was effective and incompetent all at the same time. We discuss that and more in this episode. Check it out...

🎉 New #Podcast! Inherently, we all want to be effective in life. It is as if this is a psychological need in that when we are ineffective, we feel it in our spirits and we are down. To be effective in life, there are three components that we need to identify about our unique effectiveness. It doesn't matter what field you are in, all these count. Listen to this.

🎉 New #Podcast! We complicate life so much and yet it is simple...though maybe not easy. You know how simple life is by looking at two major D.O.B.s. Date of Birth and Date of Burial. Especially the latter can reveal how needless the complications were. Life is about effectiveness so much so that even if you are not instructed about it, when you are not effective, you will most definitely know. T...

🎉 New #Podcast! Why? That's the question many people ask me when I tell them about the challenges that my guest on the show imputes on herself and see them through. There is a great deal to learn from Beatrice Langariti. It is inspiring as it is motivating. When I set out to interview her, I wanted to talk about her purpose and life' s work. I'm afraid that will have to wait. Let's do this instea...

🎉 New #Podcast! Have you ever at any point in life wondered what life was all about anyway? Perhaps you were in a low moment or maybe your hopes have been dashed or you are even on a high. I have always theorized that the purpose of life is to be effective. It is therefore important to start considering how we can enhance our effectiveness in this life. This is what this new series is about. List...

🎉 New #Podcast! There is quite a bit to learn here but let me challenge you. Please find me an entrepreneur that is not working through purpose. Find me one that has gone into entrepreneurship solely to earn tonnes of cash. My point is that purpose and entrepreneurship are connected to the hip. There is no question about that. This is what we can learn from Elon Musk, 5 lessons on entrepreneurshi...

🎉 New #Podcast! Over the past several episodes, we are learning about purpose and entrepreneurship by referencing the example or the life of Elon Musk. He might be American now but that doesn't stop us from seeing some general life purpose principles in his entrepreneurship that can be applied all over. Of course, Musk has been identified as a very gritty person indeed. In today's episode, let us...
