Evolve: Journeying towards success

A review of Adedigba Stephen’s book, Evolve: The Process of Becoming, by Olaleye Komolafe and Promise Adagba.

EVOLVE, written by Adedigba Stephen, can be said to be an extraordinary document which provides inspiration, as well as intellectual guideline and support to anyone seeking growth and development in every sphere of human endeavour.

The book, which has 116 nuggets, gives hints on how to hit the ‘iron’ to achieve the desired result.

The book can be regarded as a document which brings into light the fundamental understanding of life in the properties of specific kinds of matter, as it extensively describes the processes of life transformation in different biological domains.

As posited in the book, to evolve is to be involved in naturalistic exploration of man’s conquest of inertia to regain the dominion reserved for him at the beginning of being.

The author believes “every man was created to excel, every man was formed to make it, and every man was destined to subjugate the world, and reign like a colossus.”

This book treats the concept of values, capacity building, relevance and character, which will come in handy as one evolves in life.

The goal of the book is ultimately to drive people towards realising their potential, as well as exploring those potential to achieve greater heights and results.

Without mincing words, the book shares numerous motivational nuggets, with each serving as drivers that will help readers understand the prospects associated with evolving in the contemporary world.

Adedigba, in the first chapter of the book, recommends that every mind needs to evolve into the complete person he intends to be by making ‘moves’ instead of making ‘noise’ and that reputation is never made of intentions but actual deeds.  He explains that no one can climb a ladder from the top, stressing that one needs to be productive rather than just being busy.

In subsequent chapters, the author urges readers to understand the evolve process and begin to ‘think big and start small,’ noting that “what you do behind doors can make or mar you; be yourself and hone your skills.”

In conclusion, the book, ‘Evolve’ is a must-read for all discerning minds as they journey through the road to success.
