A motivational speaker, Richard Rambau, has authored his first motivational book, Pathways to a Greater Success.
He said the book deals with how a person can discover him- or herself and achieve his or her dreams. It gives fruitful guidelines and principles that are necessary for success.
“It also talks about challenges that people face every day when they are working towards their goals and provides advice on how we can overcome challenges and defeat them,” he added. “The book talks about the ways that we have to travel to our desired destination.”
He added that what motivated him to write the book “is my disadvantaged upbringing and my painful past. I was also motivated by the belief that a person must not care about the negative circumstances but care about what they can do better tomorrow."
He said he discovered his motivating gift at the age of 14 years and his passion for writing developed at the age of 18. He was born at Ha-Nthabalala, Mailaskop. He described himself as a loving and caring person.
“Everyone was born with a purpose. We are all created uniquely and amazingly, and we have the power to make things happen. If you are a writer and wish to publish a book, make sure that it is your passion and you have something to say. Don’t just write in the name of writing. Always remember that people need to benefit from reading your book,” he concluded.
The book was launched on 10 February at Alexandra Atrec Sports Centre, Johannesburg. Those interested in purchasing it can phone him on 082 755 0703 or Avhapfani Nengome

The revival of Tshivenda traditional music is not just the pipe dream of some idealists. Judging by the turnout during a meeting held in Thohoyandou this past weekend, this form of music is about to undergo a major revival.
Tshivenda traditional-music lovers are in for a treat with a collaboration between Tshivenda traditional music legend and veteran Solomon Mathase and popular poet and guitarist Dzomo la Venda. The two were spotted on Saturday, 20 April, at a function in Thohoyandou where they showcased their talents during a live performance.
During a Sunday sermon, Bishop Johannes Muofhe of the World Mission Church’s Fondwe branch prophesied that a musician, someone other than a member of the worship team, would emerge from the church.
With a successful roots-reggae album titled “Shandukani” to his name, Fhatuwani Richard Mashele is quickly becoming a household name in South African music. Better known as Jah Saint in music circles, Mashele believes that success does not come overnight and that one must work hard to earn it.
