Description

The Conquering Spirit narrates the story of Mdumiseni Menze, about growing up in a village in the Eastern Cape as

one of the sons of uneducated parents with ten children to raise.

However, they believed in the power of education and pushed their children to not only do well in school but to

succeed in their chosen careers. He is a man who has a strong faith in God, and lives a life of kindness and love. He

also has a strong core of strength and determination, and never gives up no matter how difficult things get.

Through his story, Mdu encourages young people to persevere through the hard times and not let their disadvantage

from their birth circumstances to define them and their future; they should use it as fuel to develop a conquering spirit.

This book is not for light reading and moving along to something that seems exciting. It is a very good tool that can be

used to overcome challenges when life gets tough. The principles Mdu espouses through his story are applicable to a

wide spectrum of life circumstance like coping with growing up poor, accessing tertiary education, surviving financial

difficulties while you study and what you can do when you are retrenched. There are hidden gems in here about

planning, preparation and the power of prayer.
