Pause

When we learn from each other, that's when we learn more about ourselves.With a radio career spanning more than three decades, Thabo T-Bose Mokwele brings topics to the airwaves that challenge and invoke human introspection and dialogue with his audience. And through this he has learned a lot about life and its nuances. Pause is a collection of Thabo's observations, reflections and learnings about what life is about. Simply put, this is the book he wishes he had read before starting his adult life journey.Pause is a compilation of Thabo's pearls of wisdom and lessons about life, God, money, relationships, parenting and, most importantly, self-mastery. His knowledge has been acquired by reading other philosophers' views on life and love, from interviewing entrepreneurs and entertainers about self-sufficiency, and preachers and teachers about self-mastery. This, you may say, is his 'bible', to drive his life, and a lens through which he views his existence.Thabo shares what he knows, what he practises and what still challenges him. It's a book that everyone, from teens to adults, should read for a glimpse, and as a guide, to living a life that is meaningful.We learn from our mistakes, but some mistakes are costly and should never be repeated. And if reading a short chapter on a particular topic can help mould a young person's life, or assist an adult to self-correct, then Pause is a must-read.Thabo says: We all need to learn, unlearn and relearn many things in order to fully realise who we are meant to be.
