Review of Oprah Winfrey's The Path Made Clear
By Chenda Gituku

Introduction

The seeds of purpose sprout into fertile plants with roots unshakable to the grounds of terror, the whispers of rain and clouds of resistance allow for growth. A map to destiny and the road worth climbing needs to be trailed with an ounce of sacrifice and the willingness to give within a space of service. The reward always awaits at the home we all seek which is divine consciousness.

A book to enlighten and ensure that we understand alignment in the clearest most purest way and mainly mind anthologies. We stan the words of The Oprah Winfrey and the way she ensures we understand how the life force precedes to work in our favor and with the correct tools you will be driven to the predestined equator of life, purpose. The subjects pertained in this illuminating piece allow us the readers to understand that we truly are divine elements set a part to fulfill what has been ordained to us as destiny. With that understanding we propel forward and forward alone.

Chapter One.

The Seeds

This chapter is far from static it carries seeds of various autonomies teaching us that truly purpose is dynamic. But the seed that resonated, is the seed of consciousness.

“Even the most unconscious person against their greatest will, is on a process to evolve life gives us opportunity after opportunity to ask, ‘Is this my truest self? Or am I living the inauthentic self?’ Becoming conscious means to recognize when that moment arrives. And it’s coming and it’s coming, and it’s coming… “

By Dr Shefali Tsabary.

Chapter Two.

The Roots

The roots are how it all began, what grounds you to you.

Oprah “Once you align your personality with your purpose no one can touch you”.

Chapter Three.

The Whispers

The whispers, the whispers of rain, the whispers of emotion, the whispers of greatness, the whispers of alert! Awakening you to an existential state of being.

Oprah, “Passion whispers to you through your feelings, beckoning you toward your highest good”

Oprah, “Life is about growth and change and when you are no longer doing either you’ve received your first whisper”   

Chapter Four.

The Clouds

Clouds are aspects (anger, shame, guilt…) of us that hinder our vision to see destiny. They’re the strongholds to a life of unlimited peace. When you hear me say ‘us’ it is us because half the time we feel as if the world is against us it’s normally just us against ourselves.

This dynamically divine prayer held my heart in a warm embrace:  “I love you fear, and now you go to sleep. I love you, anger, you’re part of me. Go to sleep. It’s fine. I’m in charge now. I love you shame. Even you. Come into my heart. Go to sleep. You’re safe. I love you. I’m not leaving you. You’re part of me. You’re part of the family. You’re never going to be away from me. I love you, failure. Come into my heart. Rest. You’re so tired. You’re so scared. You’re just children. You don’t know how the world works. I love all of you. I have space for all of you. And together, were just going to go forward now.”

By Elizabeth Gilbert.

Chapter Five.

The Map

Iyanla Vanzant

“Affirm your vision, clarify your vision”

Mindy Kaling

“Stand in the I”

Jeff Weiner

“It’s the clarity of one’s vision, the courage of one’s conviction and the ability to effectively communicate both of those things”

Chapter Six.

The Road

Oprah’s opening remarks; “Find your lane make space for the flow to show itself follow the natural rhythm of your life and you will discover a force for greater than your own.”

Barbra Brown Taylor

“I have no argument with greatness. But if arriving at any great destination becomes an excuse for dismissing my life now because I haven’t found that great purpose yet that’s a waste of a day if not a life.”

Chapter Seven.

The Climb

As tough as climbing anything in life is, the climb is where most lessons are taught and learnt.

Oprah, “Your Kilimanjaro awaits.”

Chapter Eight.

The Give.

I have always known my purpose is to be of service and Oprah’s words affirmed this for me when her opening remarks for this chapter were, “My life goal is to be of service to a greater good wherever that true calling takes me I’ve always been willing to go.”

Chapter Nine.

The Reward

Oprah, “Wealth is a tool that gives you choices, but it can’t compensate for a life not truly lived.”

Chapter Ten.

Home

Oprah, “Nourish what makes you feel confident, connected, contented. Opportunity will rise to meet you.”

Now that ‘opportunity’ is HOME.

Conclusion.

The Path Made Clear is everything and more for those of us who are still on a journey towards destiny and greatness.
