    About this ebook

    Do you think and feel that you're an ordinary being, but with great potentials locked deep within, and you want to know how to harness them?

    Are you at the verge of finding more meaning to life, because you feel there's more to life and living?

    Or you just want to live a life of more impact?

    Then, The Abattoir is a perfect fit for you!

    Oluwaseun has put together a great guide that will walk you through the journey to becoming the hero you have always dreamed of.

    In the Abattoir:
    • Oluwaseun comes down to your level, and using a narrative that is simple and easy to understand, he drives home his message. He gives insight into your very situation and sheds light on why you feel the way you feel currently.
    • He then goes further to prescribe a solution to the situation, which is going to the Abattoir, where the hero in you is unlocked.
    • From his wealth of knowledge and experience, he offers to help you through the whole process of self discovery, refining, and in your pursuit of becoming a hero.

    The book equips you with the knowledge and information needed to transform you from the ordinary person that you think you are to the person you need to be---everyone's hero.

    I cannot promise you a better world. But I can promise you a better you, if you go through this book with an open mind. A better you is all we need. That's the person who will change the world and make it a better place for us all.

    See you at the top!

    Oluwaseun Ajiboye

    I am Oluwaseun, ROI Africa's Global Youth Ambassador for productivity. I'm so obsessed with the youth that I've given myself up to the cause of service. Two years into my Ambassadorial programme, I realized that it would not be possible for the youths to be productive if they do not experience peace at home and in the society; get good education, good governance and security. Since then, I have been an advocate for education, security, peace and good governance.I'm founder of "ID8T COSMOS" (pronounced ideate: "aidieit"), a mentoring platform for personal and purpose discovery and pursuit, personal transformation and productivity. I've helped many youths discover their true selves, and purposes, which they now pursue earnestly, under careful guidance and mentoring.I'm a writer, driving instructor, content creator and developer, I serve as Media Officer and Productivity Adviser to M2YW SPORTS, a football academy. I also do some graphics, web and UX designs.

    The Abattoir - Oluwaseun Ajiboye

    PRAISE FOR THE ABATTOIR

    This is an inspiring prose. Oluwaseun is very creative. Everything would be better if more people were like him (Oluwaseun).

    ---Sikirou K. Adiatu, Lagos State Teaching Service Commission.

    An interesting piece of work! The analogy is great and I commend Oluwaseun for this.

    Powerful book! The Abattoir contains many truths which hit me really hard as I read through. This is indeed a gold mine.

    ---Victor O. Are, http://storitela.wixsite.com/

    It is a well researched book which categorically discusses the importance of the abattoir (process) to an individual's assignment.

    ---Philips Ade-Philips, M2YW Vision Projects.

    What an unusual book! The Abattoir is one book that will spike the heart of anyone (young or old) who is willing to achieve greatness.

    This is a beautiful book, an inspiring one!

    About the Author

    DEDICATION

    To the one who seeks meaning to life and living; everyone pursuing purpose. To all who lost their lives during the #endSARS protests of October, and everyone who joined in the fight against Police brutality in Nigeria. They are true heroes.

    INTRODUCTION

    Here's a creative story for the young; an experience everyone needs to have. You have the capacity to lead your generation. You were designed to be separated from among multitudes, to a place of self discovery, crucial to your assignment to this generation. If you do not recognize the right TIME, PLACE, and INDIVIDUALS for your assignment, your intended good works will be done wrongly.

    A teacher once said that the greatest tragedy that can befall man is not death, but rather coming to the world and not fulfilling purpose. The abattoir is the place to go, for purpose to be fulfilled; the place of life and death where you could choose to live for the glory. There is a place where man makes sacrifice every now and then, in order to achieve excellence and fulfil purpose; a place to be, either alone or with people who will help you get to destination (fulfilling purpose). That place is the abattoir. You must discern your abattoir and willfully go there, for maximum impact.

    Dressing is the process of separating the edible and useful parts of an animal from the useless, unneeded ones. However, the animal has to be killed first to avoid making a mess of the whole process. Death is inevitable, what kind do you wish for? Surely, death will come knocking on the door someday, will you live on or be forgotten?

    Discover why the abattoir is necessary for a man to become the Marshall that he needs to be in his kingdom (field) in The Abattoir. Happy reading!

    Projects Coordinator, M2YW Vision Projects.

    PART ONE

    THE RANCH

    The ranch is a large farm where animals such as cows and bulls are raised for their milk and meat. It is the place where such animals live. There, they are cared for, receiving the best of cares they could ever get. They have everything they can ever need there; evergreen and extensive stretches of grass and fodder, and pools of water to take care of their stomach infrastructure. Trees, under which they can rest and also hide from the scorching sun. A large expanse of land to stretch their feet, roam around and graze. They take shelter in enclosures---pens---after a great day of roaming the ranch. Their welfare package is very enticing. They have everything they could ever ask for. There are staffers on the ranch, to attend to their immediate needs. The ranch has its own security facilities which bars
