Yesterday, during one of our regular young men's mentorship sessions, my family, close friends, and I discussed relationships, leadership, entrepreneurship, purpose, and mental health. Their questions were sincere, and one thought stayed with me.
Kenya's young people are not short on talent. They are often short on a vision big enough to inspire them, because inspiration is a requisite of life. After the session, I found myself thinking like a chess player, where weak players see the next move and strong players see the whole board. Suddenly, I began to see Kenya differently.
Indeed, every nation is built twice, first in the mind and then on the land. Perhaps nowhere have we underestimated ourselves more than in agriculture.
