Understanding the drumbeat of life is to listen to the music of your soul and dance to its tune. Life is not a one-size-fits all. The artist is the same, but the art he creates is not. He enjoys the uniqueness each work possesses and embellishes them with distinct personalities and tastes. Even when the canvas, the shape, and brush look-alike, a quiet look is all you need to pick the specifications each came with.

Life is a work of art designed with creativity and intentionality.

The famous graphics designer Paul Rnad says “Designs are a silent ambassador of your brand.” Living life by design is to understand this singular, powerful perspective, which is that you are a silent ambassador of a brand. If you are reading this, it means you have life, out of a million sperms that were supposed to be formed, you won. If you are reading this, it also means you came with the compositions needed to be called human.

You are a silent ambassador of a brand

Being a silent ambassador of a brand empowers you with the needed resources to execute your mission while giving you the position to do that without contention. Importantly, while on the mission you must never forget you are an ambassador and are there to represent a brand. You have a voice to speak, a message to share, and a people to convert.

Design is defined as a plan or specification for the construction of an object or system or for implementing an activity or process. There is a plan for your life and you have been fitted with the specifications to implement that plan.

You have a voice to speak, a message to share, and a people to convert.

Living life by design begins with clarity of purpose and communication of that purpose in a way that represents your brand image and identity. You can’t appreciate a work of art without appreciating the master artist. Both are inseparable. The beauty and glory of a work of art are when it mirrors the intention of the designer. Therein lies its power and value.

There is a designer and He has his brand image and identity and your His design was created to mirror His image and identity. The convergence of these is living life by design.
