    \u201cThe TTL assisted me to have clarity on my purpose, I always knew it subconsciously but it was not clearly visible in my mind and TTL assisted me clarify my living legacy \"which is to help South African develop a Devine identity\" one of the main things I learnt from TTL is not to wait for perfection and the right time but to start implementing my living legacy.
