Well-known author Freedom Maluleke, also known as "Mr Free", recently published his second book, titled "Cheating is not a mistake but a choice", which is all about motivating those in need of overcoming challenges.
Maluleke, who hails from Mapapila village in Malamulele, is also a motivational public speaker, singer/composer, counsellor, and actor. He uses his talents to share stories of hope and inspiration and is deeply committed to guiding youngsters and uniting families to fortify their defences against adversity.
When Maluleke wrote his first book, "Courage is the Strength of a Winner", which took him 10 years to complete, he worked as a toilet cleaner and gardener to raise the money to get the book published. "I stood at traffic lights, going door to door, at malls, and everywhere I went to sell my book," he said.
Embracing his calling to offer inspiration, Maluleke's new book is a powerful testament to the human spirit's ability to conquer adversity. "All good things do not happen by itself; it requires one to find the right tools to achieve one's goals. If you are hungry for a better life, you should have the right tools at hand. Courage is one of the most important tools. Without courage, we fail. That's why I named the book 'Courage is the Strength of a Winner'."
He says the book is doing extremely well so far and that he is blessed with the support from people from all corners of South Africa.
