Abstract This book, Dikakapa Everyday Heroes: African journeys to success, is the proud initiative of a social intervention project called Dikakapa: Every-day Heroes. "Dikakapa Everyday Heroes: African journeys to success" is a collection of short personal stories by young Africans. In the book, the authors exercise self introspection and examination to reflect on how they navigated the formal education system (matric and/or tertiary level) to emerge as winners in their chosen career paths. It is a motivational tool for those aspiring to join tertiary institutions and is an invaluable resource for new university entrants who often struggle to balance their new found independence with the demands and discipline that varsity requires.
