BE THE SALT OF THE EARTH. SEASON THE WORLD IN YOUR OWN WAY.
This message, shared by entrepreneur and thought leader Dumisani Lingamangali Ncube, is more than a personal reflection,it is a bold call to action for every individual striving to make an impact in their space, no matter how big or small.
In a world that often measures success by wealth, recognition, or influence, Ncube reminds us that true greatness lies in how we uplift others and transform the spaces we occupy. His words, which have been widely shared on social media, offer timeless wisdom rooted in both Scripture and lived experience.
In his own words, he writes:
“One of the most powerful verses in Scripture says: ‘You are the salt of the earth.’ It’s a simple line, but it carries a deep challenge: to add value wherever you are placed. To leave every space better than you found it.
In my own journey, I’ve tried, imperfectly but intentionally, to live this out.
I’ve hosted the biggest conference on entrepreneurship ever held in Zambia, not for applause, but because I believe that empowering African minds is the beginning of our transformation.
I’ve walked hundreds of kilometers, twice, and am about to embark on my longest walk yet from Congo to Zimbabwe. Not because it’s easy, but because I believe Africa must think, act, and rise. These walks are not about the distance… they’re about the cause.
I’ve mentored hundreds, opened doors for others, and dedicated myself to raising an army of African Thinkers. Because when you’re blessed, it’s not for decoration, it’s so you can become a blessing to others.
My calling may be different from yours, but each of us has a way to season the world. You may not host conferences or walk across nations. But in your space, in your home, in your company, in your community, you can make a difference.
Ask yourself today: ‘How can I be the salt in my generation?’
How can I bring light, hope, innovation, healing, or wisdom to my world?
Don’t wait until you’re big. Don’t wait until you’re ready. Don’t wait until you’re perfect.
Start seasoning the world now, with your gifts, your story, your courage, your voice.
Because when all is said and done, the world will not remember how much we had. It will remember how much we gave.”

Ncube’s message is not only inspirational it is deeply practical. Through his walks across Africa, mentorship efforts, and commitment to building platforms for entrepreneurs, he exemplifies what it means to live a life of purpose and impact. His story proves that you don’t need to be perfect or powerful to make a difference you just need to be willing. In a time when many are searching for meaning and direction, this call to “season the world” serves as a powerful reminder: each of us has something to give. And giving begins not with greatness, but with intention.
Let the question linger in your heart today:
How will you be the salt of the earth in your own way?
