Abundance Mentality
My Autobiography
This is the story of how a barefooted boy, from the beautiful but remote Ugandan countryside of Kisoro district beneath the Virunga Mountains, grew up to become a Permanent Secretary. More than 60 years of adversity, adventure and hope are compressed in a few hundred pages to bring to life the belief that an attitude that a glass is half-full (rather than half- empty) goes a long way to attracting positive things in a person’s life. Pius Bigirimana disentangles Uganda’s past and weaves the tale of his family through the difficulties of the times the nation has been through to emphasise the need for a positive attitude, piety and hard work. Abundance Mentality is a testimony that beauty and success are forged using the tools of adversity and, sometimes, failure. One must show a willingness to continually adjust to changing circumstances and detect new opportunities and possibilities.
Unchained
A Public Servant With A Private Sector Mindset
Unchained is a journeying of narratives exploring the meaning of service and its transformation in Uganda right from the pre-colonial period. It culminates in a modern-day examination of where the problem is in Uganda’s Public Service today. The author acknowledges that the Ugandan workspace has evolved substantially over the years. Nonetheless, Conceptual Clarity (deep and wholesome understanding of one’s work) and an Abundance Mentality (a positive mindset) remain very important tools for the modern-day Public Servant. At the institutional level, Mandate Migration (doing what ought not to be done and leaving what ought to be done undone) plagues the cohesive operation of Ministries, Departments and Agencies.Using his personal experiences, as Permanent Secretary, he demonstrates that a positive attitude and thinking “outside the box” are free of charge and cost a good worker nothing to expend. It is without doubt that the Public Service in Uganda has fundamental fl aws (exacerbated by endemic corruption) that must be addressed but that is no excuse for the indifference, unresponsiveness and negativity of some of Uganda’s public servants. These should be fought and be defeated decisively in order to bequeath the future generations with a fruitful inheritance.
Corruption
Coruption, A Tale Of Wolves In Sheep's Clothing
My experiences in fighting corruption in Uganda's Public Service
To understand corruption in Uganda’s Public Service, one requires a contemplative and practical, yet simplified, examination of how it has come to be. In this book, the notion that corruption affects every single person in the community one moment at a time is carefully expounded. Whether a sick mother cannot receive free drugs at the Government Health Centre because the Health Worker has stolen them, whether the primary school child cannot get a wholesome education on account of an absentee teacher, corruption alters the quality of life, one person at a time. It gradually gathers momentum, hurling the community to a final destination of socio-economic gridlock, widespread deprivation and poverty. Ultimately, these breed the environment that turns corruption into a state of affairs that sabotages Governance and National Security. Any nation that ignores corruption signs off on its own stability and bequeaths the future of its children to anarchy.

Naked Truth
A Conversation About African Sex Magic Treasures
Naked Truth is a bold, simply narrated but wholesome examination of the sex problem in marriage. In this book, the author explores deeper understanding of sex. It is not merely a physical act but also an emotional and spiritual experience. He also puts forward the idea and contents of what good sex is. To help those trapped in the disappointment of bad sex, he offers solutions packaged in a detailed prescription about building intimacy and a powerful enabling environment. An inventory of the changes in modern culture and personal preferences is used to help illuminate the context into which today’s husband and wife find themselves. After the layer of relational difficulties has been peeled away, the author conveys a hands-on description of a powerful native African bedroom technique. This technique is guaranteed to offer winning results each and every single time.
Naked Truth Part 2
Extra Sex & Marriage Tips
Naked Truth Part 2 is a calculated and simply explored package on the skill of combining the power of sex to the important infrastructure that oils the wheels of marriage. Where Naked Truth cast the spotlight on the technical and practical activity of sex, Naked Truth Part 2 brings out the circumstances within which skill is required to operate the technology of both sex and marriage. In this book, the author explores the broader scope of life in marriage, which poses a challenge to the reliability of sex as a dependable glue between husband and wife. From bad choices about sex to work to financial challenges to personality differences, among others, the author puts Naked Truth, his first book the subject, into the boots on the ground mode. It is hoped that the reader will acquire, or be refreshed in, the knowledge of the amount of work it takes to make sex fresh in marriage day after day, year after year. The author also hopes that the reader will appreciate that there are many other factors at play within a marriage that make or break it. Marriage is like a complex piece of equipment and those that enjoy it, in the long-term, exhibit an attitude of open-mindedness and continuous learning as they uncover the various buttons and what they do. In marriage, there is no “arrivism”.
