WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL SUCCESSOR?

BY SALAMI BABATUNDE DAUDA

We see most celebrities claiming that they are successful when they have more followers. President claim they are successful when they are elected. Managers claim they are successful after winning and completing a project.

HOW DO WE KNOW WHO ARE SUCCESSOR?

Firstly, we need to know who are the successor. Successor are the ones who claim a position after which someone has left the post, either direct or indirect.

The prince is the successor to the king after the king has been declared dead and he emerge as the new king. But none of them is successful yet. This is the same as all other aspect of leadership in life. We all know that no one lives forever as one have to die once and forever. Some post may be held for some months or years and new people will be imposed or elected to continue the administration. 

WHEN ARE YOU SUCCESSFUL? 

You can only be successful not only when your children, siblings, friends or family emerge your position whether you are dead or alive but when all your legacy laid is still being practiced and you are always remembered by your followers. When you successfully inculcate some act in your followers and they can refer back that you taught them this or that. When your name is never forgotten for no reasons.

Most of the successful great men and women are the ones we either know or read about them and from those things we read about them we are able to have an imagination of how they live their life. We were able to tell others about them even when they are no more. Prophet Mohammed (S.A.W), Jesus Christ and many other men of God are successful that's why we talk about them today. They inculcate the act of worshiping God in us and that's what we have been doing even after we couldn't see them again. We talked about some the past leaders in Nigeria and other countries and we are able to learn from their past good and mistakes. These people are said to be successful because we can talk about them today. Isaac Newton, Abraham Lincoln, Archimedes, Henry Fayol, Barack Obama, Obafemi Awolowo, Fela Kuti, Gaddafi , Nelson Mandela and many more.

CAN WE LOSS THE TITLE "SUCCESSFUL"?

You may loss that word successful easily without stress. Osama bin ladin is and was well known as a terrorist. His actions cannot be forgotten till date. But he loss the title successful because he was insulged in killing and bad act. Nobody talk good about him today. If  anyone is as popular as him (Osama) today in good act. The person will be among the most successful successor in the world. But today his popularity has no value because nobody want to train their children like him. Though we have other terrorists around the world but no good parent will pray for their children to indulge in such act. That's why we considered them as not being successful.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL?

Of course YES, everybody love to be remembered after which they are no more just like the ones mentioned above. 

If we want to be remembered, then we need to start doing things that will make the world never forget us again. Nelson Mandela is a successful president as everybody talk good about him. And most parent want their children to be like or greater than him. 

It is a must for everyone to be successful irrespective of where you are coming from, irrespective of what you are going through.
