Value vs Success: How Successful are You?
Old English adage says blatantly that the end justifies the means, the world over have now regretted that adage as it has changed the course of human reasoning to one of great desperation to succeed by any means as you're judged basically by your outcomes. Well, allow me do some reorientation.

Some weeks ago, the world was held aback by the story of one who was listed aw a prospective under-30 billionaire who has one time being involved in fraudulent dealings.

Well as a people, we have lost the value that hard work carries, lost the joy and accomplishment that comes with waiting time and enjoying the process. We have also abused the term smart work to meaning various fraudulent activities, now the mantra have become all I do is legal as long as I succeed.


Let me tell you that if your success is not one that carries value, you ain't successful. People's lives must be touched by your actions positively, your outcomes should be a conglomerate of values you have added to others. Dangote is not the richest man in Africa for selling cement, he is because in the process of doing business, he is favourably and considerably adding values to a lot more people in so many ways.

So Mr Wanna be Success, don't be too overcome by the zest of your desire to be successful, it could lead to being desperate, but be more driven by a desire to add value to others and you'd never go wrong as success is tied to value closely. Add value to all and you won't get success wrong as in our times, the means justifies the end.
Selah!!!
