In my little years in life, I have seen many people gone without them been remembered for long. Majority have transited from one stage in destiny to another phase yet people do not really feel their
impact after they left and when this happens, that fellow is regarded as a failure.
impact after they left and when this happens, that fellow is regarded as a failure.
Years continually goes and we remember men and women of old that have turned our community, state, nation, continent and the universe at large around because if who they stand for and what they have done and most times we hear their names being tagged to places such as schools, stadia, churches, streets, even nations.
Whenever I hear people mention names like Obafemi Awolowo, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Thomas Edison, Andrew Carnegie, Albert Einstein, Billy Graham, Kenneth E. Hagin, Myles Munroe, among others that have changed the universe around, my heart is always elated and always feel the touch of what my own life is going to look and be like.
Recently, I downloaded a video titled 'How not to emulate Obafemi Awolowo' by Fela Durotoye, a leading speaker in Nigeria and he shared ten values that made Obafemi Awolowo a distinctive hero in Nigeria and having digested those values and seeing that they are the values I have been working by for years even before I came across the video, I felt it is worth sharing.
I want to urge you to take a massive step of building a lasting legacy by abiding with these life-changing values.
VALUE 1:
Make A Positive Impact On Everyone you Meet And Everywhere you Go.
VALUE 2:
Be A Solution Provider And Not A Part Of The Problem To Be Solved.
VALUE 3:
Be A Role Model Worthy Of Emulation.
VALUE 4:
Be The Best In All you Do, Particularly The Things You Are Naturally Good At.
VALUE 5:
Do The Right Thing At All Times Regardless Of Who Is Doing The Wrong Thing.
VALUE 6:
Value Time And Make The Best Use Of It.
VALUE 7:
Care And Show Respect Through Your Words And Actions.
VALUE 8:
Consciously Build A Great Legacy Starting Now, Today And Everyday.
VALUE 9:
Live A Life Of Integrity And Honour
VALUE 10:
Make Your Family, Your Nation And Your God Proud.
Afterthought
These values as they are, are filled with positivities and if they are abide with, one is on a path to having great legacy even after transition to another phase of life.
