Nollywood actress Uche Elendu has raised a question about how society measures success.
As society becomes more materialistic, how is success measured?
On her Instagram page, she questioned whether money has become the measure of success. She further questioned if every successful person is rich and if every rich person is successful.
“Has money become the measure of success?
Is money really the measure of success?
Let’s hear your thoughts.
Is every successful person rich?
And is every rich person successful?
This is a deeply intellectual conversation, and I know only intelligent people will comment. Your views are important, and it’s you and what you think.
Own it! Let’s hear it”.
In her comment section, Elendu said she believes every rich person is successful, but not entirely, because a successful person must have achieved total life satisfaction to attain that title.
Uche Elendu, however, said there are a whole lot of things to possess to be called successful.
“Well, in my opinion, yes, but not totally, because a successful person must have achieved total life satisfaction to attain that title. If you don’t have money, e remain. But there are a whole lot of other things to possess to be called successful”.
Musician and entrepreneur, Mr Eazi, had advised young men, revealing that marrying a supportive spouse is one of the principles of success. He also shared that discipline, patience and the fear of God are among the keys to success.
Mary Njoku had shared a word of wisdom against pressure. She noted that when one has some fame or a little money, the world suddenly starts telling them how they should live their life. Njoku advised against listening to them, noting that the same people will turn on one when everything goes wrong, and the lights go out.
In an Instagram post, Jason Njoku’s wife admonished the public to stop outsourcing their happiness, to love themselves, to never place the responsibility for happiness on someone else, and to always put themselves first. She noted how life is short.
While weighing in on King Mitchy and VDM’s saga, Mary had questioned whether our generation truly has the capacity to focus on what’s important in their lives and futures. She pondered whether they had collectively chosen distraction over direction, lamenting the level of noise and trivialities competing for attention.
