Your success should never be about any individual

I read an article about someone saying someone called her a nobody and because of that she had to work hard to become a somebody. First of all no one is a nobody, we are all creations of God and that makes you special. Your quest to be successful should never be about anyone. It should be about Allah. Success in this world and the Hereafter.
A young man once said his friends blanked him when he needed financial help because of that he wanted to put his name to be in their faces. When someone makes such statement all I see is pain and bondage. Allah knows best. You want to be financially successful to prove a point to someone or some people. You should forgive people and not hold a grudge against them. A Muslim is not allowed to desert his brother (Muslim) more than three days" . 
Your motivation to be successful should come from a good place. You want to do something so as to be productive. Allah loves productivity and it should never be about anybody. I want to share my successes with my loved ones definately, its not because I want to prove a point to them but because I want to share the joy with them. Some individuals are successful but are not contented. Some are contented with what they have but they know that there is always a room for growth and that is what it should be. Focus on enjoying successes from the inside. You should aim for your successes for the sake of Allah. The ultimate goal should be the Hereafter.

 Everything should be done deliberately for the sake of Allah. Part of doing something deliberately for the sake of Allah means hoping for a reward from Him(in this life and the Hereafter). Everything happens according to the will of Allah (you have freewill and are responsible for your actions).

The scope is your strategy must be fit, in other words your strategy must be consistent with the environment your business operates in. When I say environment, I am talking about both external and internal environments. Thus, you must understand the political, economic, socio-cultural, technological and legal environments your business operates in. The environmental protection that affects your organisation must also influence you when formulating your strategy. Therefore, PESTEL analysis can be used to understand the external environment of your business. The internal environment also needs to be understood, as your strategy must also be in alignment with the internal environment. Understanding your internal environment will help you know the resources your business has, the capabilities of your business as well as the structure and system.
