« True success involves nurturing five components: mind, soul, self, heart, and body and prioritizes inner contentment over external validation. »Abdussamad Hamisu Ahmad delivered a powerful reflection on the myth of “ultimate success.” Through his personal journey, he challenged the performance-driven culture that glorifies perfection and status. With honesty and clarity, he invited us to rethink success as contentment, and to recognize discipline as the key to achieving it. His talk is a reminder that peace and fulfillment come not from comparison, but from alignment with one’s own values.Thank you, Abdussamad, for reminding us that true success begins when we stop trying to prove — and start learning to be.
