Read a wonderful story recently :
Billionaire Femi Otedola in a telephone interview, was asked :
"Sir what made you really happy in life?"
Femi said:
four stages-
The first stage was to accumulate wealth .
Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items.
Then came the third stage .That was when I was holding 95% of diesel supply in Nigeria and Africa. I was also the largest vessel owner in Africa and Asia.
The fourth stage was the time a friend of mine asked me to buy wheelchair for some disabled children.
At the friend's request, I immediately bought the wheelchairs.
There I gave these wheel chairs to these children with my own hands. I saw the strange glow of happiness on the faces of these children. I saw them all sitting on the wheelchairs, moving around and having fun.
When I decided to leave one of the kids grabbed my legs. I tried to free my legs gently but the child stared at my face and held my legs tightly.
I bent down and asked the child: Do you need something else?
This child said:
"I want to remember your face so that when I meet you in heaven, I will be able to recognize you and thank you once again"
What would you be remembered for after you leave that office or place?
Will anyone desire to see your face again where it all matters?
