“True goals…Real goals…A legacy that will remain forever. When you see Oprah, do you care how expensive her dress is? Or if she’s wearing luxury brands in shoe or bag? The answer is simply no.
Her essence and portfolio is greater than any of that. She is larger than anything that could be placed on the surface of her.
Oprah could show up in a rice or cement bag and you will still see her as OPRAH.
When you shake her hand, you will hold it tight with two of yours to show respect.
One never needs to mention her last name when referring to her.
If Oprah walks in a room, men, women, presidents and kings will see her as equal.
Her legacy will remain for decades and spew out the mouths of generations to follow, even though she has no children of her own.
Oprah will be celebrated and immortalized in various more forms while she’s alive and even in death.
If Oprah dropped dead this very second, her spirit would reverb round the earth. It would break the internet and clog up the airwaves.
Not for pity of a wasted life or one that could have done so much more, but of one that has given so much and inspired so many by simply working hard and working smart.
Oprah is inspiring others through her insistence to succeed despite the odds. She is showing people that it IS possible.
What a remarkable woman. These are the type of women “I” look up to and aspire to be. Who do you look up to?”

My take…
Dear Nigerian women, who are your role models?
What kind of women do you look up to and wish to be like in the next three, five or ten years?
What goals have you set for your life?
What kind of professional relationships are you building to achieve your dreams?
Who do you want to become?
Think about it.
I will check Oprah on Wiki soon
