The Importance of Having a Good Name
"Wisdom!". A voice is heard and a boy named Wisdom turned his attention to the direction of the voice. Something stimulated that action and the thing is Name. A name is an identity placed on all creatures either living or nonliving with the aim of identification.
According to the definition, I used all creatures because everything that exist on Planet Earth has a distinct name. Coming to the world of human beings, the humans cherished their name. People perform feats which enables their name to be mentioned among the good ones. The question is why is good name important? Let's find out together.
Why Makes A Name Valuable and Important |
|---|
A name is said to be valuable and important if the bearer has possessed good values. That's why a hoodlum's name can't be categorized under valuable name. Another factor is wealth. Wealthy men and women are freely categorized under valuable names.
Do I Believe That's a Person's Reputation is more better than Material Wealth |
|---|
I strongly believe that a good name is far better than material wealth. In the contemporary society, people will either choose material wealth and despise good name. It is important to note that name works in the principle of key and padlock. A wise man once said that a good name is a key and a bad name is a padlock.
Permit me to give an illustration. An applicant was being interviewed in the interviewing room. The interviewer asked the applicant his full name. He (the applicant) responded and the interviewer heard the name "Jones" as his surname. He (the interviewer) remembered the man to be a good man with high reputation.
He offered the job instantly because of that name. But if it was a name with a bad reputation, the job wouldn't be given out. With this, one will see that a good name helps not only the bearer but his generations ahead.
Which Characteristics Can Contribute In Building a Good Name |
|---|
Several factors can contribute to the importance of a name. These factors include:
- Honesty: Honesty is a pioneer factor that constitute a good name. A honest person is always remembered and that's make it a good name.
- Accountability: A person who is very accountable has a chance to make a good name.
Can a Good Name Positively Influence Personal Relationship and Professional Opportunities |
|---|
A good name has the capacity to influence personal life and professional life positively. It is true that it can influence personal life but I'll lay my emphasis on professional life. Taking my first illustration into consideration, the boy was given the job because of a good name. In business enterprises, good name has the ability to attract more prospective customers. It's the magic in good name that turns a business name to a household name.
Can Good Name be Passed Down Through Generations |
|---|
In this matter, I will say that good name is an inheritance. Using the key and padlock theory, a good name can works wonders through generations.
