Lessons from the devil


There is no doubt that there are some creations of Allah are set to harm us. From people to animals to insects. But, Allah’s most evil creation is the devil. He does whatever he can to use as many people as he can as fuel for hell fire.

I think that Satan is the most successful salesman ever. He is selling hell and everyone is buying it. Nobody wants to go to hell yet most of us are doing the right things needed for a VIP membership.

Clearly he is succeeding, but has anyone ever thought of what good we can learn from him? How can we use it to succeed in our careers?

Loyalty: He did not bow down to anyone but Allah. (He did it as a proud defiance to Allah’s command, which is the worst unthinkable thing anyone could do)

Patience: He takes his time to study his target, identifies weak points which he can leverage on, plan his way and waits for the right time before he attacks.

Persistence: He tries over and over again to attack until his prey succumbs to it.

Determined: He has set a goal and he is doing whatever it takes to achieve it.

For you to be successful, you need to have all those traits in you. Be loyal to your organization, study your targets well, identify their weakness, identify an opportunity, offer them solutions, try again and again if you fail until you get it, and be focused and committed on one goal which is the success of your organization.


Once you have these traits in you, nothing but success awaits you!


Satan started with Adam and Eve, look at his clientele now!


Important!
I would like to highlight an important point, this article is just to highlight Satan’s methods and it should not be a justification of doing something evil or harm to anyone. The only difference between us and Satan is in the intentions; he is out to harm us while we should use the same methods to IMPROVE ourselves and others around us. 



Instead of us selling hell, we can sell heaven using the same methods!
