ABSTRACT

Man arrived in the world without pre-information of his life- journey and without knowledge of himself and the world and remained in that state until he became conscious of himself and the world. As he became conscious of himself and the world, creative thought and experience have been informing him about himself, the world and his place in it. Knowledge so far acquired has enabled him to embark upon a lot of projects. Courtesy of rationality and experience, conformed by common sense, knowledge and wisdom, the project of all projects man has been working to attain is his well-being. Habu Dawaki, as an agent of history, a continuous student of human nature and a friend of humanity, has taken up the task to show up moral light for man to find his way and thus make a success story of the project of his well-being. The significance of this work is that it will reactivate the will and restore hope in those men and women whose will and hope have remained dormant as they have given up struggle due to a lot of problems they have encountered in their life- journey. Methods of exploration, analysis, criticism, motivation and prescription have been adopted in order to give the topic a deserved treatment.

Key words: Man, Life, Success, Morality and Teaching
