PRABOWO!
Oleh Said Muniruddin | RECTOR | The Suficademic
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
“Prabowo!”, terdengar teriakan barista di sebuah cafee. Teriakan itu tidak hanya sekali. Tapi berkali-kali.
“Prabowo!”. Mungkin itu teriakan ke lima kali.
Pengunjung yang sedang antri terkejut. Kok bisa Prabowo pesan kopi disini. Lebih aneh lagi, Prabowonya tidak muncul-muncul.
Tiba-tiba. Seorang perempuan muda yang sedang duduk di depan saya, memberi isyarat. Ia melambaikan tangannya ke saya. Dari gerak mulutnya terdengar ia berkata: “Pak, nama bapak dipanggil”.
Saya ingat, gadis ini ikut antri bareng saya saat tadi memesan kopi. Makanya ia mengingatkan. Ia tau, si barista sedang memanggil saya.
Rupanya pesanan sudah siap. Saya tidak mendengar. Karena kedua telinga saya tersumpal headset. Saya sedang mendengar audio book. Sebuah hobi saat saya sedang sendirian.
Dengan langkah tegap dan penuh percaya diri saya bangun menuju kasir. Lalu berkata, “Iya, benar. Saya Prabowo!”.
Kasir berkata, “Pak Prabowo, ini pesanan bapak sudah siap”. Dia menyerahkan satu paket kopi dan kue, yang tertera nama pemesannya: Prabowo.
“Baik, terima kasih”, saya sebagai Prabowo tegas menjawab.
Sekitar 10 pengunjung yang sedang antri tertegun. Mungkin dari tadi penasaran. Sekaligus heran. Kok wajah Prabowo sudah berubah. Tidak lagi gemoy. Kok sudah berubah menjadi langsing. Lebih ganteng. Lebih mancung. Lebih Aceh. Lebih Arab.

Saudara-saudara sekalian. Prabowo itu banyak. Bukan hanya Prabowo Subianto, presiden Anda.
Saya juga Prabowo. Sebuah nama yang sering saya gunakan saat memesan makanan.
“Maaf, atas nama siapa?”. Begitu biasanya di resto dan cafe, Anda ditanya saat memesan sesuatu. Tentu saya menjawab: “atas nama Prabowo”.
Anda tak harus menyebut nama asli. Itu hanya syarat informal administratif saja. Yang penting Anda ingat nama tersebut. Jangan sampai lupa saat dipanggil.
***
Begitulah. Anda tidak harus menjadi Presiden. Tapi bisa menjadi Presiden. Hanya dengan memilih sama nama dengan Presiden. Khusus saat memesan minuman atau makanan.
Sesekali Anda perlu merasakan, bagaimana kalau seseorang memanggil Anda dalam nama Presiden. Lalu Anda berdiri dan berjalan sebagai Prabowo. Disitulah rasa percaya diri, sekaligus vibrasi sebagai Presiden bisa Anda rasa. Pura-pura aja jadi Presiden.
***
Sebenarnya, misalnya, ketika orang tua memberi Anda nama “Muhammad”, tujuannya agar Anda merasa diri seperti Nabi Muhammad.
Bayangkan, nama “suci” Muhammad disebut di era moderen. Lalu Anda bangkit sebagai ‘pengganti’, ‘pewaris’, ‘penerus’, atau representasinya. Anda harus bangga dengan nama itu. Anda harus merasa bahwa Anda -pada kadar tertentu- adalah sosok “Muhammad” yang agung itu.
Nama itu doa, agar Anda menjadi seperti orang yang dinamai. Anda harusnya punya koneksi dengan si pemilik nama. Karena itulah, dalam tradisi lokal keislaman, orang tua kita memberi nama anaknya dengan nama para nabi. Mereka berharap, anaknya punya rasa confidence untuk berlagak dan berkarakter menjadi ‘nabi’.
Kenyataannya, kita sering lupa dengan nama kita. Lupa dengan nama yang kita bawa. Sehingga hilang rasa percaya diri. Hilang karakter baiknya.
Nama itu doa. Kalau kita bisa merasakan makna, spirit dari wujud, atau ruh orang yang kita bawa bersama kita. Makanya beri nama yang baik kepada anak Anda.

“Prabowo”, begitu panggilan barista. Lalu saya bangun dengan percaya diri. Seolah-olah mereka sedang memanggil presiden mereka. Dan itu adalah saya.
Dan siapapun presiden setelah ini, itu juga nama saya, setiap memesan sesuatu. Ingat ya, itu nama “kunyah” (panggilan) saya, hanya saat memesan sesuatu di cafe atau resto. Tujuannya satu, biar sesekali saya terkoneksi dengan setiap presiden di negara ini. Biar saya juga tau, bagaimana rasanya kalau saya jadi seorang presiden.
Leadership is confidence. Leadership is connection. Leadership is visualization. Leadership is sometimes all about imitation.
Nama adalah doa. Nama adalah cinta. Nama adalah asosiasi. Nama adalah imajinasi. Hanya lewat nama, kita menjadi berbeda.
Kami di The Suficademic Supertraining mengajari anak-anak Anda bagaimana cara percaya diri lewat nama. Lewat asosiasi. Lewat imajinasi. Lewat visualisasi. Lewat keyakinan dan hubungan. Lihat video-video training kami disini: https://www.tiktok.com/@saidmuniruddin?_r=1&_t=ZS-96qbomNxA5B
Allahumma shalli ‘ala Muhammad wa Aali Muhammad.*****
Picked a single sentence from this post to remember, and a look at directionpowersresults gave me another to keep, content that produces memorable lines is doing more than just transferring information and the small selection of sentences I keep from each reading session is one of the actual returns I get from reading carefully.
Closed the post with a small satisfied sigh, and a stop at clarityfuelsaction produced the same gentle exhale, content that ends well is content that respects the rhythm of reading and the writers here have clearly thought about how their pieces close rather than just trailing off when they run out of things to say.
Felt the writer was being honest with the reader which is rare enough that I want to acknowledge it, and a look at visionguidesmotion continued that honest feel, content built on actual knowledge rather than aggregated summaries is something I value highly and rarely come across in regular searches on the open internet these days.
Really like that the writer trusts the reader to follow simple logic without restating every previous point, and a stop at momentumdesignlab kept that respect going, treating an audience as capable adults rather than as people who need constant hand holding makes a noticeable difference in the reading experience for me.
Granted my mood today might be elevating my reading experience but I still think this is genuinely good, and a stop at personalvista reinforced that even discounted assessment, controlling for the mood adjustment that affects content perception this site still reads as substantively above average across multiple pieces I have read carefully today.
A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at progressbuilder continued that calm engagement, content that can address contested topics without inflaming them is doing rare diplomatic work and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to handle sensitive material with the appropriate temperature of writing throughout.
Closed the laptop after this and let the ideas settle for a few hours, and a stop at buildmotiondaily similarly rewarded reflective time, content that benefits from sitting with rather than racing past is the kind I want more of and the kind that this site appears to consistently produce week after week here.
Thank you for the genuine effort here, it shows in every paragraph and not just the headline, and after my visit to creativeinkwell I was sure this site cares about getting things right rather than chasing clicks, which is the main reason I will come back later this week to read more.
Skipped the TLDR thinking I would read everything anyway, and ended up enjoying the path through the full post, and a stop at growthmoveswithfocus similarly rewarded the patient read, summaries are useful but the journey through good writing is part of what makes the destination feel earned rather than just delivered cleanly.
Great work on keeping things readable, the post never drags or repeats itself which I really appreciate, and a stop at strategyintoenergy added a bit more context that fit naturally with what was already said here, no need to read everything twice to get the point being made today.
Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at directionenablesmomentum reinforced that commitment, content that models the kind of attention it deserves is content that calibrates the reader and this site has clearly raised my own bar for what to bring to good writing today.
Generally my attention drifts on long posts but this one held it through the end, and a stop at signalguidesmotion earned the same sustained focus, content that defeats my drift tendency is content with substantive pulling power and this site has demonstrated that pulling power across multiple pieces in a session that has now run quite long actually.
Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at claritycompass extended that feeling across more pages, the test of whether time on a site was well spent is one I apply silently after closing tabs and very few sites pass it but this one passed it cleanly today afternoon clearly.
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at signalbasedgrowth kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
Beats most of the alternatives on the topic by a noticeable margin, and a look at progressoveractivity did not change that at all, this is one of the better corners of the open internet for this kind of content and I am glad I clicked through rather than skipping past quickly like I usually do.
Looking back on this reading session it stands as one of the better ones recently, and a look at clarityactivatesmotion extended that ranking, the informal ranking of reading sessions against each other is something I do mentally and this session ranks high largely because of this site and a couple of related pages here.
Compared to the usual results for this kind of search this site stands well above the average, and a quick visit to movementwithmeaning kept the standard high, you can tell within seconds whether a site is going to waste your time or actually deliver and this one clearly delivers without any false starts.
Useful read, especially because the writer did not assume too much background from the reader, and a quick look at modernpixels continued in the same way, a thoughtful site that meets people where they are which is something the modern web could use a lot more of for both casual and serious readers.
A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at growthpathwaynow continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
My friends would appreciate a few of these posts and I will be sending links accordingly, and a look at focuspowersgrowth added more pages to my share queue, content that earns shares to specific people in specific contexts is content with social utility and this site is generating those targeted shares from me consistently lately.
Now planning a longer reading session for the archives, and a stop at actionpathway confirmed the archives are worth that longer commitment, sites with archives I want to read deliberately rather than just sample are rare and this one has clearly earned that level of interest based on the consistency of what I have already read.
Found a small mental shift after reading this, the framing here is just a bit different from the standard takes online, and a look at claritydrivenpath extended that fresh perspective across more material, the rare site whose voice actually changes how you think about something rather than just confirming existing beliefs.
Reading this gave me the rare experience of fully agreeing with all the conclusions, and a stop at ideasneedactivation continued that agreement pattern, content that aligns with my existing views without seeming designed to do so is just content that happens to be reasonable and this site reads as reasonable rather than ideological mostly.
Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at forwardmovementengine kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.
Appreciate the work that went into laying this out so clearly, every section earns its place without filler, and a look at brightfusion confirmed the same care, definitely the kind of place that deserves a return visit when the topic comes up again later in the future or for any related question.
Started taking notes about halfway through because the points were stacking up, and a look at directionanchorsgrowth added enough material that my notes file grew further, content that demands note taking from a passive reader is content with substance and the writers here are clearly producing that kind of work consistently across topics.
Came in skeptical and left mostly convinced, that is the highest praise I can offer, and a look at actionclarifiesdirection pushed me further in the same direction, content that survives a critical first read is rare and worth recognising because most blog posts crumble under any real scrutiny these days when you actually pay attention closely.
Reading this gave me a quiet moment of intellectual pleasure that I had not been expecting, and a stop at directionstartsclarity extended that pleasure across more pages, the unexpected reward of stumbling into careful writing is one of the small ongoing pleasures of reading the open web and this site is delivering it reliably.
Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at visionguidesmotion continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.
Solid endorsement from me, the writing earns it, and a look at actionclaritylab continues to earn it across the broader site too, the kind of operation that maintains quality across many pages rather than just one viral post is a sign of serious commitment and that is what I see here clearly across what I read.
If the topic interests you at all this is a place to spend time, and a look at asianvoyager reinforced that recommendation, the broader question of where to invest topical reading time is one this site answers convincingly through the consistent quality across multiple pieces I have sampled during the current reading session today.
Now appreciating that I did not feel exhausted after reading, and a stop at progressoriented extended that energising quality, content that leaves me with more attention than it consumed is rare and the gap between draining and energising content is real over the course of a typical day spent reading widely online.
Generally I bookmark sparingly to avoid building up a bookmark graveyard but this one earned a permanent slot, and a stop at focusenablesvelocity extended that permanence designation, the few sites I keep permanent bookmarks for are sites I expect to use repeatedly and this one has clearly cleared that expectation bar today.
Now feeling confident enough in this site to use it as a reference point for evaluating others on the same topic, and a look at buildforwardenergy continued the comparison friendly quality, sites that serve as quality benchmarks for their topic are precious and this one has clearly become a benchmark for me on this particular subject area.
Honestly enjoyed every minute spent here, that is not something I say lightly, and a look at signalcreatesmovement confirmed I will be back, the bar for spending time online is high for me these days but this site clears it without effort which is high praise indeed from this reader who is usually rather demanding.
A piece that handled the topic with appropriate weight without becoming portentous, and a look at actiondrivenvelocity continued that calibrated seriousness, content that takes itself seriously without becoming pompous is something this site has clearly figured out and the balance shows up in every piece I have read across multiple sessions now.
Now thinking the topic is more interesting than I had given it credit for, and a stop at progresswithsignalpath continued that elevated interest, content that revives my curiosity about subjects I had set aside is doing genuine work in the structure of my interests and this site is providing that revivifying effect today actually.
Now noticing the post fit a particular gap in my reading without my having articulated the gap before, and a look at actionclarifiespath extended that gap filling effect, content that meets needs I had not consciously formulated is content with reader insight and this site has clearly developed that anticipatory editorial sense across many pieces.
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at clarityshift kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
Will be sharing this with a couple of people who care about the topic, and a stop at progresswithpurpose added more material worth passing along, the kind of site that is generous with quality content and does not make you jump through hoops to access it which is appreciated more than the team probably realises.
Took my time with this rather than rushing because the writing rewards attention, and after happyfamilia I had even more to absorb, the kind of content that pays back the patient reader rather than punishing them with empty filler is something I look for and rarely find in regular searches lately.
Just wanted to drop a quick note saying this was a useful read on a topic I have been circling, no fluff, and a stop at focuspowersgrowth added a few extra points that fit the same simple style which makes the whole site feel coherent rather than thrown together by many different writers with different goals.
Speaking from the perspective of having read widely on the topic this site offers something distinct, and a look at intentionalvelocity reinforced that distinctness, the rare site that contributes something genuinely original to a saturated topic is the rare site worth following carefully and this one has demonstrated that original contribution capability today.
Solid recommendation from me to anyone working in the area, the perspective here is grounded, and a look at ideasgainmotion adds even more useful angles, the kind of site that becomes a reference rather than just a one time read which is a higher bar than most blogs ever reach today on the modern web.
A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at progresswithoutdistraction suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.
Really like that there are no exclamation marks or all caps shouting throughout the post, and a quick visit to ideasintoalignment maintained the same calm voice, restraint in punctuation signals confidence in the content and this site clearly trusts its substance to do the persuading rather than relying on typographic emphasis.
Reading this gave me a small sense of progress on a topic I have been slowly working through, and a stop at momentumunlocked added another step forward, learning happens in small increments across many sources and finding sources that consistently contribute is the actual practical value of careful curation in an information rich world.
Liked the way the post balanced confidence and humility, and a stop at ideaprogression maintained the same balance, knowing when to assert and when to acknowledge uncertainty is a sign of mature thinking and the writers here have clearly developed that calibration through what I assume is years of careful work on their craft.
Took the time to read the comments on this post too and they were also worth reading, and a stop at growththroughsimplicity suggested the community quality matches the content quality, when the conversation around a piece is as good as the piece itself you know you have found a real corner of the internet.
Came in skeptical of the angle and left mostly persuaded, and a stop at progressstarter pushed me a bit further in the same direction, content that can move a critical reader by argument rather than rhetoric is rare and worth pointing out because it indicates real substance underneath the surface presentation here.
