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.*****
Reading this prompted a small note in my reference file, and a stop at claritybeforevelocity prompted another, the rare site that contributes useful nuggets to my own working knowledge rather than just consuming my attention is worth the time investment many times over compared to the usual pile of forgettable scroll content.
Came in expecting another generic take and got something with actual character instead, and a look at claritycreatesadvantage carried that personality forward, finding a distinct voice on a saturated topic is impressive and worth pointing out when it happens because most sites end up sounding identical to their nearest competitors quickly.
Now adjusting my mental model of how the topic fits into the broader landscape, and a look at actiondrivenshift extended that adjustment, content that affects my structural understanding rather than just my factual knowledge is content with deeper impact and this site is providing those structural updates at a meaningful rate consistently across topics.
Just wanted to say this was useful and leave a small note of thanks, and a quick visit to claritycreatestraction earned a similar nod from me, the small acknowledgements add up over time and represent the real economy of trust that good content runs on across the open and increasingly fragmented modern internet.
Solid value packed into a relatively short post, that takes skill, and a look at directionalpower continues the dense useful content across more pages, this site clearly understands that respecting reader time is itself a form of generosity which is something most blog operations seem to have forgotten lately across the wider open web.
Probably one of the more reliable sources I have found for this kind of careful coverage, and a look at ideasbecomeaction reinforced the reliability, the small group of sources I would describe as reliable for a given topic is curated carefully and this site has earned a place in that small group through consistent performance.
Glad I gave this a chance instead of bouncing on the headline, and after ideasintosystems I was certain I had made the right call, snap judgements based on titles miss a lot of good content and this is a reminder to slow down and check things out before scrolling past in a hurry.
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at focuscreatespace showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
Took a few notes from this post, the points are easy to remember without needing to come back and check, and a look at focusdrivesexecution added a couple more, the kind of place that sticks in the memory long after the browser tab has been closed for the day which says a lot really.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible take on this topic without the usual marketing nonsense, and a look at momentumguidance kept that grounded approach going, sites that stay focused on serving readers rather than monetising every click are rare and this is clearly one of those rare ones I really appreciate finding.
Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at forwardenergyactivated 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.
If I were grading sites on this topic this one would receive high marks, and a stop at actionwithstructure continued earning those high marks, the informal grading I do mentally for content sources is something I take seriously even though it is informal and this site has been receiving consistent high marks across multiple sessions today.
Honest take is that this was better than I expected when I clicked through, and a look at clarityfirstmove reinforced that, the bar for online content has dropped so much that finding something thoughtful and well constructed feels almost noteworthy now which says more about the average than about this site itself.
My time on this site has now extended past what I had budgeted, and a stop at actionmovesideas keeps extending it further, content that overstays its budget in my schedule is content that has earned the extra time and this site has been earning extra time across multiple visits to the point where my schedule needs adjustment.
Even on a quick first read the substance of the post comes through, and a look at forwardmotionactivated reinforced that immediate quality, content that does not require a slow careful read to demonstrate value but rewards one anyway is content with real depth and this site has produced work of that demanding depth class.
Started imagining how I would explain the topic to someone else after reading, and a look at buildcleartraction gave me more material for that imagined explanation, content that improves my own ability to discuss a topic is content that has actually transferred knowledge rather than just decorating my screen for a few minutes.
Thanks for the moderate length, neither so short it skips substance nor so long it bloats, and a stop at progresswithforwardintent hit the same balance, the right length is one of the hardest things to calibrate in blog writing and I appreciate when a team has clearly thought about it rather than defaulting.
Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at focusdrivenspeed extended that brightness, content that improves a hard day is content that has earned a particular kind of place in my reading habits and this site is occupying that uplifting role for me today which I appreciate clearly.
Skipped the TLDR thinking I would read everything anyway, and ended up enjoying the path through the full post, and a stop at strategycreatesflow 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.
Now considering writing a longer note about the post somewhere, and a look at strategyprogression added more material for that note, content that prompts me to write rather than just consume is content with generative energy and this site is producing that generative effect for me at a higher rate than most sources.
A small editorial detail caught my attention, the way headings related to body text, and a look at ideasneedalignment maintained that careful relationship, structural details like that show up to readers who notice them and the writers here have clearly thought about every level of the piece rather than just the words.
Started reading and ended an hour later without realising the time had passed, and a look at focusleadsaction produced the same time dilation effect, when content makes time feel different the writer has achieved something well beyond the average and this site is producing that experience for me reliably across multiple readings.
Now realising the post has been quietly doing important work in my mind for the past hour, and a stop at growthmovesintentionally extended that quiet processing, content that continues to do work after I close the tab is content with afterlife in the mind and this site is producing those long lived effects at a meaningful rate.
Thanks for a post that does not try to be funny when it is not the moment for it, and a stop at directionbuildsmomentum maintained the same appropriate seriousness, knowing when humour helps and when it just signals desperation for engagement is a sign of editorial maturity that many blogs have not developed yet.
Now feeling the quiet pleasure of finding writing that takes itself seriously without being self serious, and a stop at claritybeforecomplexity extended that subtle pleasure, the gap between earnest and pretentious is fine and this site has clearly chosen to land on the earnest side without slipping over into pretentious which is impressive.
Honest reaction is that I want to send this to a friend who would benefit from it, and a look at buildmomentummethodically added more material I will pass along too, the impulse to share is the strongest signal I have for content quality and this site is generating that impulse cleanly across multiple posts.
Thanks for the breakdown, it gave me a clearer picture of something I had been confused about for a while now, and a stop at growthpathbuilder closed the remaining gaps in my understanding nicely, no need to hunt around twenty other articles to put the pieces together which is a real time saver.
Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at buildprogresswithintent only encouraged more exploration, the kind of place where one click leads to another not through manipulative design but through genuinely interesting content is rare and worth highlighting when found like this somewhere on the open internet.
Now adjusting my mental model of how the topic fits into the broader landscape, and a look at signaloverdistraction extended that adjustment, content that affects my structural understanding rather than just my factual knowledge is content with deeper impact and this site is providing those structural updates at a meaningful rate consistently across topics.
Once you start reading carefully here it is hard to go back to lower quality alternatives, and a stop at forwardpathactivated reinforced that ratchet effect, the way good content raises standards is real over time and this site has clearly contributed to raising my expectations for what is possible in writing on the topic generally.
Different in a good way from the cookie cutter content that fills most blogs covering this area, and a stop at directionunlocked kept showing me why, original thoughtful writing exists if you know where to look and this site has earned a place on my short list of those rare exceptions worth defending.
Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at directionbeforemotion kept the same flow going, you can tell when a writer has thought about how their content reads rather than just what it contains and this is one of those examples.
Even from a single post the editorial care is clear, and a stop at ideasmoveforward extended that care across more pages, the kind of attention to quality that shows up in every paragraph is what separates serious sites from the rest and this one has clearly invested in that paragraph level attention across what I have read.
Picked up something useful for a side project, and a look at clarityenablesaction added another piece I will incorporate, content that connects to specific projects I am working on is content with practical utility and the practical utility of this site is showing up across multiple posts I have read in the last hour or so.
Worth bookmarking and sharing with anyone interested in the topic, that is my honest take, and a stop at forwardintentions reinforces that, the kind of generous resource that makes the open web feel worth defending against the constant pressure to retreat into walled gardens and curated feeds today everywhere I look across all my devices.
Honestly this was the highlight of my reading queue today, and a look at clarityactivatesprogress extended that across more pages I will return to, ranking what I read against what else I read each day is something I do informally and this site keeps moving up in those rankings the more I explore it.
Felt like I was reading something written by someone who actually thinks about the topic rather than reciting it, and a look at forwardmomentumlogic reinforced that impression, the difference between recited content and considered content is huge and this site clearly belongs to the latter category which I appreciate as a careful reader looking for substance.
A small thing but the line spacing and font choices made reading this physically pleasant, and a look at actionbuildsconfidence maintained the same careful design, technical choices about typography are part of what makes online reading actually comfortable and this site has clearly invested in the design layer alongside the content layer carefully.
Picked up several practical tips that I plan to try out this week, and a look at actionturnsideas added a few more I will be testing alongside, content with practical hooks that connect to my actual life is the kind that earns my repeat attention rather than the merely interesting that I forget within a day.
Reading this gave me a small framework I expect to use going forward, and a stop at growthflowswithintent extended that framework, content that produces transferable mental models rather than just specific facts is content with multiplicative value and this site is providing those models at a rate that justifies extra attention from me regularly.
Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at ideasneedclarity 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.
The way the post stayed on topic throughout without going on tangents was really refreshing, and a look at growthmoveswithprecision kept that focused approach going, discipline like this in writing is rare and worth recognising because most writers cannot resist wandering off into related subjects that dilute their main point and confuse readers along the way.
Going to come back when I have more time to read carefully, the post deserves more than a quick scan, and a stop at ideasbecomemovement reinforced that, this is the kind of site that rewards a slower read which is hard to find in this fast paced corner of the internet but really worthwhile.
Quality writing that respects the reader’s intelligence without overloading them, and a quick look at focusdrivenprogression reflected that approach, a balanced thoughtful site that earns trust by being consistent rather than by shouting about how trustworthy it is which is the usual approach online sadly across most content categories.
Honestly the simplicity of the explanation made the topic click for me in a way other writeups had not, and a look at growthadvancescleanly continued that clarity into related areas, when a writer gets the level of explanation right the reader does the heavy lifting themselves and the post just enables it.
Now thinking about this site as a small example of what good independent writing looks like, and a stop at actionturnsvision continued that exemplary status, the few sites that serve as good examples are sites worth holding up in conversations about quality and this one has earned that exemplary placement through patient consistent effort over time.
Quiet confidence runs through the whole post, no need to shout to make the points stick, and a stop at buildtractionthoughtfully carried that same restrained voice forward, content that respects the reader by trusting its own substance rather than dressing it up in theatrical language is what I look for online and rarely actually find these days.
Felt the post had been written without looking over its shoulder, and a look at clarityguidesgrowth continued that confident posture, content written for its own sake rather than against imagined critics has a different quality and this site reads as written from a place of confidence rather than defensive justification of every claim.
During a reading session that included several other sources this one stood out, and a look at clarityguidesmotion continued the standout quality, the side by side comparison of sources during research is a useful exercise and this site has been winning those comparisons for me consistently across multiple research sessions during the last week.
Glad to find a site whose links lead somewhere worth going rather than back to itself for SEO juice, and a stop at focusdefinesdirection kept that generous outbound feel, citing other peoples work with real respect rather than just for ranking signals is a sign of an honest operation worth supporting going forward.
