Ndanan kom guigou daar la, falla xalehyi day jangay ehgg... that's Wolof, and my point being:
From once you become an iconic figure for what you do, you'll more than likely be a standard by which excellence in that thing's measured. You'll be like a slanted tree, or a sloped surface if you like.
Hence, it wouldn't be unusual for newbies who are dying to sit at the big boy table to learn to climb through you. Some will prefer to lean on you, others will rather dare take you on like they got that kinda juice. Some will send eulogies your way for being a needed drive, others will scornfully make an equal of you. If you ask me, let it slide. It's quite a feather in your cap to be such an icon.
