SUCCESS = LEAD Yourself!

While watching cable news channel I came across this very unique and eye-catching public service advertisement as part of LEAD India campaign. On busy and bustling street tree has fallen. This has crated traffic jam and chaotic scene. Mass of people is waiting for someone to do some thing, but no one is coming forward. This young school boy who dare the monsoon rain, and try to push this huge tree. Looking at him other street boys of age of 7-10 years join in. People feel ashamed and soon one by one join this young boy in his pursuit to clear the street. Soon together they push this gigantic tree aside and clear the way for stranded traffic.

I do not know how many of those viewers who see this advertisement get inspired to lead their lives of principles and take lead, but a strange current traversed through my body. I felt like hugging this boy for unfolding one of the most important principle of success,"Leading yourself". Most of the time we wait for others to lead, and we just follow, and thus we are called "Followers" and not Leaders. To be successful you need to lead! But, you can only need when, you lead yourself first. Success begins with you. But are you willing to lead yourself to that success which is awaiting you to hug and embrace with grace and pride, and shower unimaginable praise, recognition, and place into hall of success. But to reach there you need to being, and you could only begin if you lead yourself! Thus -

SUCCESS = LEAD yourself!
