There is no such thing as a ‘self-made’ man. We are made with the help of thousands of others.



Albert Einstein, world is greatest Scientist, said: "From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men – above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness lies. Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is built upon the labours of my fellowmen, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”
Besides Parents, relatives and friends, everyone who has ever helped us, taught us or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success.
In Stone Age everybody had to pluck his or her fruit himself or herself. But now we live in a civilized world. The food we eat daily is sown and grown by others. Somebody else sowed the seed, watered it for months and years before it is ready for eating. The person who transported this food from remote corners of India and helped to bring the food into our kitchen, and at our dining table, deserve our thanks and gratitude.
So there is no scope of one’s ego that ‘I am a self-made person.’ Much was accomplished before we were born. As soon as we were born, we got air conditioners, cell phones, cars, trains, aeroplane etc which were invented by somebody else. These amenities and facilities helped us to become what we are today.                              
 We should also create history by doing something unique to justify our coming in this world. We should walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the planners, the doers, the successful people who have their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground. Let their help, encouragement and blessings of our parents and the near and dear ignite the fire of ambition in us to do something worthwhile and make to this world better than when we found it at our birth.

Albert Einstein advises us: “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop”.
