"The history of world is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves......."

Very often we find people blaming(there are very few exceptions) one or the other (country , organization , System , People) for deficiency to provide opportunities for their growth or gnarling how bad the things are going on in the system when compared with the global scenario.One thing must be kept in mind that is we should not forget our history. Whatever the things happening today are the outcomes of the undertakings by people based on their visions or thoughts about the future.The fate of the system to flourish or degrade depends upon how the next generations carry their visions,actions and improvise them. So whatever leaders do today will manifest in the future .Thats the importance of History.we study history because it is the reason for what is happening at present.If we want a very bright and magnificent future we should learn from past and implement now for future.So what I would like to emphasize is ,its good to expect the system to work at the best and deliver , but its best to act to make the system deliver the best.Every single step or action we take now can make the future how we wanted to be.We should try to correct the shortcomings in the system because of the lack of vision of our precedents rather than just hoping for the best.That makes one leader.Leader is one who has the right vision for future and act now.Instead of blaming for lack of opportunities it better to look and create opportunities . If the person has proper vision and confidence in himself he can pursue the path which might be different from what others are doing , some people may object including friends and family,yet to pursue the path he should have confidence in himself.Such people alone can create history and remain in the golden pages of history.Take any historical person; they become great because they have done things which are different and had confidence in themselves in achieving them.Whatever the change brought in society or system is by such people.At the same time we should be able to visualize in the right direction.Both Hitler and Gandhi are great leaders ,both are very influential, Hitler is a great orater and was able to lead lots of people and took bold steps but the vision he had is about the supremacy of Nazi race which is not very appreciable.On the other hand Gandhi's vision of Independence through Non-Violence and Peace is for the welfare of nation and millions of people of different races,religions,sects.What we need today in India are such leaders who have courage ,wisdom and confidence to attempt to bring positive change and contribute to development of nation and giving better nation to future.We should thrive to give legacies which the future generations feel proud of rather than wasting our energy in unproductive( every activity has some productivity but how much vast it is should be looked up) matters.Take responsibility of our future . Remember that we make our future and we do have choices and have confidence and courage to go for our dreams and evolve as a higher person whom our nation should feel proud of.
