‘I AM A self-made person.’ There cannot be a more arrogant and selfish statement than this. People who say this do not value the contribution of others. A number of people help us become successful. Some help us indirectly. Our parents, our teachers, our friends and workplace colleagues, all contribute to make us successful, but indirectly. Sometimes they become a hurdle to our progress. But by and large they are the reason why we stand on our feet and become successful in life. These people are the strong foundation of our lives.
