The Leaders

We miss them.Ever
since the day we had gained our freedom.There is practically no one that stood up for something that did not decree as personal gain .Every time somebody made something,he exploited it for his good.That emanated from the capitalist mentality that is so rampant in the Occident.It is unfair though,that leaders who are one of us,should be given the burdens but scoffed at when it came to privileges.The borders of exclusivity
had to be defined,because of duplicability that threatens the innovative credits of the architect.If they fail they are trodden upon like ants on the floor.If they succeed well they are revered and pinned up on our walls as leaders.


Mark Elliot Zuckerberg did something that stood out in front in contrast to the corporate sleazeball.He was not one of those suited up success hungry businessman.
He was a simple person who stumbled upon the idea of one of the most popular networking websites in the Internet.The fact that he did this when he was a student only elaborates the desire of the well oiled brain.Fame,fortune and recognition as such followed him like he was the pied piper.
It was maintained that he did this for fun,and while that emerged to be an company with enormous potential,the simplicity and the appeal caught many an eye in the Internet.
Now that is a leader.One who works for passion and not motivated by money.That freedom allows the inventor to be free and the genius works tirelessly as such.
Leaders create and innovate in an environment of bliss.Its pathetic that there are only a handful who do that.The makers of the first mobile network in England,the inventors of 2-D and 3-D gaming all succeeded.Because they had the free spirit in common.That stands in contrast to the generations in India.A recent question rides in the mind of many,can our own future entrepreneurs pioneer something like above?
Needless to say,the social network concept is as brilliant as they come.Brain-child's like these don't need to be marketed,as they do well on their own.The closest such analogy is Lalit Modi's IPL.but he is no spring chicken when you talk about young entrepreneurs.That is because,unlike in India where genius evolves by cut throat competition,in the west it is nourished and if not innate,genius is acquired.Here,the sole ultimatum is to earn a cartload of money that one seeks to spend in a lavish and
happy life for him and his family.Here kids are bred so as to be earning units for their parents.A walking ATM,so to speak.Unlike in the West,where the mature offspring is not a dependence of the parent,but with age becomes more of a platonic relative.As much as we would like to harp about the values of our own cultures,how the young are respectful to the old;these are not compatible with the life that advances along in the west.
Its sad,that the root of such problems is not just mentality to study and think about paychecks,(rather than fulfillment of abilities) but is also connotative of the standards of living.As i mentioned before,genius is nurtured,instead of thrown in fierce competition in the West.That along with the general sense of security with regards to health and wealth.That also adds leverage to the working spirit which is not damped by burnout or lack of interest due to mundane jobs that spiral in the grooves of monotonicity.
It is as such justified to say that to expect such creative brilliance from one of our own is very difficult.There also has to be a lot of luck.Because more often that not,its luck that turns brave-hearts and heroes in what we call....
