As the news breaks in that the 'Daughter of the East' Benazir Bhutto has fallen prey to an act of cowardice and terror on the soil Liaquat park at Rawapindi, one single quality that is worth emulation her courage... One of the tallest leadership qualities be it in politics, business or personal life... courage in the face of life's challenges, utmost adversity and in the face of life threatening situations.
While most of us get fazed by even the smallest trial and tribulation in any front of our lives, and sure many amongst even would get temporarily incapacited to act by minor setbacks, here is a profile in courage... an Oxford educated daughter of Pakistan's former president and tallest leader Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, destined to Pakistani politics after the most gruesome hanging of father by the militia, getting her act together, put behind the bar for many years, sent in exile for a few years and then, the tigress making a comeback... knowingly well that her life is at risk..... despite that, arrives in the country - welcomed by a dastardly suicide attack that almost killed her. Undeterred, she moves on with her goal to restore democracy in a blood-soaked country and alas, no sooner falls to a devilish attack.....
Most of the challenges, are atleast percieved challenges and setbacks we encounter would pall in comparison to the challenges such mass leaders come across and live with in life..... In fact most of the difficult situations in our lives are by imagination in the mind than that in reality.....
Such leaders and incidents, grief apart, should inspire us to take life's challenges head-on and make us pursue our goals steadfast..... That would be the best learning for the future leaders in all of us.... leaders in life, family, organisation.......
