“Success should flow like water through rocks” – Life of Sri. Narendra Modi is a perfect example for this. Coming from a very humble back ground he became the prime minister of world’s largest democracy. It is no easy task to reach heights in Indian politics which is dominated by dynasty, caste & monetary influence. No Indian would have ever imagined about a simpleton like Modi becoming Prime Minister. He is the first Prime Minister born after independence of India and the first non-congress person to become PM with full majority in Lok Sabha. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) had a major role in influencing Modi, his character & his growth. He became ideal Pracharak of RSS. There are some qualities of Modi which are important for success in any field.
Courage
Modi has to face several challenging circumstances which he faced with undeterred courage.The most important quality to become a leader.
- Modi was introduced to RSS at a very young age of 8 years as Bala Swayam Sevak (junior cadet). RSS inculcates the readiness to face any situation bravely & Modi had that.
- In 1975 during emergency at the age of 25 he bravely led agitations against government to protect democracy.

He has undeterred dedication in
- Upholding values of RSS
- Implementing principles of BJP

The results are visible

- Not caring the death threat of terrorists, Narendra Modi along with senior leader Sri. Murali Manohar Joshi unfurled national flag in Laal chowk, Kashmir on republic day,1992 after genocide of Kashmiri Pandits.
- Modi adapted a zero-tolerance policy on terrorism much contrary to his predecessors. Terror activities were handled with iron fist as evident by the surgical strikes of 2016 in retaliation to Uri terror attack. In 2019, Ariel strikes happened on terror hideouts in Balakot, Pakistan.
- True patriotism is also reflected by the actions of promoting “Make in India” initiative with efforts like “Atma Nirbhar Abhiyan”, “MUDRA”, “STANDUP-INDIA”, “SKILL- INDIA” etc. to make India “Vishwa Guru” – world leader.
Honesty
This is probably the most important quality of Narendra Modi which no other politician can match. Corruption is a common feature of Indian Politicians. Here is a leader under whose tenure of 20 years as CM and PM there was not a single scam.
Modi said and stood up to his words “Na Khaoonga, Na khane doonga”– “I will not eat or allow others to eat”
Even hard-core critics or opposition leaders accepted the fact that Modi was, is and always will be honest.
Own siblings of Modi work for their livelihood and lead simple life.
People of India saw a different leader who was working with utmost honesty for welfare and development of every Indian and gave a bigger result second time.
Balanced State of Mind
It was not an easy path for Modi ji. He has to face obstacles in the party and also outside. Due to frictions with other party leaders, he took a hiatus from politics in 1992, returning in 1994.
With great success comes great attention and this was responsible for the unnecessary and false allegations which he has to face many times. The more successful he became, the more active was the false prejudiced propaganda.
He turned every brick-bat into a brick for his growth. He worked harder with a balanced mind. Resulting actions were replies to such malicious propaganda. From being rejected American visa to getting invited for US presidential campaign shows the work and dedication of Modi.
He had such a balance in handling all such criticisms, hardships and obstacles which is much needed for any one in life.
Emotional Connectivity
Narendra Modi has a strong emotional connectivity with needs and sentiments of India. This is reflected in decisions, policies and actions of Modi government.
- Was there any leader of nation who ever even thought about problems faced by women due to lack of toilets, gas stoves and tapped water and addressed the issues?
