Optimism, the core of Dhirubhaism
August 21, 2007
'Hope is your most powerful weapon' he pointed out, in his acceptance speech as The Dean's Medal was awarded to him by the Wharton School of Pennsylvania. Even when he was accepting this high honour, he was reaching out and infusing optimism in the minds of the average Indian middle-class person.
That was the most wonderful quality of Dhirubhai. He never patted himself on the back, but used every award and recognition he was given to illustrate to the many out there that success was within reach if you tried hard enough. If one Dhirubhai can do so much, just think what a thousand Dhirubhais can do for this country.
