Today, I am no Rebel

To be yourself in this world means to fight the hardest battle you have ever fought and to keep fighting.

Today I understood the real meaning hidden in this sentence. The way of the world is a set path which has to be followed by everybody, no exception. Anybody who tries to deviate or mold this is either pulled back in the name of culture, tradition etc. or given a name. To be an exception, you have to be detached from all the societal & emotional ties. Which is not an easy task because we humans are social being and we need these ties as our support system and the fear of losing these ties keeps us glued to this set path. The one who detaches from these ties and walks his own ways is a Rebel.

..::Posing as Leaders::..

I read an article in blogsmybandra.com, it was very interesting made me think about today's corporate culture and especially Leadres.

A leader has to lead by example, atleast, that what was taught to us. On the contrary what we see in today's organization, is people posing as leaders just to make their flaws and errors go unnoticed. Its not fair to tag todays generation as 'job hoppers', While the companies are at fault too. Many companies today look at star performers as troublesome and just cannot deal with the acumen of the performer; this is a failure on the part of the HR and the company and should not be construed as the failure of the individual.

Where are we headed with this kind of a culture???
