GREAT PEOPLE

GREAT PEOPLE
By. Darju Prasetya
In general, great people born from simple families. Maybe it's with simplicity that can make them a strong person.
Great people was born from simple families. With simplicity as a cure, you will be able to achieve success and greatness.
I believe that the nature of great people are born from a simple family. Maybe that is why great people are resilient and have a lot to achieve greatness and success. They don't have distractions in their way as they build and achieve their destiny.
The family environment is very important to the birth of a great person, some even say that in general all the great people were born from simple families. Although these simple families are full of love for one another, the rearing of their children are different because they do not go to luxury schools or take trips abroad, but most importantly they have a good relationship with each other.
Although many successful people came from a simple family, it shows that they have to work hard to achieve the greatness they want. They don't have it from a hand of miracle.
The best sauce for a simple dish is the great personality of a simple person. We cannot neglect the influence of parents, family and friends that these people have growing up.
May people are ignorant of the success and greatness achieved by others. Such people who reached to the top of a certain field had been living a simple life before that. Success doesn't come easy. It requires hard work as well as dedication, not coming from an extravagant family which makes a person aspire more in life and become successful.
People say a great leader should have a family with good discipline and values. Makes him a good role model for the people he leads. A great leader is usually born and not made, because it is in his bloodline that makes him a winner.
Opportunities do not come with a price tag. Social class is irrelevant, Greatness is free.
I am often fascinated by the successful people of this simple family. Because besides they have a strong and resilient personality, but also after success they usually live in simplicity. They don't feel proud with their big name.
A bunch of great people have lived a remarkable life. They make history, but don't feel proud with their success. Its just what they do and share with other people freely.
When I wrote about Great People, the article on Warren Buffett, I was so impressed by the way he lives his life. Even though he's very rich, he still lives in a simple house. He doesn't own too many extravagant things either. In addition, I read an article about Sir John Templeton who is a legendary American global investor and philanthropist. Once during WW II, Sir John and his wife were chased by a German officer and soldiers. He told his wife to give them some money, jumping over a fence and running into the farm to feed the pigs while his wife waited in panic at the side of the road. Unlike other notable persons, he didn't have any fancy cars or houses. This proves that when one has achieved success, it doesn't necessarily mean that one will live a luxurious life.
Simplicity is what can make people big and successful.
