A Mantra for Success: From a Meeting with International Scholars

During the concluding moments of a meeting with the delegation from a foreign university, one of the professors shared a powerful mantra. His words impacted deeply:

born in the city, growing with the city, prospering by the city, and proud of the city

This simple yet profound statement reminds us of an essential truth: personal success is deeply intertwined with the progress and development of our country. To truly thrive as individuals, we must align our personal dreams and goals with the advancement of our nation. When we work for our country’s growth, we not only elevate ourselves but also contribute to the betterment of our entire community.

Personal Growth and National Progress Go Hand-in-Hand

This mantra serves as a reminder that we all have a responsibility toward our country. Our personal achievements are sustainable when they are rooted in the well-being of our nation. Whether we are entrepreneurs, professionals, or students, the growth of our country should be at the heart of our vision.

In every step of planning our careers or personal success, we must ask ourselves: How does this benefit my country? When our goals reflect the larger goal of national progress, we lay the foundation for both personal and collective advancement.
