There is much we could learn from the late legend.

An unbreakable spirit

From his career, it is evident Vajpayee never gave up even when times were tough. He suffered two setbacks on his path towards becoming a Prime Minister but went on to serve a full term. When problems arose, Vajpayee did not break down, instead, he emerged stronger.

Be independent

Syama Prasad Mookerjee, the founder of Jan Sangha, was Vajpayee’s mentor. Their relationship was like a father and son. However, in 1953, Vajpayee lost his mentor in mysterious circumstances. He was only 29 but despite the void in his life, Vajpayee stayed strong and forged ahead.

Accept criticism

Success is not easy, and Vajpayee too had to face many hurdles during his political journey. Sometimes he made the best choice possible but was still criticized by the opposition. Instead of blindly continuing with his decision, Vajpayee considered the points raised by the opposition and, if needed, made the necessary corrections.

Be tolerant

Whether a debate, argument or disagreement, it is important to listen to another person’s viewpoint. It is possible we are wrong and the other person’s views make more sense. Vajpayee was known to welcome alternative opinions and select the most suitable solution. If it was possible to integrate points of views, he would try and incorporate that into his final decision.
