Shah Rukh KhanShah Rukh is at his best always and everywhere - be it acting, or at social gatherings and even at delivering a speech!
Recently, King Khan, gave a 17-minute speech at the IIM-B Alumni Leadership Summit. The talk was so inspiring that the students gave him a standing ovation when he ended his speech.
Speaking about life, passions and leadership skills, SRK touched the hearts of many with a talk laced with wit and humour. “I am no guru in creative leadership, so please bear me with some compassion and patience and do excuse my humour," began Shah Rukh.
Here we bring you top 7 quotes from his speech, which might boost you on your daily work:
» The essence of creativity is the ability to channelise imagination into expression and build from it something new and possibly ingenious.
» The cornerstone of leadership, I believe, is nothing more than cultivating the discipline and courage to nurture and sustain such a mind while constantly calling the bluff of the illusory limits imposed by life.
» To be able to dream unencumbered, to imagine and hang on to a boundless mind filled with ideas so that you never stop renewing yourself and the world around you whether it is your inner world, your consciousness or your outer world that encompasses your profession and your relationships is essential to leadership.
» Life remains ordinary if you are unable to sustain the capacity to work hard on your dreams.
» No matter how hard we work, however, leadership implies being prepared for disaster. And it will come. If it doesn’t hit you like a tsunami washing away your house and home…it’ll show up some other way, as failure maybe, or then by taking away something (or someone) you loved and believed in… so what are you going to do about it?
» A “perfect life” is a farce. God isn’t making utopian ad films and screening them on the clouds to sell it’s USP to you. It’s a man made idea and we’re buying into it all the time. Actually, there is nothing more beautiful than the imperfection of life.
» Be brave enough to face your destiny, to sacrifice for it and compromise for it if you have to. It will always be worth it. To imagine that you know better than life is the silliest (and possibly the most costly) mistake one can ever make.
