Success is not a solo journey
We have heard this saying that behind every successful man there is a woman, and I believe that behind every successful person there is someone or the other without whose support that success would not come easily. Today we see the big CEOs and Directors of companies gaining name and fame, they have dedicated themselves entirely to the company they are working for giving their best day and night. But to think of it, is that the only job they have in their life, don't they have families to take care of, their children, wives, parents what about them. So in short, someone must be stepping in for them to take care of all those responsibilities, and most of the time it must be their spouse.
When one gets committed to a certain goal in life, it is possible that they may be over-looking or neglecting other areas of life, which may be getting taken care of by some one else. It can be their parent, child, spouse, sibling, friend anyone. When they get successful they are praised and appreciated, but the person in the background never gets the same appreciation or recognition.
I worked in big corporates for many years and I always saw the leaders picking up big awards and being praised, and I always thought that would that success be possible for them without the commitment of people working under them. So who is the real one to be awarded. Their leadership has surely paid a big role in the success but without a good team leadership is also ineffective. When a child grows up and becomes successful, no one sees the sacrifices that the parents must have made to make that success happen.
I am not saying that every successful person has a hand behind them, it is possible that they may have independently worked on it in every possible way with no support in back-end also, these are some geniuses. But majority of the times there is someone who is standing like a pillar to support them. A family's support is very important for a person to do things that they aim to do in life.
Behind every successful story there is a individual or team of supporters.

@nainaztengra, this is such a thoughtful and important perspective! You've eloquently highlighted the often-unseen support systems that fuel success. It's so true that behind every celebrated achievement, there's often a network of individuals making sacrifices and contributions that deserve recognition. Your corporate experience really shines through, adding weight to your observations about leadership and teamwork. The analogy to parents supporting their children's success is powerful. It's refreshing to see a post that encourages us to look beyond the individual and appreciate the collective effort behind success. Who are the unsung heroes in your life that have helped you along the way? Thank you for sharing this gem!
