New Delhi, Feb. 21 -- "None can destroy iron, but its own rust can! Likewise, none can destroy a person, but their own mindset can."

This thoughtful statement by Ratan Tata highlights the idea that destruction comes from within and from external forces. It also highlights that, as iron becomes weak through rust, an individual may be talented, capable, and powerful, but a negative mindset, self-doubt, ego, fear, or complacency can gradually destroy them.

Ratan Tata, a renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist and a leading figure in the Indian industry, passed away on October 9, 2024, at 86. As a former chairman of the Tata Group, he inspired many and left behind impactful, memorable statements of wisdom that keep his legacy alive.
