Dear All,
 

Let us begin with the words of a Scottish financial journalist, B. C. Forbes: Without self-respect, there can be no genuine success. Success won at the cost of self-respect is not success. For what shall it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and loses his own self-respect?

Self-respect is fundamental to all merits. It permeates all aspects of our lives. We can use it in disciplining ourselves. To us, if we want to be respected, we will have to learn first to respect ourselves, as it comes first from our own inside. Our difficulty is that we do not realise our worth and, therefore, do not consider what we lose when we simply follow others. Losing our identity is no humility. Humility lies in recognising what we are. In fact, true self-respect will make us humble. It will make us think of ourselves neither too high nor too low.

All of us have responsibility towards the society we live in. Let us realise the position of our profession and understand that we should better displease others and do what we know is right than we make others happy by doing what we realise is unjust. It is time to display courage and speak the truth, and acknowledge with zeal what the English playwright George Bernard Shaw had once said: No man, who is occupied in doing a very difficult thing and doing it very well, ever loses his self-respect. We should respect our efforts, and, above that, ourselves. All practitioners of accountancy profession in India must respect their root, i.e. the Institute. We must always identify with our Institute which has given all of us reasons to smile and live with respect in our life. We must add life to the Institute’s standing by respecting and valuing it.

Let our profession stand tall forever with all its glory and heritage.
