Bhagavad Gita 3.21
यद्यदाचरति श्रेष्ठस्तत्तदेवेतरो जनः। स यत्प्रमाणं कुरुते लोकस्तदनुवर्तते॥
yad yad ācharati śhreṣhṭhas tat tad evetaro janaḥ sa yat pramāṇaṁ kurute lokas tad anuvartate
Translation
Whatsoever a great man doeth, that other men also do; the standard he setteth up, by that the people go.
What it means
Whatever a great person does, others do; people follow the standard they set. Example is the loudest teaching. Every visible life is silently instructing someone.
Try this today
The modeling principle: prominence multiplies behavior. Leadership is teaching whether intended or not.
Something to reflect on
What behavior of mine would I not want copied tenfold?
