Failure and success are both a part of life. Both are temporary.

There are individuals in India who achieved their goals and made their own luck. They emerged from nowhere, beat the odds by working hard and having confidence in themselves, and set an impossible standard.

Many people have been inspired by their stories to pursue and accomplish their aspirations. They may not have had the same path to wealth as the majority of the "richest" people in the world, but their "rags-to-riches" stories are fascinating.

These are the 10 motivational tales of rags to riches 

1 . Dhirubhai Ambani

Childhood: Bhajia vendor
became: Reliance Industries' founder

Reliance Industries was founded with barely $1000 by the rural Gujarati village teacher's son, and today it ranks among the top 100 global corporations. Nobody could have predicted that a former student of Junagadh's Bahadur Kanji High School, who in the 1960s resided with his wife and children in a one-room chawl, would one day construct his own incredible dream.
 

2 . Dhilip Shanghui

Early career: Drug dealer.
One of the richest self-made billionaires in Asia.

The chief pharmaceutical manufacturer in India is Sun Pharmaceuticals' founder. Few people could have predicted his level of success when he founded his pharmaceutical company in 1983 with just 5 items and 5 employees. When the business started doing nationwide sales in 1987, it was ranked 108th. It currently holds the sixth spot, which is absolutely astounding. 

3 . Narayana Murthy

Early life: Depend on his wife's 10,000 rupee savings
turned into: The Father of the Indian IT Industry

Few people are aware that Sudha Murthy's savings of Rs 10,000 in 1981 were all the founder of Infosys needed to give his vision wings.
 

4 . Karsanbhai Patel
A lab assistant in the Geology and Mining Department in my early years.
The person who created "Washing powder Nirma" became.

Karsanbhai Patel is a good illustration of a self-made person. He was raised in a modest farming family and went on to develop "Nirma" by utilising the four Ps of marketing: product, price, place, and promotion.
 

5 . Patricia Narayan

Selling handmade pickles, jams, and squashes throughout his early years.
Developed into: Owns a chain of eateries in Chennai.

Her tale may come off as the classic "rags to riches" tale. Patricia, then 18 years old, was left to care for her two children while her drug-addicted husband beat her. She began by selling squashes, jellies, and pickles. There was no turning back after that. The 30-year journey that Ms. Patricia took to become a restaurateur was not an overnight success.
 

6 . Indra Nooyi

Early years: working nights to pay for her college education
became: the CEO of PepsiCo, the world's second-largest beverage company.

Indra Nooyi is a strong-willed lady. She left India with very little money to pursue a management degree at the esteemed Yale Graduate School of Management after earning her MBA from IIM Calcutta. She had to scrape together $50 to buy herself a western suit for her first job interview. She worked as a receptionist from midnight to daylight to make ends meet. She began working with PepsiCo in 1994, where she currently serves as chair and CEO.
 

7 . Shah Rukh Khan

Beginnings: I arrived in Mumbai with Rs. 1500.
King Khan became.

Shah Rukh Khan's rise from nothing to the leading man in Bollywood is unique among success stories. In Bollywood, one king reigns supreme!
 

8 . Rajinikanth 

Bus driver in his early years; one of India's biggest stars.

At first, Rajinikanth worked a variety of odd occupations, such as carpenter and coolie. Later, he worked as a bus conductor for the Bangalore Transport Service (BTS). During this time, he saw an advertisement for acting classes at the Madras Film Institute and, against the advice of his family, chose to enrol.
 

9 . Sushil Kumar

Younger years: The son of a bus driver.
Olympic medalist became.

The sport was introduced to Sushil Kumar by his cousin, who quit playing to help Sushil because his family couldn't pay the costs. When Sushil was in Class 2, he engaged in a wrestling match with a boy who was ten years older than him. As a result, his family decided to support him in continuing the sport. And after that, he didn't turn around again.
 

10 . Mohammed Shami

Younger years: Son of a farmer.
Developed into: India's expert in reverse swing.

The voyage of Shami began in the muck.  Sahaspur had no idea that she would give birth to a success tale sweeter than any sugar she had ever produced: that of a skinny, shy young man who was already well-known in the world of cricket for his fast bowling.
