Ego is a fundamental element behind anyone's defeat or downfall. Mastering in managing it can lead to success, even if one faces temporary setbacks.
Chandrababu is known for his ability to adapt and downsize his ego as needed. In 1983, after challenging his father-in-law NTR, he quietly joined the Telugu Desam Party once it gained power.
By strategically removing obstacles, he emerged as a formidable leader by 1994. Although he was initially shocked by NTR’s sudden marriage to Lakshmi Parvati, Chandrababu remained discreet and used his political skills to rise to the position of Chief Minister.
He sidelined Daggubatis and Harikrishna to clear his path. Despite his occasional boasts about influencing even Prime Ministers, Chandrababu knew when to be submissive to the central government when necessary.
His resilience and strategic maneuvering helped him navigate political turbulence, form alliances, and secure a significant position.
Pawan Kalyan, despite initial skepticism about his party's effectiveness, strategically formed alliances and played a crucial role after Chandrababu’s arrest.
By 2024, he had turned his fortunes around, winning every seat, thanks to his humility and collaboration with former critics.
Jagan Mohan Reddy must learn to adapt and manage his ego. His past five years were marked by narcissistic pursuits and neglect of party workers, believing that power was permanent as long as he continued welfare schemes.
To succeed, Jagan must now recognize the need for political flexibility and humility.
His journey to assert, "I, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy," remains long and uncertain unless he can overcome his ego and join hands with his own party fraternity giving value for everyone.
He has to learn and apply this game rule to attain power.
