Many self help gurus preach one can entirely change his life, seems like things aren't exactly that way.

Actually that's exactly how things are. You can change any part of your personality and ALMOST any part of your life to meet your exact specifications. Where there is a will, there's a way.

All people who are "great __________" all started out as a baby. They grew up. They developed principles to guide thier life and they (or someone influential to them such as their parents) set their aim on a certain goal. Then they achieved that goal. This part is easier said than done, but it still can be done.

It doesn't matter whether you want to be president of the united states or if you want to become the first man to land on mars - you can make it happen within your lifetime. The Wright Brothers proved flight was possible by man when no others thought it possible (except Da Vinci). Murderers have changed their ways to become good and caring people.

Unless there is something physically holding you back that is uncurable you are completely capable of becoming the person you want to be. No matter what else.

The only reason a "regular person" can't become a "great leader" is because they are not committed. If you don't have a reason why you absolutely MUST become a "great leader" then you probably won't become one.

No one accidently becomes a black belt.
