Dr. kalam is by no means a miracle man. His advice to the teenager of the nation is to "dream' dream and convert these into thoughts and later into action “Dream, dream and dream.Then translate your dreams into thoughts and then into action..
.” is President Kalam's favorite mantra. His life itself is an example of this philosophy – rising from a fisherman's village to ending up in the presidential palace and along the way launching a bunch of missiles and winning a few 'Padma' (and Bharat Ratna) awards. His simplicity is remarkable, considering the presidential office in India still has Raj vestiges. (They even had a person just to tie the president's shoelaces.
President Kalam got rid of this humiliating practice.) There are all kinds of stories of his mingling with children and giving them pep talks, and how he drove up to Mrs. M.S. Subbalakshmi's residence to personally present her the Bharat Ratna award.

He is an eleventh President of India and his rise to his present, desired post demonstrates the auspicious working of our extraordinary democracy system. Dr. Kalam is a man of vision and has elevated dreams for Mother India.
Before long in the wake of taking pledge of office as President, he said to his comrades, proclaiming his purpose to make India an improved nation.
