A subtle difference, Ekla Chalo Re says, If no one comes with you to support you or ask you for support....A self Starter doesn't look for support. in the first place. He takes initiative without needing to be told.

There is a saying- Jungle me more (Peacock) naacha kisne dekha? Who cares if a peacock danced in a jungle alone. What if I started alone and landed at north pole with no one to acknowledge my achievement. Self start is fine but people should know you're doing something for them and not for your personal interest only.

I agree. A Self Starter should do useful things not only for himself but to the Society. You are very right in saying who cares if a peacock dances in a far off remote Jungle ? Kudos to you.

The thread has hardly anything worthwhile for discussion because one cannot go on promoting oneself calling oneself a self starter !!!!...Thats how it looks to me, more a self promotion thread that has very little scope for discussion !

I think we have had enough discussion on this topic so thread is locked.
