Why does Emerson think that a greater self reliance must work a revolution in all the offices and relations of men?

In "Self-Reliance" Emerson defines individualism as a profound and unshakeable trust in one’s own intuitions. Embracing this view of individualism, he asserts, can revolutionize society, not through a sweeping mass movement, but through the transformation of one life at a time and through the creation of leaders capable of greatness.
