Here comes a day in International Cricket, double century in ODI and that too from a man who was never short of any records, any fame, any name. He had already conquered Everest in his cricketing career but still he has the same hunger, love, passion which he had 2 decades ago. What a man!!! What a character!!! What an Idol!!!
While writing this I have goose bums all over my body!! I am glazing my pc screen from almost last 30 mins with hundreds of thoughts, millions of words and struggling to put arrays of words to capture a great maestro. He is definitely beyond the words of any one on this planet.
He seems to me greater than cricket, greater than life itself. I am not one who will going to say what he has done was good, what he needs to do now, what next… I am not capable of saying that but what I read from him is that how he has done that!! Can you imagine that he had stopped whole country billions of people from breathing air while moving from 199 to 200. It required some miracle to achieve what he has achieved so far in the reality. Even world’s most prominent politician also is not capable to achieve that. In the finest of analysis I really feel that he is one of the avatar of lord Krishna!!
“Success is a journey, Not a destiny” Sachin Tendulkar. Yes Indeed success is a journey. It all start with your dream, passion, love, dedication, perseverance. As it shown by him, numbers of feathers getting attached on his head, he is getting that much more humble, down to earth person. He was already a legend, he was already a cricketing God. He had more records than any one on this planet; I could go on and on. He has it all; maybe he always had.
It takes a real character to keep your childhood dream going. He has to nurtured his career in a such manner resembling the master act on its life. He always took the utmost care to keep himself away from all the controversies. Sometimes he just gives answer to everyone without any words. This is what makes him different from almost all around this world!! Take a bow man!!
As said by some saints, “Success stays with the person who has a same level of gratitude to keep his/her feet on the ground”. And he has done that. Just imagine what it takes to keep feet on the ground with the amount of fame/name/success he has!! Kudos to you man!! Best of example I can give here is the Tendulkar trademark to look up to the heavens and thank someone up there for yet another milestone.
Doubtless, each one of the celestial fans, ranging from his father to Bradman, and a whole lot of others would have been standing and applauding an epic. Legends by their nature dominate the sport they take to. Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Pele. The list could go on. But seldom has there been one, who has been pristinely clean. And to me, nothing would devastate me more than if I found something ‘not right’ about Tendulkar. May that day never come.
There is lot more to learn from him not in a cricket field but also on the day to day life!! He is the benchmark of the success, inspiration for many generation going to come on this earth.
