Solution
The Will to Win
Good Morning to all teachers and my dear friends. The topic before us today is The Will to Win'.
This title brings to my mind the story of the hare and the tortoise. When the hare challenged the tortoise to a race, the tortoise knew very well that its speed of travel was in no way comparable to that of the hare. Yet this little animal agreed to the race. And why, may I ask you? Only because it had the will to win. Come what may, the tortoise had to prove to the hare that it could win if it wanted to. And finally, it won!
This, in fact, is the driving force behind all great ventures and achievements. The Will to Win!
I remember the time when I went to Std. V. My father had been transferred from Agra to Bhusaval. A subject that I had trouble mastering was the language Marathi. Needless to say in the first term I flunked very badly. But I was a student who usually scored high marks in all subjects. This failure was devastating.
However, I did not let it faze me. I took a great interest in-class lessons. Read my Marathi textbook over and over. Made friends who spoke fluently in Marathi and ventured to speak to them. At first, they poked fun at me. But within a month I had picked up the basic structure of the language and began writing answers to questions on my own. Believe it or not. at the end of the term, I topped the class in Marathi. Today I can speak in the language as if it is my native tongue.
Friends, my message to you today is that you can do anything. All you require is the will. If you have the will, the skill will follow. So set your goals, define your objectives and I wish all of you the very best in whatever you decide to do in life.
Be sure of one thing: If you have the will. You Will Win!
Thank you.
