Question
Quote the sentences which you find most inspiring from ‘Learning the Game’. How do they inspire you? Explain.
Solution
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar, the world-famous cricketer has set many records in his career and is considered one of the greatest Batsmen of all times. ‘I often tried to emulate the mannerisms of my favorite players, Sunil Gavaskar and the West Indian legend Viv Richards.’ – This is one of the inspiring sentences to me.
If Sachin can emulate and have a role model, how important it is for me to find my role model to pursue my career, ‘Winning the one-rupee coin used to give me immense satisfaction and taught me how to concentrate even when physically drained. ’ – Rewards are surely a big motivational factor. Hence, it is quite important that we fix a target and strive hard even during dire circumstances that we should be focused to achieve in life.
‘I didn’t have the money for a second ticket and I had to learn to take these remarks in my stride. ’ – Life is full of ups and downs. We should never yield to any kind of pressure and give up easily. Life is a mixture of success and failure and the road to success is never a bed of roses. We should be ready to tread on a rough path with many pitfalls. However, we need to be determined and perseverant in our journey. Above all the words from the coach is the most inspiring. It penetrates into your heart to know the purpose of your life. It pierces your heart and makes you be focused and chase your dream. ‘Cricket is waiting for you at the nets. Practice hard and see what magic can transpire.’
