“Whoever said, it’s not winning or loosing that counts, probably lost”. The moment I went through this quote given by ‘Martina Navratilova’, it forced me to ponder over the fact that… Yes, it is quite important to win.
However we have been thought that participation is equally important. Even if we don’t win it does not matter… because at least we tried your best and were among the competitors.
But contrary to it, this quote states that winning has to be our ultimate aim. It reminds me of Henry Russell Sanders (football coach), who in 1950, at a Cal Poly San Luis Obispo physical education workshop told his group “Men, I’ll be honest, Winning isn’t Everything” then following a long pause “Men, it’s the only thing”.
Do we remember one who looses? No, we onlystandby the winners, cheer for them and the one who looses is nowhere in the lights. Winners are the one who grab the gold and their laurels are sung high. Winners are the ones who are recognized, remembered and adored.
So, each one us should aim to win. But it does not mean that we can apply any method good or bad. Unfair means to attain victory can never be appreciated.
Hence be optimistic, pull up your socks, strive hard and put your 100% effort to grab the gold and feel the power of being a WINNER.

I'll quote one line of harivansh rai bacchan from poem 'cactus' "kisi vivashta se khilta hoon khulne ki saadh to nahi hai , jag mein anjana reh jana to koi apradh toh nahi hai".
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm not a winner.
But I think winning does not have single dimension.
