Inner Truth: Live life with courage

Have we ever thought about similarities between cricket and our real life? Maybe not ! Every time a six or a boundary ​is hit by a player, there is a huge roar and celebration in stadium. However not all the batsmen have the courage and power to hit a six, because for that one needs extraordinary skills as well as a focused mind. In real life, ​there are ​some people who are always nervous and on the backfoot while leading their lives and then there are also other kind of people who are always on the front foot and ever ready. Of both the cases, the former kind of people always end up leading a miserable life because constant worry of the next moment drains away their will power to take bold steps in life and hence, they keep on playing defensive shots thereby surviving only on singles all their lives. On the other hand, if the same players put greater power of self-belief in their strokes, then they might just pleasantly surprise themselves to discover their ability to sweep the ball across the boundary.This can be achieved by having a self belief that life is a game which has to be played with perpetual enthusiasm in order to cross the hurdles easily. So, let’s be courageous enough and move forward with big shots and wait for life to give you more.
