Sitting idly at home, even my fingers have put on weight! Too lazy to type i started using a prototype speech to text convertor..My first attempt at that was awful.. so returned to old fashion key press text inputs now...While thumbing through the daily newspaper, one of my usual morning chore, something caught my eye and made me to not just skim through it but to read through which i seldom do :) . Yes the column about the "outrageously talented", as the article described, the great Roger Federer.
People say that when a man has the will , the will to reach and remain at the top combined with the attitude of stop not till the goal is reached fueled by the motivation ,none can beat him.. .The apt person I can ever think of is Roger Federer.Having equalled Pete Sampras' record of 14 grand slams, his tryst with destiny came in the most unexpected of times one can ever imagine!. That it happened without having to combat formidable rivals like Nadal, Djokovic and that he had won only one fairly minor tournament in 2009 season is surely the will of the fate .....or is it....!
Things like these surely linger long in my mind. None can deny how supreme he is in his field for reining supremacy in todays competitive sports environment is quite a daunting task .Now any smidgeon of doubt one had for this swiss mans's ability on clay is settled once for all. But ever wondered how he achieved this jewel? Yes having successively lost three finals at Roland Garros, he was able to pull this time without Nadal or any usual rival up against him... i wonder is this what people refer as luck?
Still some ardent fans may argue he would anyways have won this time, i m skeptical for without his fate on his side that day things might have been different!...or same as i can put too ! ( ie losing in clay finals)!. It is this what we refer to as luck.. the TIME and LUCK on their side.. no wonder you would have guessed whom i am talkin about too by this time...
No matter how much effort u put in doin certain things., there s always an element of luck.. none can deny this too.. as the saying goes ......" Success is 99% hardwork and 1% luck".... i have sensed most of the time its that 1% which gives completeness and is hard to come by for some most of the time afterall LUCK has the uncanny nature of favouring those who dont depend on it~!
People quote sayin Hope and Wait is what keeps the earth spinning! but i cant say this for people who say this must have had that 1% with them.. obviously i m devoid of that now..Anyways i always cherish this line though it never happened to me " put in your 99% work, rest 1% is the gift u get coz of that!".. wish i never had that 99% completed or i depend on that 1% more!!! watever!.. As with Federer, how his tryst with destiny came in unusual time, its the patience which we all may be needing in times of this to see our tryst with destiny. Guess my tryst with destiny shouldn be long else my blogs will be flooded :)! anyways hope i conveyed the message to all the fortunates out there... beware our time too ll come!
Anyways to part with this post .. always remember to ........................."HAIL THE FORTUNATES"...!!!.. so long ...
