We are familiar with movies in which hero becomes a millionaire or a millionaire becoming a beggar overnight. While one is a lottery kind the other is a horrible experience. This is something which we take as an entertainment and watch it in movies on big screen. But there are many instances in which one experienced such situations.
Ones life is never predictable. You may be on the top sometime dominating everyone but on the other side of the coin you may have to experience the situation where the others tend to dominate you. If you are balanced and taking everything in a positive way every situation then only you can achieve your goal.
Recently, a similar kind of thing happended to a legend. He belongs to world of cricket and he is from Australia. He was one of the most successful captains in Australian cricket. Under his captaincy, Australians have won back to back world cups. He was such a big asset to the australian team those days. Suddenly, he lost form and was almost out of Australian team before which a fruitful test series with Indians made his place certain in ODI team also. But that proved costly and made his successful career come to a sad end.
The last few days of his ODI career was like a well written script. One day he was a normal contributor to the team, suddenly, the other day he became a captain and the other day he was dropped from the team and beacuse of which he has to retire from ODI cricket. At the end all his success story and his contribution to Australian team proved futile. Things happened in such a quick succession that lovers of cricket were buffled by the series of events.
It is not just to a legend, it can happen anyone at any moment of life. The day you think you are on top may not be there forever. Careful planning, good vision and consistency in everything is worthy in ones career. We have to learn from the mistakes and be positive always for good results.
