Wimbledon 2010: FEDEXIT


Roger federer, six time Wimbledon champion exits at the quarter finals of Wimbledon 2010 championships; a major shock for all tennis fans around the globe. This was the day which roger would definitely forget for he played his worst fame ever. He remained shaken since the start of the tournament, not to mention his injuries which seemed to have affected his style of aggressive playing. From Alejandro Falla to Thomas Berdych, his performance on court was not as consistent as it used to. His backhand and forehand were wrongly executed, most of the times. He seemed very lost; not focused.

As a result, tennis viewers were baffled and most of them skeptical of Roger’s skills; keeping in mind his 2010 overall performance. Many now believe the Roger era is over; people all over think he is satisfied and now has lost interest in his goals as he has chased down all of it and now he sits upon the pinnacle of modern era tennis. People believe Roger is complacent and over confident, apparently his interviews give that perspective. It is definite that one must fall in what he rises, at some point or the other. Ups and downs don’t and will not affect the bests.

To conclude, tennis fans hope that Roger will come back strong and capture his US open major and bring back his form that once made him the god of tennis, which he still is; as no one wants to see a fantastic player to fall apart in short time, so let’s not write him off, it’s just the end of his 2nd chapter. Hoping that his next chapter starts smooth!!!

Life; pain, agony and success



Well....everybody undergoes through stresses, difficulties, pain. Some fight it off while others lose it by just complaining about it. These tensions in life are so many that we tend to get afraid, fear grips and overtakes us. As to those who have the will and courage to face it, triumph. Most of the times this is not the case as an individual is able to battle through some distresses but unable to conquer all; that’s fair enough as we are humans and not super powered. It is always alright to go forward in steps; take things slowly and never lose heart even though one is unable to settle his pain. One must learn to curb failures, live with it and fight it off. Success is a wonderful feeling but what is the point if we don’t meet failure. Success throughout, is a dream of every individual who wants to remain happy all his life but what if he never meets failure? Imagine his state of mind if he were to encounter it in some point of his life? That would cause him pain and agony. But it is always to be remembered that one who has success throughout, has definitely undergone through ups and downs in life. It is only the way he perceives it, which makes a whole lot of difference. He understands that there is an impediment to his progress but he is not downsized by it. He tries to figure out how to overcome such an obstacle to pave his way through. He does not react to it but acts towards it. Although, it is a natural tendency for one to react, a successful person reacts for a transient moment while transforming his entire reactions into positive actions; implements it and achieves what he wants, not success though but overcoming failure which in turn gives him success. Successful persons don’t thrive for success; it comes to them as they overcome obstacles in their life. Life is all about accepting success and failures; to fight off failures. Life is a gift that everyone gets; it’s all about how we open our everyday package!!!
