From the Master's Mouth

26th October this year, I posted 10 commandments that Sachin Tendulkar has given to us while he was playing cricket. Almost a month  later, the master himself has provided his thoughts on some of the key points that I had penned down. Enjoy this interview - Sachin on being Sachin!

10 Commandments!


Whenever you think about some part of your life there are memories attached to it. If a parent thinks about his child's schooling then probably the child's first day at school is the most impressed image. If you think about marriage, then the first time you met that special someone might be the image that will conjure up in your mind (This actually depends on the state of your marriage ;) ). If I think about cricket the first image that comes to my mind is Ajay Jadeja taking a diving catch running in from long off (or was it long on!?) in Australia (Think it was Sydney.. not sure). The next image is that of Hero Cup (1992) semi-finals where a teenager was chosen over Kapil Dev to bowl the 'make-or-break' last over! Why these images!?

The Magazine Test

Everyday in the newspaper, news channels and every medium that you can think of you will see at least one news about an individual cheating or defaulting or doing some act of crime or shame. It depresses me how men can fall so low for something as temporary as money or power. It is not that we have not done any act of crime or shame in our lives ever. We have. At least I am sure I have done it.But as leaders in their own right we expect them to take the wiser choice.Where is ethics? Here is an anecdote from my life which gave me a powerful decision making tool. It was pretty useful especially when in a dilemma :)
