Conviction & Hardwork: 2 faces of the coin, Success

Dilip Tirkey and Sania Mirza have reached the top with these two virtues.

Dilip, an Adivasi from a tribal village, Saunamara in orissa has come to rule our national game. His 17 years of hardwork and concentration has finally paid and has made him the Captain of the Indian hockey team. He is not just a captain for his colleagues but a source of inspiration and a sense of confidence when he is around. Though his father Vincent Tirkey has represented Orissa in national tournaments, his success comes from hardwork and conviction. He has a long way to go. Hope he will get India the gold medal in the next Olympics and A World cup in his tenure.

Sania Mirza, the 18 year old sports woman became the first Indian woman to claim a WTA tour singles title by winning the Hyderabad Open singles final. It was a steady rise in each game she played. She has won many a hearts and has inspired many others. The fighting spirit and the aggresion in the game is what is going to take her even further. Hyderabad, her home town is just the beginning. The young icon has got a long way to go before she grabs all the four grand slams for the years to come. That will be the salvation for all the hardwork and the conviction she has put against all odds, including the social one.

May God bless them both to lead India in their respective games.
