How much accolades and praises we give to this man at the moment would be still less as compared to the feat he has achieved at the moment. Abhinav Bindra,the winner of the Gold medal in the 10m rifle shooting event, is today a living history.
Accolades and praises have been pouring in since the moment he clinched the medal but still many questions are still to be answered.
Bindra who happens to be belonging to a very affluent business family from chandigarh is also a CEO of his own company. His father is also a very successful business man.
Well the thing that I wish to point out here is that India has hardly any role to play in the success of this man except for giving him a birth to participate in the Beijing Olympics. Bindra has trained in the shooting range built in his backyard in Bindra Farms and used to train in Germany with the beautiful german coach that you all must have seen in the newspapers. He did not even practice in the obsolate shooting range built in the jungles of south Delhi.......... Clearly Abhinav Bindra has proved to be a self made man and that does add more charm to his already glamouring charisma at the moment.
Well he was rich,he was talented and he made it. He fulfilled his dreams despite the fact that the state neglected to meet the needs of the basic infrastructure that would actually have made him a great shooter. Neverthe less made it to the top himself, got all the resources himself and never faultered in his aim. That is itself quite an amazing thing itself.
His success is indeed historical. My purpose here was to just to show the pains and the efforts that he went at length to get to the place he wanted to be. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that amazing? Isn't that like living a life that is more amazing than fiction? His self determination has brought him the laurels that he much deserved. Today he has surpassed the names of all the great sportsperson that this country has produced. Indeed Abhinav Bindra is a living history.
Let us all take inspiration from this man at the moment, and let us choose to do something commendable that the world that shall come remember us for our deeds. Neverthe less I would like to mention that today I feel so inspired by his rare feat and that I must say,he has given me the strength to follow my dreams, the dreams which I was so stumbling to follow, no more shall my feat dwindle, no more shall I have the doubt, for now I know that the success which is at the hand's length, sometimes requires alot of grit and hard work to reach it........
My best wishes to Abhinav...the 26 yr old...and may he inspire the greatness in all of us...that is somewhere lost and hidden......
