Witnessing India's journey to becoming winners in the recent match was called an 'emotion' by most players, even though it's a professional game. This sentiment resonates deeply with our corporate lives as well. In our professional setups, striving to be winners requires more than just skills and strategies—it demands emotions. It's the passion, dedication, and drive that set us apart and propel us toward success. Let's embrace the power of emotions in our work, channeling them to fuel our determination and commitment. Just like in sports, where every victory is an emotional triumph, our professional achievements too are best celebrated when driven by the heart. https://lnkd.in/gm3QHxth

Not every Indian was happy with India winning the World Cup! Remember how we were all feeling this time last month? How good it felt to see everyone around you happy and celebrating the win. Not only those 11 players, but the whole of India cried with them. Whether it's 19th November or 29th June, truly giving vibes of one big family. And what’s amazing about this year is the fact that we are appreciating every single player. From Rohit to Kohli, Pandya to Surya, Bumrah—everyone's effort is appreciated. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen Surya’s catch on my feed with Jatin Sapru’s legendary commentary, and I still watch the whole thing without getting bored. This is strange it is, right? How the mood of 141 crore people depends on just one game. That's what I love about my country—how we acknowledge others' victories, spend hours editing posts for their wins, and are emotionally connected to them. While most of us were letting this feeling sink in, there were those as well who are not happy about this win. I've heard people dismiss the importance of the World Cup, saying things like, "So what, it's just a game," or "Why are you celebrating? You weren't even playing. That trophy is only for the 11 players." Their argument is that all this showcase of patriotism will never let India reach great heights. Someone also said that the victory lap is a showcase of how unemployed Indians are. Although cynics like these die when they don’t get attention, but I think today it’s important to address this issue. These people fail to understand that it's not just about Cricket. It's about the confidence this instils in 141 crore people, showing that we can achieve great things when united. It's about setting an example for future generations. It demonstrates how one can rise from a defeat, like on November 19th, and shine again on June 29th. It's a source of motivation to strive for personal excellence and a reminder that we are capable of world-class achievements. That we can become the best in the World. This patriotism isn’t hollow, it carries signalling power that has the potential to tweak mindsets! I just want to tell them that this victory is more than just a trophy; it's about a nation uniting and celebrating its spirit. Jai Hind!

Today when the world is chorusing a view that it is India's age as a nation, a glaring absence of a Worldcup trophy since so many years felt like a huge anomaly. As much as we would want to downplay it, Sports and especially Cricket in our country, sips into all other aspects of our lives. It is our soft power. For so many people in India, cricket is that part of our lives 'jahan problems nahi sirf Khushi hai'. It is a refuge in the life of trials. But the World cup losing streaks did not help. Millions of people felt scarred losing World cups after world cups which translated to 'Ab yaha bhi khushi nahi hai naseeb' And that is why this victory is so aspirational. This victory is a tribute to India's coming of age as nation and as world's dominant force. This victory will fuel this generation in a positive way. This victory will resolve that anomaly. This victory will propel the Indians to feel limitless, to feel powerful, to not be afraid of setbacks. To keep aiming for the sky and to truly dominate the world now. India's time has truly come and we are at the helm of it. The narrative is reshaped and story is retold. The world is looking at India and India is looking at the biggest stage. #India #Worldcup

Jay Shah, certainly, a master minded in terms of generating revenue. This parade, then trophy show casing in Wankhede stadium, thus seeking attention of millions. The agenda is clear that cricket is money making machine in India; Indeed it’s a religion in India. Such propaganda makes sure that the Indian people’s liking or rather i should following of cricket should not lessen by 0.01% I am happy that India won world cup. However, such parade and other stuff is nothing but strategy to keep hype for the cricket intact. I wish such love and attention other sports would have had received in India. https://shrts.in/jCpX4

When a leader leads from the front, and if fails once in a while - entire team comes together to cover up - Rohit Sharma 3. It’s not over till you think it’s over - India team even after SA needed 30 off 30 4. You can bounce back from the lowest unimaginable lows (even if the entire world is against you) - Hardik Pandya 5. Hardwork and Humility pays off - even if it hasn’t for decades - Rahul Dravid 6. Consistency pays off eventually - Jasprit Bumrah 7. There is a point in life which comes for most people from where getting up/getting back seems impossible.. sheer will and determination gets you back - Rishab Pant 8. Losses at a big stage are possible, important is the comeback - India team after t50 World Cup to winning the t20 World Cup 9. Nothing is above team work, ultimately every single individuals contribution matters - India Team (everyone contributed in their own way at some point in the tournament) 10. At times the smallest contribution can be the biggest in the game (even of life) - Surya’s catch #DeepakNagathihalli #MutualFunds #SIP #EquityFunds #InvestmentCoach #FinancialCoach #FinancialPlanning #AssetAllocation #LumpsumInvestment #SWP #STP

You’ll not take back money upstairs , What you’ll take back is respect !! When Virat was called upon during the felicitation at Wankhede yesterday, he didn’t speak about Himself . He spoke about Jasprit Bumrah. He acknowledged Bumrah’s efforts in all the matches . He mentioned that it was because of Bumrah that we won the crucial matches . Those matches that were hanging on a thread. With this , He shifted the focus on his fellow colleague . As a senior team member what elevates you as a leader is when you truly recognise the effort of your colleague rather than selfishly taking credit for everything. Not just as a leader but this is what makes you stand out as a true human being . What I also loved about his speech was when he spoke of his and Rohit’s chemistry . The desire to just live for this moment of bringing home the World Cup . Virat has climbed up many fold in my respect book , for being an epitome of humility . #viratkohli #rohitsharma #inspiration #victoryparade #india #bosetalks #t20worldcup #indiancricketteam Follow Rahine Bose 🇮🇳

What I learned from Sri Lanka winning in the women's Asia cup against India. 1. There is no replacement of perseverance, consistent efforts, if today won't bend.. tomorrow will serve you 2. Take your chances and work hard. Luck will somewhere almost always favour you, if you are brave and meticulous 3. Hiccups don't define your performance, your recovery after those hiccups does 4. Your opponent's stature should not stop you from believing. The opponent could be lethargy, procrastination or bad luck. keep believing 5. You should always keep learning from your leader, your leader will always be short without her team, and the team will always be directionless without the leader 6. Biggest of all, Your mindset makes it easy for others to pressurise you, not the opponent himself/herself. Tame your mindset to be a winner, not just your skill. 7. Lastly, be a sportsperson, keep fighting without worrying about pitfalls, fall hard, get back up with more rigour. Roar in victory, Roar in defeat Indian, team...hard luck, wasn't your day. But Sri Lankan women played their heart out, and I am glad that millions of people were watching women cricket this keenly. More power to sportsmanship, More power to Cricket, More power to women's Cricket.

𝗕𝘂𝗺𝗿𝗮𝗵 = 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳 In the recent T20 World Cup Final between India and South Africa, the game hung in the balance as South Africa aggressively chased a formidable target. With 54 runs needed from 36 balls, they swiftly reduced it to 30 runs from 30 balls, leaving Indian fans and players alike fearing a possible loss. 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗝𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗕𝘂𝗺𝗿𝗮𝗵. In the 16th over, Bumrah didn't bowl a maiden or take crucial wickets. Instead, he did something even more powerful. He infused 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳. He rallied his teammates, reminding them that the game wasn't over yet, that the mountain was still conquerable. He inspired the bowlers to stick to their strengths, play with calm focus, and believe in their ability to turn the tide. He even planted seeds of doubt in the opposition's mind, showing them that India was ready to fight back fiercely. Ultimately, Jasprit Bumrah's impact went beyond 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀. Despite not being the highest wicket-taker of the tournament, he earned the Player of the Series award for his unwavering belief and resilience on the field. This reminds us that sometimes, the catalyst for victory isn't about fitting into 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘀. It's about being a beacon of hope and change when all seems lost—a reminder to trust in resilience, determination, and the power of belief. Let's take this spirit into our own endeavors, both on and off the field. 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳, 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲.

Recently, I came across a book about the Indian Hockey team's historic victory in the 1948 Olympics. Given that this took place so long ago, many may not fully know the significance of that victory. To put it in perspective, here are a few key highlights: -This was the first Olympic Games held after India gained independence. Despite the immense challenges of partition, which saw many players move to Pakistan, India fielded a new team. It was also the first Olympic appearance for Balbir Singh Sr, who would go on to become one of India's greatest Olympians, leaving an indelible mark on the sport and the nation. -The final was more than just a match; it was a symbolic showdown between a newly independent nation and its former colonizer, Great Britain, on their home turf in London. -India dominated the game, securing a commanding 4-0 victory over Great Britain. This triumph not only brought home the gold but also united a newly independent India, symbolizing hope, resilience, and the promise of a brighter future. What makes this victory even more remarkable is that it came just three days before the first anniversary of India's independence.
