Struggles and challenges faced in early career from "summary" of Playing It My Way by Sachin Tendulkar
In the early days of my career, I faced numerous struggles and challenges that tested my resolve and determination. One of the biggest hurdles I had to overcome was the constant pressure to perform and prove myself at a young age. As a budding cricketer, I had to deal with high expectations from fans, media, and selectors, which often felt like a heavy burden on my shoulders. Moreover, the competitive nature of the sport meant that I had to constantly work on improving my skills and staying ahead of the competition. This meant sacrificing my personal time and putting in extra hours of practice to hone my craft. There were times when I doubted my abilities and questioned whether I had what it takes to succeed at the highest level. In addition to the external pressures, I also had to contend with internal struggles, such as self-doubt and fear of failure. As a young player trying to make a name for myself, I often felt like I was not good enough or that I did not belong among the best in the game. Overcoming these negative thoughts and beliefs was a constant battle that required mental toughness and resilience. Despite the challenges I faced, I refused to give up or let setbacks define me. Instead, I used them as learning opportunities to grow and improve as a player. Each failure taught me valuable lessons about perseverance, hard work, and the importance of staying focused on my goals. Looking back on those early years, I realize that the struggles and challenges I faced were necessary for my development as a cricketer and as a person. They shaped me into the player I eventually became and instilled in me a sense of grit and determination that would serve me well throughout my career.
