Fighter...

The Fighter....

What makes a good fighter..?

He is not necessarily the one who knows where to hit, when to hit...or how to..

He may not be the greatest fighter that ever lived..

But,

It means to be diligent, committed and disciplined in

Doing something that you hate to do, but

Do it like you love it.

Always testing yourself, forcing yourself to push beyond the limits...

It means denying yourself what you love...

Being a fighter is all about the willingness to sacrifice...everything... for that, one, cause.

Ideally, you are expected to always have fun while achieving your goals... 

But how many times has that been true ? I wonder..

Most people don't have the determination... the will... the steadfastness... the tenacity....

they give in under the slightest struggle...and remain mediocre..

The fighter.... isn't the toughest guy... 

Unlike the saying " the toughest lasts the longest "

This is a smart man's world.. not the tough man's...

The fighter doesn't feel bad in his heart after knocking out his opponent..

For that is only a job accomplished..

For there are only two choices... either to knock him out.. or get knocked out..

And its only human to want to survive...

Everyday, the fighter trains to knock the opponent out..

And the victory is anticipated.. So why the sudden bouts of joy on winning..?

As anything other than that would only mean failure.

The fighter fights day in and day out ..

To acquire something... to acquire maximum power...

But the Enlightened Man realizes that life is all about loss & acceptance.

As we get older we loose our good looks...our hair, our teeth..

Our mothers, our fathers, our kins and lovers...

The true fighter is the one who overcomes these adversities and is able to transcend and spread the word to other people who are stuck in time.
