I got up on the wrong side of the bed is no longer an acceptable excuse.Every responsibility comes with a price tag of expectations.If you do not live up, you got to go.

The indian cricket learned it the hard way.The recent BCCI diktat has its foundation in the same theory.You earn in proportion of what you give.Things can't be served on a platter for one who doesn't earn the bread.Cruel? Not exactly.Practical? Oh yess!!

Why should sports be an exception?You belong to the highest level, do what is required to stay there.Burden of expectations is an excuse which is catching rust and no one is sentimental enough to brood over the romance of ageing or the glittering past.Past performance, or the promise of future no longer is good enough to hold you at heighest pedestal for a long.

The corporate India is a living example.You don't achieve your targets, you go.The growth and progress of economy is a result of this no excuse, no holds barred approach.So with sports, so with life and ditto with relations.You don't live upto my expectations, i move on.Where is the time to think of good old times, or the patience to wait for improvement in performance.Act before it's too late,be counted when it matters most.Love of life or the fan following,different contexts, rules remain the same. Miss the moment, miss the train.

Poetics are a thing of past.This is the age of practical realities.Survival of the fittest never sounded so real.
