Legendary Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar feels there are no shortcuts to success and one has to work really hard in order to achieve his/her dream. While interacting with the school students in Western Maharashtra on Friday, Tendulkar -- who is counted as one of the best batsmen the game has ever seen -- also revealed that he was not selected when he appeared for his first selection trials.
"When I was a student, the only thing in my mind was to play for India. My journey started at the age of eleven," Tendulkar said in Marathi. "I even remember that when I went for my first selection trials, I was not selected by the selectors. They had said that he will need to work hard and improve his game. "At that time I was disappointed because I thought I had batted well, but the result was not as per expectation and I was not selected. But after that my focus, commitment and capacity to work hard increased further. If you want to realise your dreams, then shortcuts won't help," he added.
