#StartANewLife - study and sports together

A balance in life with studies and sports simultaneously. There has been a lot of debate around doing the things together in life . Some say that at once one can concentrate either on sports or academics. Both can't go hand in hand when you want to top the class with good marks.Even I was in agreement with the fact that both can't be achieved simultaneously. My parents was very supportive in me taking up sports and studies together during school days.I made a bold decision to take up both at a time in life.At first I was not serious about sports. It was just to miss class or two when there were athletic events during school days.But I was very serious in studies.

Sports was just a part and not everything at initial days.One coach changed the complete picture in my life making me to take sports seriously.He was very strict coach who was not entertaining any excuse or reason for not attending practice. I still remember many instance where we were asked to continue practice even in heavy rains while others were looking at us running in rain.Another instance I would recall where our coacg had to keave tge session due to work and told us to continue the practice giving us some list of things which had to be repeated. But we did only half and sat at one place chatting with team members.we were not at all aware that our coach was observing us from pavilion. He came to us and asked us whether we all completed our tasks to which we all said yes. He was very angry and told that he was observing us while we were chatting and enjoying. As a punishment he told us run entire ground for 40 minutes.That is where we realised the importance of practice and its outcome. I  was improving my timings day by day under the guidance of my coach.Sports was not at all effecting my studies but infact helping me a lot to concentrate. Infact I would say it had eased the tension during exams.I even topped during exams even after tight practice schedule and all.

My coach was giving my example to other parents who were not willing to put thier kids or hesitant parents who thought their kids might not do well in studies .They thought it was waste of time joining sports. But my own example is enough to say that it is possible to do multi-task but that determination should exists within ones own self.No one can force others to take up studies or sports.

That was one bold decision I took which made to feel a new life.Those old memories are still fresh in my life.
