Some one has rightly said that you should not fight a battle in which you gain virtually nothing. And for sure if you are a professional then you must be following this rule ever since you would have started your career. I do feel that if you are not following this rule then you are really loosing something.

Can you think why Ronaldo is such good football player? Yes, you can really say that he scores goals in almost every match. Also you must have seen many football players who play for small club and are equally talented. But are they successful. Really, they are neither successful nor happy. What I really want to say is the fact that you should really make sure that the battle which you are going to fight rewards you in right way.

If this will be not the case then you will definitely not give your hundred percent in the battle. However it is you who is really responsible for selecting the battle. Let us take the example of the competitions. Suppose you are extra brilliant. Then would you prefer the state exam or the national exam. Certainly you will prefer the national exam. What I really mean to say is the fact that if you will be able to clear the national level exam then you will easily clear the state level exam. But it really would not be justice if you are satisfied by passing the state exam only.

I really feel that now you would have got the ideas about what I am trying to say.  It is really advisable that you should go fro the best and meanwhile you should also make sure that you are comfortable with it or not. If you will not be confident enough then you should really try for the lower standards.

I really feel that there should be no doubt in your mind while committing for the toughest exam which you can handle. Because if you will not do this then you will really feel quiet sad in the coming future and you will curse your faith.

Hence I really feel that you should really do justice to your talent. Hence you should choose the battle keeping this entire thing in mind. It is quiet sure that the player who is of international level will really find it quiet easy when he will play for the national level. But can you really think that he is doing justice by not trying for the international level sports and is happy enough to play at the national level. I really feel that this is really not the right justice to your talent. Hence I would advise that you should choose the toughest battle which you can handle.
