Master Blaster has received yet another honour as the prestigious Time Magazine has published the photograph of iconic batsman Sachin Tendulkar on its front page.  The legendary cricketer gave an interview to Time Magazine.
In the interview Sachin Tendulkar has said that he still spends sleepless nights thinking as to how to keep the same standard and live up to his own expectations. He, however, termed it as a healthy sign.

Reacting to the criticism he gets, Sachin Tendulkar said: "Let people talk about it; me, I move forward. Right from my school days, I have done that. I know that certain things I do or say have an impact on people. People appreciate certain things that I do. But any active sportsman has to be very focused; you've got to be in the right frame of mind," he said, pointing out that if a person's energy is diverted in various directions, he does not achieve the results. "I need to know when to switch on and switch off; and the rest of the things happen around that. Cricket is in the foreground, the rest is in the background."

In a reply to a question Tendulkar has said that he barely has fraction of seconds to react to a boll when he's on field and he can't be thinking of what XYZ's comments.  "If I get to hear casually about something someone's said about me, or see something in the papers, that’s fine. Don't go looking for things. In the last few years, the hype has grown because there is such fierce competition in the media," he added.

People who are  determined in life will keep on going silently no matter whatever others say. And they come out with flying colours. There's so much to learn from Sachin Tendulkar!
