The Difference Between

- "I scored a lot not just because I'm a good player, but because the motivation of my teammates made me do this"

- Pratyaksh Pandav

A s you know, everyone wants to be like a lion, but being a lion can sometimes make you feel sad. This story is based on how you behave in activities. Once in a school, there lived a boy named Aman. He was a good cricket player, but he always thought about himself instead of the captain. When the team required many runs, he only focused on his own individual score; for that reason, the team often lost matches. Aman knew the coach couldn't remove him because he was the best batsman. 

But when session-ending exams were over, a new student named Sanju joined Aman's class. Sanju was also a great cricket player and scored even more runs than Aman. When Aman realized this, he became tensed and feared the coach would select Sanju instead of him. On the day of selection, a shocking thing happened: Sanju was selected as the captain, and Aman's name was not in the squad at all. Aman argued with the coach and disrespected him before leaving for lunch. 

On April 23rd, the team played their first match and won easily! They continued to win every match and eventually became champions. In an interview, Sanju said something very surprising: "I scored a lot not just because I'm a good player, but because the motivation of my teammates made me do this". 

Moral: Being a lion means you're alone and no one will help you; being a sheep and using teamwork results in success. A lion cannot easily attack a group of sheep.
