I am very grateful that I picked a career path that I really enjoy, and I wanted to do: KL Rahul

KL Rahul in his inspirational interview delved into how he kept the noise out and coped with the criticisms during his lowest periods, he said “You can’t really change people. You’re allowed to say what you feel, and a lot of it at that time felt more hurtful than it actually was probably. Now looking back, I feel I could have looked at it very differently, but also a lot of it has to do with where you are personally. I wasn’t in a great space mentally at that time to take that kind of criticism.”

The series also highlights the inner Belief that lies within KL Rahul as he continues his journey, he says while talking on Star Sports ‘Believe’ Series “There’s always been something within me from a very early age, a voice or an energy that always felt right. Like I always felt I was in the right direction. As always, I am very grateful that I picked a career path that I really enjoy, and I wanted to do.

So, every time I find myself in a position like Oh, what am I doing? Why am I going through these injuries? Or why are so many people criticizing me? I always go back to thinking that this is what you wanted to do, so it’s a part of your game. I believe that it’s all part of the journey, and you need to take the good and the bad in a very balanced way. And it’s all part of an individual’s growth and journey to getting stronger as a person. And as you get stronger as a person, it reflects on what you do professionally.”
