Referring to Novak Djokovic, everyone knows that he is one of the top players in the world, if not the greatest, the tennis village. Nole used to be at the peak of all peaks, with difficult records. He and Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in the "Big Three" group create a fierce competition in the opening era. They once shared the same viewpoint, that, "the opponent is the motivation to continue to strive, overcome, overcome, conquer limitations".
However, when they were not the same age, Djokovic watched Federer and Nadal retire one by one. At that time, many people believed that the Serbian tennis player would extend the Grand Slam title he had set a record with 24 crowns. However, in the latest confession, the 38-year-old admitted that there were " moments when the court felt empty" after Nadal retired.
In fact, there are still Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner and many other opponents, but not because Djokovic disregards them, but because what he has had for many years with Nadal creates a big difference in the mind when putting the "generational war" side by side.
It does not sound like Djokovic at all, as he is the embodiment of iron courage and steel spirit. However, this really reflects real life. You may feel like Djokovic, when you suddenly don't know what you are living for. The goal is gone, the motivation is also gone.
Therefore, everyone needs a "opponent" for their life. Young people can call it an aspiration - learning a new thing, building a career, affirming their self-worth. For them, the goal of life is not only success but also dedication, creating value for life. Every day as a young person is a step forward, not allowing yourself to stand still.
Older people are different. After the ups and downs, the most important thing is health, is to enjoy the time with relatives, the peace in the mind. The goal was no longer running after, but keeping himself a rhythm of life to see every day beautiful instead of waiting for the heart of the heart in the chest to beat the last beat ...
Losing goals, people lose direction. Like people going to the forest without discussing, easily lost and exhausted. Keeping a reason to wake up every morning - whether big or small - is the way to keep your life, in each cell of the body and the spiritual aspect.
