I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.
During my 21 years of playing cricket, I have never been approached by anyone or offered a bribe.
If you dream of something worth doing and then simply go to work on it and don't think anything of personalities, or emotional conflicts, or of money, or of family distractions; it is amazing how quickly you get through those 5,000 steps.
