The spirit of sportsmanship

The spirit of sportsmanship is what we are lacking today. The sports tell us that we should take a defeat or disappointment with a smile. We should not go about insisting on our success in whatever we attempt. 

It is not possible for every man to succeed in every desire he has. There may be ambitions of groups, there may be ambitions of individuals which they set before themselves and they must try, if they are disappointed in the carrying out of their ambitions, to take that disappointment and that defeat with a smile and not take law into their hands. 

What will happen if every individual in the street wishes to go his own particular way without observing the rules of traffic? There will be clashes; there will be accidents. What happen on the roadside will also happen in the public activities, in the public life of the country
