It sounds unfair, right? But let me share a relatable example.
Take Rohit Sharma — one of the most skillful and knowledgeable captains in modern-day cricket.
His last matches before being replaced as captain were:
1️⃣ Winning the T20 World Cup
2️⃣ Winning the Champions Trophy
So, was he replaced because he wasn’t good enough? Absolutely not.
He was replaced because it was simply his time.
Now pause and reflect on your own career.
👉 You may be a young professional, a mid-senior leader, or someone giving everything at work.
👉 You might even believe your role is irreplaceable.
But if Rohit Sharma — at the peak of his success — can be replaced, so can any of us.
On the other hand, I also know professionals who get opportunities and become complacent, thinking the chance will last forever. That mindset is dangerous.
The truth is: your time is always limited.
That’s exactly why you must give 120% every single day.
Because your window of opportunity may close sooner than you expect.
🔑 Takeaway: Don’t waste time worrying about being replaced. Focus on making the most of the stage you’re on today.
