Is there any mistake that resonates with you more than the others? Let me know! 💪

My parents say that it’s too late for me to become pro. I want to prove them wrong, and this video made me committed to my dream. Thank you man, may God bless you.

The isolation tip hit hard. I'm also introverted, at least with people I don't know very well, and I rarely meet people outside the pitch. I'm 17, playing with many mid-20 year olds, and I love being with them, but I am always scared they don't like me. This weekend I went outside my comfort zone and went to a team-party, and even though I don't drink I had such a good time. I felt so liked and more inside the group. Being socially comfortable has such a big effect on my game, and I know this was the best choice I could have made. This is your sign to do things outside your comfort zone.

What about the school stress? College exams, then university…how can you deal with these and also focus on your recovery and trainings at 18-19-20 years old?

Almost every mistake resonates with me... now being 23 I've felt for a while that my time has already passed, specially the part where u mentioned getting along with your team mates... I've never had that like "naturally" in me, not that I disliked them but, I have always being more of an introvert/shy guy, so that made it harder for me to make any "friends" at my team, anyways, I guess what I've always wanted is just someone to play and have a good time in the moment.

[wyattmirek]

I honestly agree with every one. They all apply to me as well in some way. An 8th mistake I think you could've added (maybe it didn't apply to you) is play football not only to go pro, but because you have lots fun playing. Never lose the fun of the game by trying to make it the most serious thing in the world. But great video man, never seen something like this on YouTube, your ideas will certainly help me out :)

[Itz_just_stxrmy]

You know what i really like your channel above other football related channels is the fact that you voice alot of the fears and insecurities we all faced at some stage and that i admittedly allowed to stop me from playing the game i love coz i no longer loved playing it just coz i was hard on myself
And i started to play again because your tips genuinely helped so i just wanted to thank you for that
Here are your flowers sir💐
Keep inspiring the young footballers like you do with your content and i wish you nothing but prosperity fr😤💯

[sonaris_senpai]

I really wanted advice like this since my passion for football and determination just recently flared up but I was unintentionally holding back my growth by stressing out about the fact that I'm currently 15 thinking that its too late even thought its never too late. I got motivation from my closest friends and I've been training diligently, passionately, and etc. Enjoying the feeling of noticing my improvements to this day. Thanks for telling us about your trials and errors 😁

[ethansooma]

love you bro. cant wait to see you in the premier league. Ill be waiting there bro

[adoniplays]

Thanks so much for the advice, you really taught me good God bless you brother ❤

[he-rqkt]

As a younger person who has the same ideas as you did when you were younger, hearing the hindsight of how you think of the things that you could have done better really makes me think. I find it very relatable to the way you thought and im realizing that I am making some of the mistakes you said in the video. I just wanted to say this has really helped me out, so thank you.

This really helps especially to those who are still young like me, social media definitely plays a part on players not reaching their goals, being exposed so much to more and more young players, some even as young as 15 playing games in already top leagues really destroys your morale.

phenomenal video, very informative, but I have one question. I started PLAYING football at the age of 14, I am now 15 and I never felt the feeling that football gave me, is it possible for me to go pro despite my lack play in previous years? I am doing good right now with decent dribbling and technical work. Thank you for your time and I would love to hear an answer from you.
Here are some video ideas I think footballer would be interested to hear and know:
1. How to analyse a football game and increase your football IQ
2. How to analyse your own games and how you can improve on them
3. How many hours does a pro baller train (I over train and that is the case for many) and how he manages his time
4. What does a pro baller do off the pitch
5. What to prioritize football wise in every age group (technicality, physicality, game IQ...)
6. How am I able to plan my sessions and goals and how to play under pressure
7. How to increase self-esteem and stress less about the game
I looked more into your video and your newer ones are gold. Keep up the good work. <3
