Why Do So Many Players Struggle After Basketball?
The Harsh Reality of Transitioning Athletes
🔹 Lost Identity – Basketball defined you for years, and now you feel disconnected.

Who will you be in Life After Basketball?
Pay close attention! Success is to know what you want and get it. As I said in the beginning you don’t know what you don’t know. If you were like me, you don’t realize the impact adopting self-improvement as lifestyle can have on your life now and in the future.
It saddens me to see people I grew up with or people who are doing well in basketball, but after basketball they fail…fail big time and don’t use BASKETBALL AS A LADDER IN LIFE! I truly believe that I can help current basketball players in providing them life skills so that they can be successful in whatever they choose…but only if they have the right combination to the lock. I found the code. I want to share it. We choose and continue to choose our direction in life. I want you to have the attitude of thinking, “if it is to be, it is up to me.”
Do this, make self-improvement:
• Your way of life.
• Your standard of living.
• Your routine.
No one makes it alone. One of the most important lessons you learn on the journey through life is that everything you accomplish will be accompanied by someone who helps you at a certain point in your journey. For you to accomplish great things in life, you must have the help of many people. Your ability to find and develop mentors for success can save you weeks, months and even years of hard work trying to figure it out on your own. Most of the successful people that have successful careers, got their positions by identifying mentors earlier in their careers and working with them over the years. This is such an important process that you cannot leave it to chance. One of your goals should be to deliberately seek out and develop high quality mentor/mentee relationships with knowledgeable people who can give you advice as your career progresses. One good piece of advice at the right time can save you months and even years of hard work and frustrated effort.
I want you to go deep into your own mind and visualize you fall asleep and wake up and look around – five years have passed!
• Where are you?
• Who are you with?
• What are you doing?
• What is your lifestyle?
