Why football photos? 

Because I’m back at my book 📕 #Misfits

Until chapter 5 almost 😅 editor ready. 

Same for chapter 11: Find your sensei. 🥋

Updates? In my monthly newsletter. You miss out if you didn’t subscribe yet. A lack of selve love? 🫣

I wasn’t a football talent! But my first word was ball. The day I could walk? I chased a ball 🤭

Power, winner mentality and hard work got me to pro level. 

But that coin 🪙 had a flip side 🫠

You can take a boy out of the street but you cannot take the street out of a boy.

Long story short? In the street you fight for your life. Not in sports! 

Zlatan mentality, not Zlatan quality! iamzlatanibrahimovic 

What lacked? I was a boy. Not a man yet. 

I needed a sensei! Someone to kick my ass and say: hey listen, stupid gorilla, you have no qualities in life and you were kicked out of university already ….

How about shut your face and do as you are told. Behave like a pro and not like gánster. Be grateful you made it to pro. Or do you want to work 9-5 for shitty pay and traffic every day?? 

That opportunity? I will never know! Not on my death bed, not ever. How far would I have made it? 

I will never know. 

Don’t worry. I grabbed a second chance with both hand and feet 🦶 

I kicked public speaking to a $44 million business in 25 years. Mind you, 100% of my speaking fees fund social innovation. But I earned it. They pay for my future vision and foresight. 

Would I have made it with football? I will never know. 

Can I look back at my life with satisfaction? Yessssssss! 

I found purpose passion paycheck with my preferred lifestyle. 

The spotlights ? Not stadium 🏟️ lights, but lights of theatres and sold out venues. 

Now that is priceless. I can look in the mirror and say: the street is out of the boy, because that boy is a man. 

In my newsletter and future book? I will be the sensei in your pocket! 

A Mr. Miyagi. Or for GenZ Mr. Han 🤭
