Why Am I Not A Professional Footballer?

[@SimplySoccer]

I go over the main reasons I never became a pro footballer and what you can learn from the mistakes that I made. This is really important if you are actually serious about pursuing professional football or any high level of football. This is advice I wish I had heard when I was around 12-14.

Hey there Dave, Im 20 and a player for my men's club team in Ontario Canada, I wanted to ask you if I could still make large leaps in my skill as a player in the next few years. I'm training consistently, but I'm concerned I'm a little old, I want to play at the highest level that my potential can take me, it's my first year with the men's team and I'm a squad player, I'd like to be the best player on the team in a year or two, is it possible to improve to that level given my circumstances? Any feed back would be great

[@leoburns4728]

SimplySoccer thank you

[@sebfox2194]

Great advice for any young player looking to make the most of their potential. Anyone who has serious ambitions about becoming professional could definitely benefit from listening to this, and taking it on board. Respect to you for giving an objective and honest review of your mistakes in order to help others.

I don't normally comment on videos but this one got to me because I'm a 14 yr old and My goal in life is to make it professional and become the one of the best in the world now you have given me the steps to it and I appreciate you and hope I can make it and if I do you will be the reason. It's unfortunate it was too late for you but youve done something better, you've made young boys who are passionate about the game aware of what exactly they'll have to come across and do to make it pro. Thank you

Thanks for the kind words. You have plenty of time, but time will go by quickly if you're not careful. If you truly want it, give it your all. Have no regrets.

[@lebat9184]

It's never too late. Age is just number. I started playing soccer during my 3rd year in college. And i passed the try out and managed to play in games due to hard work. Hard work is always rewarded. I play midfield by the way and I'm not bragging. I'm not a pro player but I have passion for the game. Thank you Dave for teaching how to play this beautiful sport. You are a pro. :)

[@dme3907]

YES i am glad you realize it on time. Work hard but not only hard but the way that works for you. Be sure to have people ( how have experience with football) who support and push you forward in the right way. But you know you need the best so work on those things you think you have to master to suceed. Another tip: listen to your body don't push your self to hard. Rest is also very important. I am sure already know these things but i like to remind people some important stuff. 😀

[@SimplySoccer]

Thanks mate! It makes sense. Keep going and give it your all if that's what you want!

[@vt500ft]

"The hard work and the smart work is what is going to get you there." The clarity of your message about personal discipline and the honest, simple, direct example expressed through your personal storytelling is very much appreciated. I showed this video to my kids and we talked about what you said and the choices they make every day. When I asked about an example of a choice they make that does not contribute to them fulfilling their personal goals they both said, "Fortnite." Your message is so true in EVERY aspect of their lives, not just soccer, and I really appreciate you taking the time (and putting in the thought and effort) to share this important message. It reminds me of a line from song Subdivisions by Rush - "Some will sell their dreams for small desires". Unfortunately it is not just "some", it is most. :( Thank you again for consistently providing great soccer (and LIFE) related content on youtube. Your messages are always helpful and you are having a positive impact on a lot of young players.

[@SimplySoccer]

No problem, John! I appreciate you sharing it with your kids because it definitely is an important lesson. It's very true that many sell their dreams for small desires like those song lyrics suggest. The upside is it implies that those who actually do develop discipline and consistency can live their dreams and have very fulfilling lives. We all have the potential to do so if we make the choices that align with what it is we want.

[@cjayloco3240]

Damn that quote is hard, dome sell their dreams for small desires shiyat

GOOD LUCK

[@tomekwason7447]

I am 28 years old, have suffered several knee injuries and yet your videos have inspired me to pursue becoming a better footballer for my local team. I don't need to be fantastic, but to be able to support my team mates and see progress within myself. More importantly I have a 1 year old son who is completely obsessed with football. He does nothing else. You talking about being talented but not knowing about discipline and grit and systematical training really affected me. I will take this in consideration when helping my son if he decides to pursue a football career, or anything else really.

[@Mostafaabobakr7]

One of your best videos

[@SimplySoccer]

Thanks!

[@litoofficial9632]

Your best vide*

[@LoveBagpipes]

This was a very good video It does take sweat and tears and hardship, absolutely right Sadly we live in a society that's quite spoilt with "unearned" praise... One thing I've tried to do, my son, only U8s (but, the reason I watch these videos, and even became interested in sports at all, etc), is try to keep his ego flat...since he started in the local little kickers program he's had people coming up and telling him how "good" he is (adults, team mates, coaches, coaches from other teams asking him to join their club, even recently some random strangers at last weekends match, etc)...it's hard to correct that. I am stuck trying to remind him, it's because of the hard work he has done...and that if he wants to stay at a "high level", it will take even more of that effort and hard work...that he may be the best in his team, but it's because of the effort he has put in...but I admit, it;s tough to have to pull your child down a bit

[@SimplySoccer]

Thanks, mate! It definitely is a balancing act. You want to equally encourage your kid without it going to his head. I agree that we live in a society now where every kid gets a trophy for simply participating. I get the gesture, but it teaches kids that regardless of how hard you work or how well you do, you get a reward. Not only is that the wrong message to give kids who will be entering a very competitive environment when they are playing with older kids, it also isn't great for the kids who are working hard because they may become discouraged. The only thing to really do is tell your kid to have fun at this age and enjoy it. If you feel praise is going to his head, you can always gently remind him that there is always room to improve. Once he gets older and he's about to enter his teens, if he decides he wants to become a good footballer, you can always make sure he understands how much true dedication, work and commitment it takes. Do it from a place of love, but the sooner he understands the reality of what he's trying to pursue, the sooner he can decide whether or not to go in that direction. Then if he does, he'll be aware of what he needs to do. That's just personally what I would do. Everyone has a different approach. All I know is that telling a young kid that they are just naturally gifted isn't always the way to go. One thing Steven Gerrards dad said to him when he was young was "you get out of football what you put into it". I think that's a really good way of putting it.

[@LoveBagpipes]

Beautiful sentiment Already, being a footballer is all he wants to do Your videos have helped alot in helping me, understand how to help him in that dream (whether it goes far, or doesn't) 'cause lord knows I'm no sportsman!!! :D (I have improved watching and trying out stuff from your vids, and those like it, though)

[@ryanflores9784]

You can always improve because practice makes perfect and I know with hard-work and dedicated you can achieve anything and i like working hard on every aspect of my game

[@Marisola97IPUL]

I completely related to your story. I felt like when I was growing up, people would always tell me that I was talented and a natural soccer. Those words really affected me because I felt like I was the best and because I felt that way I did not work hard enough to make it to the pro levels. I dreamed of playing for the US women's national team and not making it has been the biggest regret of my life. I even went through a phase of depression in my first two years of college because I didn't get the opportunity to play ball. Today, I am feeling better and grateful with my creator. I have accepted the fact that I may never make it to the pro level but I still want to work hard to get to the best level that I can get to for myself. I know what giving up and not working hard feels like. Now I want to see what it feel like to not give up and work hard. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm glad to share with you that I have healed and have been able to move on. I'm looking forward to the future and seeing where my hard work will take me.

[@jaacicasablancas5709]

I've been watching ur vids and I realized that dedication and comitment are very crucial in soccer. I was never "talented" and i have only played soccer for 3 years and sometimes it can be challenging when u have to play againts someone who has played longer then i have... then I have to remind myself that sometimes it doesn't matter how long my oponent has played, but what matters is their skills. I've been working hard and I tell myself that i have to practice and do this and that and ur videos have inspired me so much. Thank you Dave

I don’t care if you’re a pro or not, I think your advices and drills are priceless :). Thank you a lot. And, if you allow me to be honest, I would rather use “my responsibility” instead of “my fault”. I think they differ slightly ;). And finally, I’ve never been a soccer fan; I mean, I played soccer in a club like 99% of Spanish kids but as I grew older and my running skills were faaaar better than my football abilities, I ended up training track&field (that really helped me understand what discipline really was). However since I started to watch your videos (especially the play as a wing and the drills ones) I’ve started to play soccer again (mostly indoor) with my friends. And, following your advice, I began to express myself playing the game. I’m feeling much happier and it’s so much fun now. Gracias :).
