Jake here. What's up?
So you're a college football player huh? That's pretty cool. How long have you been playing?
I've been playing for a few years now. It's definitely a lot of fun, but it can also be really challenging.
Oh yeah? What position do you play?
I play running back. I love being able to use my speed and agility on the field.
That sounds like an awesome experience! Have you ever had any injuries or setbacks while playing?
Yeah, unfortunately I've dealt with a few injuries over the years. But that's just part of the game. You have to be able to overcome those setbacks and keep pushing forward.
I completely agree. It takes a lot of mental toughness to be successful in anything, especially sports. How do you stay motivated and focused during practice?
Well, I think one thing that helps is having a clear vision of what I want to achieve. And then breaking down the goals into smaller, more manageable tasks. That way it doesn't feel so overwhelming.
That makes sense. It's all about taking things one step at a time and staying committed to your end goal. Speaking of goals, have you thought about what you want to do after college?
Yeah, I definitely have some ideas. I think ultimately I would like to pursue a career in coaching or maybe even go into sports management.
That sounds exciting! What is it about coaching that appeals to you specifically?
I just love being able to help people improve and reach their full potential. And coaching allows me to do that on a bigger scale by working with entire teams.
