I'm coming to a cross roads right now. . .

A Play college football and go to school full time, while working on my business ideas on the side.

B Focus on being a entrepreneur and go to school full time, while working on my business ideas on the side.

If I go with option A I'll have less time and funding for my business ideas

If I go with option B I'll have more time and funding for my business ideas

I know I'd be able to accomplish my goals WAY easier if I had more reliable cash flow in which I'd have if I put off playing football.

I feel if I play football it will just keep me in the slow lane much longer. But I miss smashing people and hearing the crowd. Not to mention my brother plays on the same team which would be cool.

I suppose I could find a way to make all 3 work.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?
Or can anyone just offer me some advice or suggestions?

I just don't want to wake up 10 years from now thinking. . .

Well yeah I made all the money I wanted to make but I wish I played football when I had the chance.

Does anyone feel like this at all?
