I've had this idea that I've been tossing around my head for a while. It's not exactly planned to be a big money-maker but I can see if I do it right from ad's and other small things. This is in no way meant to be a business, merely for my pleasure, along with possibly others.
One dream of mine is to play professional soccer one day. I'm not necessarily talking the top divisions who make millions (although I'm certainly shooting for it). I've only been playing soccer for what is nearing 3 years in August but I'm constantly playing it and I've made very large strides in my skill. I want to prove to others that in order to be professional you don't need to play since you were a baby up until now. That isn't my "true" motivation though, really, I just love to play.
Anyways, in the time I've been playing I've already gotten to the point where me just fooling around one day the coach at my college (mind you only d3) asked me to come practice with them. Not only that but even though I had just come back from surgery on my knee I was able to keep up with them just fine. But enough of this (what I kind of feel like) is "bragging" I didn't intead for it to be, but just showing I am willing to put in the time and effort to become the "best".
My idea is to just start a blog with the intention of tracking my progress to becoming a professional soccer player. It just so happens that my dream place to live has always been England, and I'll be moving there at the end of summer, so it will be easy to find a league that fits my level. The blog will keep track of my daily practice\condition sessions, just random notes, motivational things, and anything soccer related really. Along with it every couple of weeks (maybe every week) I would post some poll for a type of video challenge where people can vote on some type of challenge for me to post.
The best part about it is that it will have a "hate" group and a "love" group which just adds to the attraction of it to others. There will be people who no matter how good I get will say it's impossible. And there are people who will say it motivates them (hopefully! haha).
Anyways that just a quick run down of it. Just kind of curious what you guys think and if there is anything I can add to the plan.
