The most common problem faced by young footballers who dream about turning an amateur plaing into professionalism are the first steps because they do not know where to start!
Although we have raised this topic many times, we still get these questions how to do it!
While there is no one-size-fits-all recipe that will always work, we have 9 quick tips for you that, with enough determination, will get you started, and with a lot of hard work and a bit of luck, it can help you succeed!
1) JUST ENTER THE ACTION AND DO "SOMETHING"!
Everyone says they want to be great players, but really only a fraction of these people go into action and are consistent in it!
For starters just do "something"
That first step.
Go for tests, join a club on a lower level, train individually, ask an expert for advice!
Start and then be consistent and don't give up!
2) BE INSPIRED EVERY DAY!
Read the biography of successful people and celebrated footballers, look for inspiring and motivating stories in the world of football!
See for yourself that IT IS POSSIBLE!
3) DEVELOP SKILLS!
The most important point without which all the others are worthless!
Above all, train with full commitment every day!
Train in the club, train individually, play with friends whenever you can!
Do everything to make your skills grow!
Develop every aspect!
Football preparation, mental preparation, physical preparation!
If you don't have high skills, it will be for nothing!
4) UNDERSTAND THAT REJECTION IS PART OF THE PROCESS!
Be prepared that when you show up for the tests you may be rejected, that some agents will not be interested in helping you, that not every club can offer you a contract, and that not all skills are available right away!
When you get rejected, just realize it's part of the process and keep working with what you learn from that rejection!
5) CREATE A MAIN GOAL AND DAILY GOALS!
At the very beginning, plan what is your goal.
What club do you want to play at, what to achieve, etc.
Then learn to what level you need to develop your skills to make it real and every day do everything that will allow you to achieve this goal.
Train so that your skills match the club you have chosen.
Find people who can help you, etc.
6) IGNORE CRITICS
When you start working, train and making your dreams come true, suddenly there will be people, even from your family, who will do anything to criticize you and convince you that you will fail!
Be prepared for it and just ignore it!
7) FIND SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE!
At the very beginning, find something in your skills or character that will make you unique and make you unique, and then treat it as your greatest treasure.
Develop it and perfect it so that the scouts can spot you among many other players!
8) DO NOT COMPLAIN !
And finally stop complaining and focusing on what you are missing!
If you really want to be a professional footballer, act instead of making excuses!
If you are looking for excuses it means that you are just a poseur and your mind is unsuitable for playing on a professional level!
