Recently, the employees of our portal have carefully analyzed the messages from users in terms of what problems you have on your way to being a professional footballer in order to be able to help you as best as possible.
We know many of these issues very well, but there have been quite a few that we would like to write about in today's article.
Many of you have a problem because you think differently than most.
When you say in full conviction that you would like to become a professional footballer and start doing something, that means daily training, making videos and posting them on the internet.
When you meet your friends less and less because partying is not good for athletes, everyone starts making fun of you.
At first they try to convince you that it is impossible, then they start to ridicule and persecute you.
You do not give up and every day you can see that you are different.
You do.n't have many real friends.
Some of you live with your parents and you also lack support at home because many of you write that your parents are close to divorce and sometimes some of them abuse alcohol
Yes, we know it makes it incredibly difficult to focus on sports!
Listening to these troubles, today we want to tell you the story of a boy!
John Arne Rise was a former player of the Norwegian national team and clubs such as Liverpool, As Roma and As Monaco.
John, as he says himself, always had red hair, freckled and ugly, and he came from a very poor family for Norwegian reality.
From the age of 12 he played football at the local club.
John's parents were constantly arguing and his father was beating his mother.
It was one of the reasons John was constantly being mocked at school and in the yard.
When other children invited each other to birthdays, no one invited him, and John was rarely able to do so due to the circumstances at home.
Even when he organized the birthday, no one came.
At that time, John's mother, despite trying hard, could not buy him the best toys that other children had.
He only had a ball back then.
This 12-year-old boy was heartbroken at the time and cried many times because he was always alone!
During club training, the coaches made sure that John was training with the rest of the children, even though there were many same who persecuted him at school.
John told himself then that he would prove to all of them and the day would come when they would come to him asking for an autograph!
From that moment on, he created his own routine and instead of being sad about the lack of friends and problems at home, he always ran at 5:45 in the morning, and on days when there were no training sessions, he trained alone, devoting about 2 hours to it!
Although they tried to disturb him during training, he managed to cope because he was a strong boy and finally they gave him a break!
Instead of wasting energy on worrying and sadness, John trained every day and walked step by step towards his goal!
After a few years, the work brought results and Rise at the age of 16 made his debut in the first team of Aalesunds FK and then at the age of less than 18 he joined AS Monaco!
When he came to his hometown as a Liverpool player, he met one of the boys who persecuted him in his childhood, this man now was an employee of MC Donalds.
At the time, this employee was very embarrassed, but first he fulfilled John's order and then asked him for an autograph!
This story shows you that no matter how hard it is in life, you have to set a goal and then strive for it every day!
Step by step slowly but surely!
Just feeling sorry for yourself won't help. You get down to work and grow now!
Never give up
