It's more than a game; It's more than money; It's your life! This book will help aspiring professional athletes and their families avoid the curse that, oftentimes, comes with the professional sports culture. Why do so many NFL and NBA athletes struggle to lead productive, successful lives when they retire? Why do they invest in their talent, but not their life? Don't they know their playing days have an expiration date? The bigger question is: Why don't college athletes prepare to be professionals like they prepare to be professional athletes? Why do they repeat their predecessors' mistakes? Isn't that insanity? By studying this playbook, aspiring and rookie NBA and NFL athletes will be able to create a blueprint to prepare them to navigate the world of professional sports and successfully transition into the final stage of their lives. This playbook takes a proactive approach in addressing the common issues that plague athletes, enabling them to move forward strategically and with purpose. This is your opportunity to change your thinking so that you can change the game! By reading this book, you will give yourself a better shot at Surviving the Lights!
