This is a blog for a little adventure of mine to play soccer for a living. I'll try to update daily, but no promises. Though I really would love to, as it's "good motivation" if you track your progress, according to almost every pundit on motivation.

What I hope to get out of this may seem a touch ambitious, but if you look at it another way, there's no real loss if it doesn't go as planned. Even if I pull a shred of anything I hope to out of this, that's fine too.

-1-
I hope to prove to myself that motivating myself isn't (hopefully) all that hard. I'm a famous slacker, most notably in university. I really, really need to change that. I hope to see that it's not as hard as I make it out to be, and I hope to act on that and start becoming a touch more responsible about everything.

-2-
I want to see what I can do. What happens when I put my mind to something? It could also serve as good motivation for other things.

-3-
I also want to keep track of my progress. I want to see improvements, and I want to have a good recollection of how football/soccer was before the improvements, so I can see how long (or short) I've come.

-4-
And I suppose, least of all, I want to keep my brain active over the summer by just writing.


My grand goal is to earn a living playing soccer/football. I realize the incredible odds of that happening are pretty low, but it's worth a shot. Besides, I enjoy the game, and I enjoy getting better - what is there to lose?
