Football is one of the biggest sport, if not the biggest sport in the world. Making it in the world of football can be regarded as one of the biggest achievement someone can make . But does it come easy ? NO
In the football world , its not about the brains or knowing someone or being rich that makes you a great footballer but it is down to two major attributes : commitment and determination

1. Determination:

As I would love to say , wanting something is like finding the perfect treasure spot but putting the effort required to is like digging the treasure out. A lot of great footballers are great not cause they had it easy or they were handed greatness on a platter of gold but that determination and perseverance to get to the top got them there. A good example of this is HARRY KANE ( TOTTEHAM STRIKER )

A Young Chubby Boy Who had gone to arsenal and stayed there for a year but go released after just a year with reference to his height and pace . following his rejection at arsenal , the young harry didn’t back down . he knew what he wanted and went after it with courage and this is that determination we are talking about. he got admitted into Tottenham and there he had loan spells upon loan spells with most not ending well. Most remarkably is his Norwich loan spell a very terrible experience for him

But he kept going didn’t he? now Harry Kane is one of the deadliest finishers out there . he didn’t quit till he got to the top

1. Commitment :

This particular attribute is the physical representation of determination . now you are determined to become a footballer one should be highly committed to the process of becoming one. as a footballer you should be wanting to get better each day and becoming the best version of yourself. Talent alone doesn’t make one great if not the number of great footballers would have filled the pacific ocean. A good example of a player who have always shown great commitment to being a great player and is now am legend is the Juventus talisman , Christiano Ronaldo . A player that have set a lot of records and keeps setting more. the most recent is his 100 goals tally for three different clubs, a first by any player ever. His commitment is something all his coaches have always lauded him about. the willingness to put in the work to get better and become the best and the product of his commitment is his records.
