I think my life has been a failure so far.

[Colin X]

My grandpa played for the Bulls and coached Minnesota to a Final Four

My dad was gonna play at UCLA but he physically couldn't do it anymore.

My sister played at Kentucky

My older brother plays international now

My younger brother most likely going D1 and if all goes right the NBA.


I'm in college trying to become a teacher


Compared to my family I really took a L brehs.



I was thinking and realized how different I am from my family

I have both the size and athletic ability to play sports at a professional level. Instead i chose to ruin my life. Now i'm a pothead.

No matter what you do, you didn't fail harder then me breh.

 

[Sad Bunny]

Run your own mile, breh.

Don't compare yourself to anyone else.

All that matters is your own happiness

Be a teacher, coach varsity, move up to a d2 school, become assistant coach at d1 school, become head coach, move up to offensive coach in nba, become assistant coach, become nba head coach.

There's a road to anywhere in life, just cause you not taking the highway straight there don't mean you won't make it.

Measuring yourself on the success of others is a sure fire way of selling yourself short.

Do you to the best of your abilities.

We out here spending 4 years in college just to teach gym?

Nah you're not a failure. You are doing something in life. If it's your passion and what you want in life then how can you call it a failure.

Not everybody wants to play in the nba and deal with that. Your different than some of your fam so what

Money is good but it ain't really shyt. Ask the many celebs/athletes you read about who hate money/fame

Better use them connects you have built up from the Auburn/Tuskegee/family etc. You ever thought about coaching AAU/scouting? Also, what do YOU want to do with your life? Reflect on that, and see how attainable your goals are, and set out to achieve them. It sounds like you have a pretty good network-think about life in spurts of 5 year goals, and go from there.
