This actually happened to Romulus once – his grades were slipping and things weren’t looking great for the both of us. It is a difficult trap that some promising players fall into… it is easy to stop doing what you need to do to be successful, easy to go out on Saturday night when you should be staying in to study or do homework. It is especially easy to coast and be happy with just being good at something. If it were to happen to my nephew or niece, I would say this: “What you are asked to do is not easy. Nothing comes easy to those that pursue greatness. If you want to be great, to perform at the highest level and do what I do, you are going to need to make the tough decisions. You’ll need to say no a lot, and you will most definitely need to work your ass off to get where you want to be… except now you will have me to help you.”
