Decentralized Football Academy (DFA) is a charitable football/soccer academy, built on the principles of hard work, dedication, teamwork, and vision. ------------ This video is motivational, inspirational and contains powerful words for everyone to watch. (purpose of life) ------------ Video's Speech: ------------ You guys may be wondering about a new face in our midst! yeah, We’re gathered here today so that I may introduce him to the team. As you all know, this is a charitable football academy, an academy where we collect no penny from you, and only focus on achieving your dreams as a footballer. Some of you just joined, kudos to those who have been part of the journey since the onset, it shows you believe in DFA's vision. While some had left thinking this is shit, I say: “Facebook was once shit to some people, and who would have invested in Google right after it was created in 1996?” If you aim at the stars, at least you will hit the moon for sure. By focusing on DFA, you're making your passion your purpose, and that's one of the best things to do in life. A wise person once said "the tragedy of life is not death but what we let die inside us while we are alive". If you die without giving your passion a life, it will come to you right after death and say to you: “We came to you to give us life but you didn't, you're a total failure and now we will go to another person to give us life.” i.e If Bill Gate didn't create Microsoft, someone else would have created it. You have to make your passion your purpose and have a burning desire about it. Also, maintain and stay with your environment because if you take a fish out of the water, give it the best mansion in the world, and all money in the world, one thing will still happen. Do you know what will happen? It will die. Andre Gray, Christiano Ronaldo, Messi, and John Obi Mikel understood and followed this principle and that is why it's easy for them to do what they do for fame, for money, for their followers and millions of people, but you were not there when they were rehearsing and practicing tirelessly. Your self-actualization, concentration, and will power will influence your success. Myself and my colleagues are sacrificing our time, money, and effort, not because we don't have a busy schedule, but because life is more than paying bills and having billions of Naira, and like I say: “No-one is going to stand on your burial ceremony and say he had expensive shoes, or houses, but they will remember what you did for them.” I believe in altruism; If Napoleon could spend 25 years to study the riches and influenced more people to success than anyone in history, then I think it’s appropriate to say: “Anything is achievable with enough hard work and determination.” In the words ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS9AUmelF7Y
