  3. Today marks exactly 10 years since I went to Spain to pursue my football dream. The first picture is me at UD Almería reserve side. This was the only dream I ever had. Football wasn’t just something I loved. I believed it was going to be the way I got my family out of poverty. Growing up without my parents and watching my grandparents carry our family every single day made me realize that I couldn’t wait until I was older to change our lives. Poverty doesn’t wait for anyone. It keeps coming until someone decides to fight back. If you had told me back then that I wouldn’t become a footballer, I would never have believed you. I came home from Spain with a torn ACL, and although I had opportunities to continue playing, life had different plans. Looking back now, I can honestly say God knew what I couldn’t see. I took the same discipline, hunger and love I had for football and poured it into business. Today I’m known for something I never imagined I’d do. I never thought I’d become a businessman, a leader or someone who could help change other people’s lives because, honestly, my own life was the one that needed changing. Ten years later, I’m not where I want to be yet, but one thing I’ll always thank God for is allowing me to break the cycle of poverty in my family. As you swipe through these pictures, you’re not just seeing a journey. You’re seeing proof that sometimes God will take away the dream you planned so He can give you the purpose He planned. Ten years later… all I can say is thank You, God. ❤️
