playing basketball or education?  email this discussion to a friend?

jazper26 (37) 2 years ago

I'm always in this situation that choosing for playing basketball or graduating college. I enjoyed playing basketball since I am high school playing for my school and i prefer playing basketball than studying about my lessons because i find basketball more harder than studying, but when I looking for my college school I took the entrance exam at one of the famous university and i failed, but when i try-out for there basketball they accept me and help me to study in there school to play basketball that's why i almost prefer playing basketball than education even education is one of the very important in your life.

You can always play basketball while going to school- but it would be hard to balance your time.. even though you enjoy the sport you can't neglect education- basketball won't last forever you know.. So I wish you good luck and hope you do better in school- you can have a tutor..

dude, piece of advise... dont even think of skipping school just for basketball. i've been to that before and i'd say i regretted i chose basketball first before education. my reason? in basketball, your body deteriorated with age. in education, your mind dont deteriorate at all. it stay sharper thru time. you retire playing basketball at age 35, by then you wont be able to play to your top game when you are at your prime lets say 25 years old? whereas in college, you can practice your profession even at age 90. engineers, architects, doctors, teachers and other professionals are at their best past 60 years wherein your hair is aging. you may play in the NBA and earn multimillion contract but that ends at age 35, and afterwards you go bankrupt. professionals get higher pays and contracts at age 40 plus and ends at age 60-80 and theres a guarantee that you wont get bankrupt since projects are just around the corners. theres nothing like that in a basketball league.

believe me dude... a basketball career wont get you far. professional careers do. if you dominate the basketball court all that time, then thats enough but if you dominate your field of study, then you are a legend in you family and your great great grandchildren will follow your footsteps.

heheh... good thing. a career in basketball is just pure luck if successful... maybe lucky you got talent but theres a million more who want to be professional basketball players and theres only slots for 12 in each team and 5 for starting lineups and if you count all teams in professional leagues in your place, theres not room for millions. sure its good to be one of the heroes in the game but it doesnt matter much in the long run.

Prioritize your studies first. Just play basketball later. Or if you think you can manage both then do them both. There are things we like to do and things we need to do and we should prioritize the needs first before the likes. It's like drinking water first then eating candy.
