« I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. »
This Michael Jordan quote is close my philosophy of life. By playing Basketball I learnt a lot about people, solidarity and determination. We must never give up and pay attention to teammates, whatever type of team.
I know how to manage people. Being a basketball coach and working with kids in a middle school were great experiences. After all, kids are just adults without a filter. Thanks to these jobs, I acquired open-mindedness and management skills.
I try to gain more and more knowledge about different disciplines in order to put all odds in my favour, which is why I have a two year degree in Marketing techniques and am currently studying Management Sciences.
