So I feel like you almost have to treat yourself like you can be that easily influenced.
So you have to be very careful about the voices that you're letting enter your space, the conversations you have, the stuff you're looking on social media.
You gotta be very clean with your headspace.
I think Athena summed it up better than I could.
That's awesome.
You know, I'll throw it back to my parents.
As a kid, they always told us the three Ps, and it was preparation, perseverance, and persistence.
And for me, that definitely leans into my parents' immigrant story.
But for me, really, in any endeavor I've ever gone into, the first step is to prepare as much as you can.
and then to persevere and persist, because there's always gonna be adversity, there's always gonna be roadblocks, but it's that discipline, that determination, and that resolve that's eventually gonna get you to come out on top.
Yeah.
So I guess to honor my parents, I started a nonprofit called Nigerian American Football Outreach.
And it's really just growing the game from a grassroots standpoint back home in Nigeria.
I work with Ossie Umunyora, New York Giant, Super Bowl legend.
He's the head of NFL Africa, the international African division for the NFL.
And they've been doing a lot of scouting camps, a lot of combines.
They actually found a kid, Uwar Bernard, who was in a village in Nigeria.
He's never put on football pads.
He's been to maybe three of Ossie's camps, and he just got drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Wow.
