playing basketball or education?

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.

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..

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.

if u r more intrested in basketball then study. u concentrate on playing basketball first,second study .Otherwise concentrate on study first
