Transitioning from professional athlete to business professional can be a very daunting time. Especially if your whole sporting career has centered around one main focus and goal – being the very best professional athlete you can be. Unfortunately, and understandably so, the majority of athletes in today’s pro sports industry do little to nothing to prepare for a career after sports.
This is understandable, as to be the very best in your sport you need to work on your game day in day out, have minimal distractions and have a single focus. Of course, this is a common misconception but it’s how most athletes think.
That’s why after retirement athlete’s are hit with a harsh reality – “What on earth do I do now and how!!”

However, if you don’t tackle this reality head on, it can be a downwards spiral towards long term unfulfillment and a life of struggle after sport. That’s why the first 4 years after retirement are highly critical in setting yourself up for a successful career in business and a fulfilling life!
Here are some tips to ensure the first 4 years are the best they can be:
