Work needs to be a reflection of your social values. You are how you work!

My grandfather was running Hillcrest Country Club, and that's where a whole group of Hollywood comedians hung out.

In reality, we can prove that the incidents of drug, alcohol abuse and violence have dropped dramatically among professional athletes - but the problem is it would be impossible to convince than fans, because of what they read on the AP wire.

For a generation that gets most of its information off a computer screen (be it Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter or what have you), an athlete has to be very careful about the public/private aspect of that. Be careful not to be overly critical, be careful with use of language, and understand the whole world is watching.

But the equipment to protect the players hasn't developed along with that, so now you have more players out with worse injuries, for longer periods of time.

Very narrow areas of expertise can be very productive. Develop your own profile. Develop your own niche.
