At the advice of a friend of mine, I decided to chronicle my journey to become a head coach!
For those who do not know me, my dream is to one day be a very very successful head coach of a major high school. I would really love the opportunity one day to move to Texas or Florida and become a coaching legend there. I also want to become a high school counselor. The reason I want to do this is because I see a lot of kids who need someone to show they actually care about them and they need positive black male role models in their life. I want to to show my players that sports is a great outlet and a great way to stay in trouble, but that it is not the only way to improve your current situation.
I finally feel like I am ready to become a head coach so I have started my search. There are a few smaller schools I plan on applying to so I am hoping for the best.
The first part of the process for me is finishing school. I am taking 18 credit hours this semester and 6 credit hours during the summer so I can start my teaching classes in the fall. I know this will be tough especially working full time but whatever it takes for me to achieve this dream I am willing to do! When I start my teaching classes a school will be able to hire as a contracted teacher.
Over the next coming weeks I will continue to update you on how things are panning out and also on what I am doing to achieve my goals.
Can't wait to watch you succeed in life :) you are a great person!! I know you will achieve your goal!
