The Ultimate Plot Twist
Week 40 of 42
Just last week, I said it:
I’ve been defeated.
Now?
This week felt like a resurrection.
Everything Started Moving Again
My outreach started working.
New leads every day.
Momentum finally building back up.
And then out of nowhere?
Two inbound leads on LinkedIn—
Without even doing things “right.”
No strategy, no consistency, just showing up from time to time.
That tells you a lot about LinkedIn’s potential.
And where I’ll be doubling down in the future.
The real plot twist?
I got signed to play in the 1st league of Spain.
Yeah. That just happened.
Honestly, it feels strange.
Of all the seasons where I’ve pushed, trained, and given everything–this might be the one I “deserved” it the least.
But here it is.
And I’m not about to let this opportunity pass.
This is the dream I had since I was 11, and then the one that fade away at the beginning of 2024.
Since then I had not only lost hope of that to happen, but I lost all motivation, excitment and joy to play handball
Letting me in a really toguh spot where I’ve been for more than a year.
From that moment on, everything handball related felt a new obligation, I didn’t even care about.
And with this new adventure, I’m gonna try not only to live my “childhood dream I no longer had”, but to recover the happiness and excitement from playing handball and trying to become better.
Pressing Pause (A Bit)
The timing couldn’t be crazier.
Just as business was taking off,
Just as I was starting to get real momentum…
I need to pull the brakes a bit.
This next month and a half will demand more from me—
More training hours.
More rest.
More presence.
So business goes into maintenance mode.
Not quitting.
Just shifting the priority—
Because this might still be my last handball season.
And I want to end it proud.
The Challenge Is Alive Again
And here’s the twist I didn’t see coming—
The challenge is back on.
If I end the season strong,
If I lay the final bricks of my business foundation…
I will have succeeded.
And even if I fall short?
If I stay true to my priorities and give it all I’ve got—
That’s a win in my book.
Let’s end this right.
See you next week.
