Have you put your career on hold to follow your sporting dreams?
If you fall into this category then you will have a number worries weighing on your mind: What will I do when my sporting career is over? Will I adapt moving from the world of sport to the world of business? Is pursuing my sporting dreams worth delaying my career? What if my sporting dreams don’t come true - what then?
If these questions have ever crossed your mind then you are not alone. They are sensible fears encountered by any sportsperson. But these worries, like any other, will affect your sporting performance. Are you prepared to let your sporting performance suffer because you are uncertain about your future after your competing days over?
Have you made the right career decision?
60% to 70% of people do not like the their job. So, even if you know what you want to do after your sport is over, are you sure you have made the right decision? When people come out of college, many make mistakes about their chosen career. Yet they make those mistakes in their 20s, and generally by their 30s have got themselves on the right track. If your 20s are taken up playing sport, you want to be 100% sure that your chosen career is the right one when it comes down to earning a living. Quite simply you don’t have time to waste.
Discover your true path
When preparing for competition the key to success in thorough planning and preparation. The same is true of life. If you are going to launch yourself into a career when your sporting days are over, you need to plan now: you can’t afford to wait.
At Sportscounsel, in conjunction with our partner Achievement Discoveries, we offer a special testing programme called Life After Sport. What the testing programme does is discover your aptitudes. Aptitudes are our innate characteristics which are formed in the early years of our lives. Once fully developed they don’t change over time and an understanding of them can dramatically help us to make our path through life as comfortable as possible.
The half day testing, two to three hour summary and 40 page report costs $650 inc GST and can be carried out at your convenience. This is a small price to pay for your future security.
I have seen many people who are unhappy in their work. They curse their job yet don’t change because they don’t know what else to do. Those people don’t know their own aptitudes. It is like fitting a square peg in a round hole. If they understood their aptitudes they would be able to find out exactly what job they should be doing.
The same applies in sport
Have you ever had a situation where one coach’s training methods suit you better than another? It is well known in coaching circles that different coaching styles and different training methods fit different people. The reason for this is because different athletes have different aptitudes. Aptitudes can even affect your choice of sport. By knowing your aptitudes you will be equipped with the information to assist in sport selection and performance.
So if you are wondering why you need aptitude testing now, then not only will it take away the worry of life after sport, but also help your sporting performance.
It changed my life
That is what a lot of people say when they have completed our testing. The Life After Sport programme is adapted from Achievements Discoveries' Natural Gifts and More package. Here's what some people had to say about their testing:
Almost at the end of my working career, I attended the Aptitude Testing session because I was curious as wall as interested. It has confirmed for me several of the career directions I took. If you are still seeking the right career choice or are dissatisfied in your present position, then to an Aptitude Testing session. It is the best investment you can make in yourself.
