Seeing all those videos on YouTube where creators reveal their daily lives as students and full-time professionals have encouraged me to do something similar.

In the last week, I have made adjustments in my ongoing efforts to manage my life as a full-time content creator while training 5+ hours a day to play badminton professionally one day.

And there’s nothing I can say except that this has been the greatest challenge of my life.

How can I get the most out of my training and improve so I can one day play internationally without running out of money?

I have been working on this problem for over five years, and while I have not reached my vision, I have gotten immensely closer to achieving my dreams.

I started as a teen with limitations on everything.

Training was expensive and came at the mercy of my parents, who weren’t always on board with my plans and goals. I did what I could to improve with what I had, from 5 AM runs in the winter on ice to doing footwork outside during thunderstorms.
