In this episode of Chasing Greatness, I’m in Cairo, Egypt with the Los Angeles handball club for our first ever Club World Championships. I’m showing you what it really takes to keep chasing a dream I’ve been after for 18 years, even after your manifestations do not unfold according to plan.
The team came in with one practice together and played 3 tough matches against some of the best players in the world! I talk about why every big goal takes longer and is harder than you think, and why I can live with failing as long as I know I went for it. In the end, what matters most is who you become and the people you share the journey with.
