Dream Behavior
INDISCRETIONS OF PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES
The path and road in the life of professional athletes is challenged by the travails and temptations of an environment hedged and driven by money, marketing and media. These predicates form the basis of an expanding world of make-believe. Where astronomical dollars and generational wealth has changed the psychological and questionable intellectual capacity of the athlete to understand the attraction, sometimes fatal involvement of sex, drugs, aberrant choices, destructive behavior and the dichotomous illusions that the dream world of fame and fortune is everlasting.
Understanding the opulent oasis of the sports theater, where the lore of admiration, fulfillment of a dream, achieving an ambition and reaching a goal, all provide the construct in the never before arena of existence. This high-flying life will bring opportunities of distractions, parties, beautiful accommodating women and substances that conflict with the use of the body as the engine that fuels the athletic possibilities and supports the passion and dream that drives one to achieve. Further, there’s always an ever-present array of yes-men offering untold investments, family members that want to be included and hanger-ons that surround the drama of the sports action hero.
Choices and awareness are the cornerstones and guideposts for young athletes pursuing a dream that can be threatened by injury, aberrant behavior, loss of position, politics and human relationships. These events and circumstances can swiftly truncate an athletic dream. Passion remains the key to fuel the dream, to keep one focused, to nurture one’s desire and summon forth a sounding trumpet that will never call retreat, because dreams can dry up like raisins in the sun if not nourished everyday.
