Follow sports, work out daily
I am avid follower of basket ball, football and baseball. The two teams that I am passionately loyal to are the NY Knick and NY Giants. I can humbly say that I know all the players on these teams as if I were an analysis which maybe I will have the honor to professional engage in one day. I follow them daily, understand plays and sometimes call differences than the Coach which I can debate would have worked better. It's what I do. I also have a very good work out ethic and go to the gym every day.
