Commentators just told a very interesting story about the goalkeeper of Iceland team.
At some point no team wanted him and he spent 5 years out of work. So he kept training on his own and during this idle time got another profession - learned how to make ad videos.
After a while he became the best advertisement director in his country and directed Coca-Cola commercial for the World Cup.
Along with that he finally got back to playing soccer and now has two successful full-time careers.
What really amazes me about this is his self-confidence. For five years no one believed in him, but he believed in himself.
I can't even believe in myself when other people believe in me.
Let alone if for five years no one was interested in hiring me.
Where in the world do guys like him get self-confidence like this?
