Stop Focusing On Things That Don’t Matter | #AskASoccerPro Show Ep.023

In the #AskASoccerPro Show 11 year MLS vet Quincy Amarikwa breaks down the MSL (Mental Strength League), an ongoing game that he believes he and everyone else is a conscious or unconscious participant. This is a philosophy and mindset he has developed, refined and implemented over the course of his life and what he attributes to finding success in his personal, business, team and soccer endeavors… Resulting in the creation of the “Amarikwa Process.” A 7-step process Quincy refers to when tackling any endeavor or meeting new, temporary obstacles.

4. Consistency and dedication over time yield results.

5. No one has your perspective but you, which is what makes it very valuable.

6. You can be the best student of the game and learn everything there is about soccer, but if you don’t apply what you’ve learned it won't matter.
