Thomas Williams with Permission To Dream
Did you know\u2026 only 1% of college athletes will go on to play professionally? Now, we see these athletes all the time because we\u2019re usually chanting their names in front of our TVs with friends.\n\nBut what happens to the other 99% who take off their uniforms\u2026and never step inside a locker room again?\n\nFor Thomas R. Williams, taking off the uniform was something he never planned for.\n\nNicknamed \u201cThe Hitman\u201d, he was the image of a talented football player. A two-time national champ for the University of Southern California and an NFL career first at Jacksonville and then Tampa.\n\nBut a career-ending neck injury in 2012 forced Thomas to look in the mirror and ask the same question 99% of athletes have to ask themselves each year: \u201cWho am I, now that the helmet is off?\u201d\n\nOne career shift later, Thomas had his answer. And he\u2019s helping other athletes find their answer too.\n\nSHIFTERS WISDOM:\n\u201cIdentify your strengths because your strengths are what made you successful in your previous career and it\u2019s those same strengths that will make you successful in your next career.\u201d\n\n\n(thomas@thomasrwilliams.com | www.thomasrwilliams.com | https://www.instagram.com/TRW_permissiontodream/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasrwilliams/) \n\nMusic by Broke For Free
