This is the first episode ever in the Think And Learn Smarter Experience. Here I sit down with Diarmuid Murtagh, current Roscommon footballer and a primary school teacher in Ballymun, Dublin. We chat about Diarmuid's experience dealing with balancing both county football and the Leaving Cert, college and his job later in life. 

In addition we talk about the run he had with Roscommon underage winning 4 Connacht titles in 5 years along with the breakthrough into the senior setup culminating in 2 more Connacht titles and a deep run in the All Ireland. 

Finally we chat about what it's like being a teacher and what lessons translate to sport along with how he manages his day to aid his performance on the pitch. 

The approximate time stamps of the episode are as follows:

00:00 - 05:30 Intro, Teaching and coaching.
