632 Jay Williams: Life is Not an Accident

632 Jay Williams: Life is Not an Accident

“WHAT HAPPEN IF I WERE TO LIVE MY LIFE WITH NO EXCUSE?”
When I was injured as a pro athlete I felt I had really lost myself. I felt like my identity was stripped away from me.
I began comparing myself to my past -- to what I could have been. I doubted my entire future.
Chances are you’ve been through something similar. Maybe it was the loss of a job. Maybe you lost someone you depended on emotionally.
I eventually came to a realization. I could continue down this self destructive path, feeling like a helpless victim in a cruel world, or I could take my destiny into my own hands.
In the end, I decided to have faith that maybe this happened for a greater cause. I felt like maybe I was meant for something else. Something more important.
On this episode of The School of Greatness, I had the chance to sit down with someone who knows a lot about having to reinvent themselves: Jay Williams.
If you aren’t familiar with Jay Williams, he’s a former NBA pro. He came from a home that was surrounded by abusive relationships. When he was drafted at a young age, he didn’t know how to handle the fame and money.
His ego got in the way, and he ended up in a motorcycle accident and put his career on hold.
After a long recovery and massive amounts of physical therapy, he wound up back on the court only to suffer from injuries again. And again.
He came to the same cross road: either stay a victim and fall into a life of extreme hardship or take it as a sign he was meant for something else.
Today, Jay Williams is a television personality, motivational speaker, and successful businessman.
He says that his life, the parts that he values the most, started after his accident.
Hear all about his inspirational journey and why it's worth it to believe life happens for a reason, on Episode 632.
