Was It By Chance Or Is This My Destiny?

Meaningful and strong relationships take time and effort to build. If left unseasoned, cultivated, and taken care of, a relationship can go crumbling in a blink. While you may be talented and smart as an athlete, it's unlikely you will succeed without building great relationships with others - especially your loved ones and the people helping you prepare in the sport. By developing powerful relationships with others, you will be more successful, feel more supported and be more connected. So how do you build and maintain such positive relationships? Let's find out with Daraja Hill.
