I’m a basketball coach, In my dream there were three of me at the same time. We were in this dream having a good time. We are all very similar to one another. We all have jobs. We have similar things in common. Such as making a bunch of money for our families. 

In real life but in my dream I won a championship as a coach for my school varsity team. I also was in another city building houses as well. I was also a sports broadcaster living in a different city in my dream. 

 In my dream Josiah number one met Josiah number two and Josiah number three met a coffee shop near our houses and we talked about our personal lives and what we all are doing to provide for our families and making money and we all talked about giving back to the community and being leaders in the community. 

As Josiah number one was sitting in the coffee shop he also thought about what he could've done as a coach in the championship game to keep rotations going. He was putting people in at the wrong time in the game. He had the point guard call out the plays for him in the championship game and he was calling all out the defensive sets that caused his team the championship game in his dream. 

Josiah number one the future broad sat down and gave some Josiah number one and he told look “I'm a broadcaster this what I wanted to do this for my career ever since I was middle as a kid watching Stephen A. Smith and that means you don't sit and drink your coffee thinking  about the game and what went wrong and sad. In the offseason  watch film and pick the right team and fix the rotations and call the plays out as a coach next time Josiah. He told number one at the coffee shop you have to make good and smarter decisions next tim.” Josiah number three then jumps into the conversation and says I agree you have the tools to the puzzle, you just have to put the pieces together next time coach and run and work your players hard so they not only be ready for the year's championship game but get ready for highschool and college and the NBA league coach. 

You have the best middle school team ever just fix the mistakes next time coach. In the dream Josiah number two asked Josiah one which is me in real life hopefully but he asked him why did he choose the career of a basketball coach and he explained why he did.

 I prayed to be a basketball coach since 5th grade. I wanted to be around the game of basketball and invest in my future.I want to be in a  basketball program that pays players to play to get them to the next level and teach them the way of life. 

Josiah number one said, “I believe in the future of basketball”

Number two asked, “what does that mean?”

 and Josiah number three asked him what does that mean as well and he told them that he is gonna be the director and do his best to get his players to the next level and be the best coach or director of his own league ever. He believes that the future of basketball can make a name for themselves and fold under pressure when they get the name tag that they wanted. That means the future big talented players especially they big players they want a name everybody would remember them by. So that's why I wan’t pursue my dream of investing in this type of business or business in general because I want to make money.

  Both Josiah number two and Josiah number three asked Josiah number one “where do you coach and where do you live? and where do you want to start your ?  and basketball and do host basketball camps ? or are you willing to host different camps? for the future of basketball.”       Josiah number answered and said, “Yes I will try to find the players and see how they play and scout them. I will do all these things.”

 I will make them stand out and make sure their talent is noticed on a big stage and send them to the best schools at the moment and the best programs I can think of. For example, I want to send my kids to the schools I didn't go to and have a chance to go like all the cathlolic schools and small highschools and small middle schools in small towns.

 I wanna live and coach middle school basketball in Peoria Illinois or in the Illinois area like in a small town in Illinois because coaches make a decent amount of money. I want to keep supporting my children and keep my relationship healthy. Josiah number one then asked number two did he actually want that career to be his dream he chose?

 He chose sports broadcasting and that is simple and “I'm not a shy person. I know it's not simple but it’s easy to talk in front of a screen and talk about the difference between different basketball players and figuring out who's the best ever. To me the greatest is Lebron James.”


 “I want to be a sports broadcaster because I can entertain people and tell them how he is the greatest of all time and I was going to mention is finals appearances and how many MVP of the league he has and that means most valuable player that award is handed to the best player and to be honest he should have 10 more because he’s been the best player in the league ever” 


Since 2003 when he got drafted into the league because before the league Lebron. didn't even go to college and Michael went to college but before he entered the league when was a freshman in highschool he was already being compared to Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. That's a dream of mine, Sports broadcasting.
