ONE-HANDED BASKETBALLER: You have no reason to fail!

By Dr. Bólá Adéwará

In a world where challenges often serve as convenient excuses, the story of a one-handed basketball player shatters every preconceived notion of limitation. While most athletes rely on both hands to dribble, shoot, and pass, this remarkable individual has honed his skills to a level that rivals even the best two-handed players. His journey is not just a testament to his physical abilities but a powerful lesson on the futility of making excuses.

From the outside, it would be easy to assume that basketball would be out of reach for someone with only one hand. But for this athlete, the absence of a second hand was never an obstacle—it was simply a different starting point. Instead of focusing on what he lacked, he devoted himself to maximising what he had. Through relentless practice, he developed a style of play that is uniquely his own, turning what others might see as a disadvantage into an extraordinary strength.

For all of us, his story is a call to action. The next time we are tempted to make excuses, we should remember that … *_Overcoming challenges is not about what we lack but about how we use what we have._* The path to success is not determined by the obstacles in our way but by how we choose to navigate them.

In the end, the one-handed basketball player is not just an exceptional athlete; he is a symbol of the incredible potential that lies within each of us when we refuse to let excuses define our lives.
