As a young tennis coach go and find a mentor because you are who you surround yourself with.

Let me provide you with an example of a shark.

If you put the shark in an aquarium it’s going to grow only 20-30 centimeters.

If you put him in the ocean, it has the potential to be a beast.

So, I (Izo) encourage all young tennis coaches to go and find the people that you are inspired by. Maybe on the way you get disappointed, but that’s not a problem. Just go out there, look for mentors, and don’t worry about people’s opinion because people actually are not talking about you. People usually don’t have a time to talk about you because they’re worried about themselves. So, as a young tennis coach just put the passion in, find a mentor and go out there and fail. Fail miserably. It’s OK. You’re going to learn from it and you’re going to get better.
