NASHVILLE, TN, March 13, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Retail Marketing and Advertising firm CG International have long maintained that having a sporting mentality can be a huge boost to those looking to pursue entrepreneurship. Playing sport, especially team sport can help individuals learn and hone skills that are highly desirable in business, such as communication, self-discipline and decision-making. Often in sport, participants are required to think on their feet and react to changes quickly; something CG International thinks is just as crucial in the current business landscape. With these skills being in great demand in the business world, the firm believe it's no coincidence that many American Sports stars turn to business at some point in their careers. One such sportsman, whom CG International believes to be strong role model for business professionals, is ex-Football Player Lewis Howes, who since retiring from the sport has now made a name for himself as an online entrepreneur and author.

Howes Football career began at University, where he succeeded in achieving the NCAA record for most receiving yards in a single game, having caught 17 passes for 418 yards. His success at college and university level drove him to pursue a career in professional football, however disaster struck when Howes collided with a wall whilst trying to make a catch. The accident left him with a broken wrist and after continuing the rest of the season he was forced to undertake corrective surgery, which ultimately ended his promising football career.
With a future in Football out of the question Howes moved to New York and began channelling his sporting talents into handball. Whilst he made it on to the USA National Men's' Team Howes still wasn't content with his lot in life and tuned his attention to the business world. Despite being fairly clueless on how to build a career within business, Howes channelled his desire for constant improvement which he developed in his sports career and began to teach himself about marketing so that he could put himself in a position to add real value to the business world. Since taking the plunge into business Howes has been on an incredible journey, establishing a million dollar online company, becoming a New York Times best seller and making a name for himself as a motivational speaker and lifestyle coach.
CG International is confident that Howes is an ideal role model for those looking to follow entrepreneurship and that his journey to business success can provide a great deal of motivation, especially to those who have experienced setbacks in their career. Instead of giving up when he could no longer live out his football dreams, Howes turned his misfortune into opportunity and embraced change in order to find success. He called upon the self-discipline and work ethic he developed during his football career to better himself and put the foundations in place to support a successful future in business. CG International believes that Howes rocky journey to success highlights how with self belief, vision and determination anyone can achieve success.
