In a recent interview on the Big Time podcast, Lionel Messi, currently playing for Inter Miami, shared insights into his career, aspirations, & contemplations on retirement.

Messi’s reflection on his illustrious career reveals a deep sense of gratitude & contentment: “On a sporting level I was lucky enough to be able to achieve all my dreams & the truth is that I can’t ask for more.” This acknowledgment of fulfillment emphasizes his remarkable journey in football & the profound impact it has had on his life, both professionally & personally.

Grateful for the opportunities bestowed upon him, Messi expressed appreciation for the support from his loved ones and the joy he finds in his craft: ” Thank God he gave me so much on a professional & human level, as well as with my family, & my friends. I try to enjoy everything God has given me so far, which is a lot. “I know that the moment I feel that I am no longer ready to perform, that I am no longer enjoying myself or helping my team-mates. I’m very self-critical of myself, I know when I’m good, when I’m bad, when I’m playing well, & when I’m playing badly”.
