    In the final part of this series, I close out the story of my failed attempt to build a professional football club in Latvia. This is where everything came to a head; the breaking point, the fallout, and the moment I had to walk away. I share the hardest lessons I took from the experience, how I processed the failure, and why it ultimately became one of the most important turning points in my career. Part 3 isn’t just about endings, it’s about what happens next. I talk about how I rebuilt myself after the collapse, how the lessons from that journey shaped the way I now approach business and football, and why failure can sometimes be the foundation for your biggest future wins.

    How I Failed to Build a Pro Club Pt. 2

    In Part 2, I continue the story of my attempt to build a professional football club in Latvia, picking up where things started to spiral. I dive into the politics, the broken promises, and the behind-the-scenes chaos that made progress almost impossible. I talk about the mistakes I made as a young GM, the battles I didn’t see coming, and the moments where I realized the dream was slipping away. This episode is raw and honest. It’s not just about what went wrong; it’s about the lessons that came out of failure: how to navigate football’s politics, how to protect yourself when money and power are involved, and how to stay grounded when everything feels like it’s falling apart. If Part 1 was the vision and the spark, Part 2 is the crash course in reality, and why those experiences shaped how I now build RicFit and guide players chasing their dreams.
