All right Thrive Nation, welcome back to the Thrive Time

broadcast, the Thrive Time Podcast, where we break down the specific moves that you can use to build a successful business.

And during today's podcast, I asked my friend, my partner, David Robinson, how he knew that it was time to retire from his Hall of Fame basketball career.

He could have played, you know, two more years, maybe three more years.

He was playing at a very high level, better than most basketball players ever aspire to achieve.

But yet David Robinson decided to retire from the game he loved

and to become a full-time dad.

How did he know it was the right time and what did he do with his free time after retiring

from his career on the hardwoods as an NBA basketball player and really legend.

But any further ado, my conversation with David Robbins.

When it came time for you to retire,

because I'm going to throw a couple scenarios at you.

I just want to see how you made the

decision-making process. You'd hurt your back a few times. You had back spasms or what was going

on there? No, I had a little partially slipped disc there in my lower back, so it was causing a little bit of

discomfort, but you know, but I'd say that wasn't probably the number one thing I had you know

knee issues but that wasn't the number one thing I think it was just time for me to

stop so how did you

decide it was time to stop because you were you were really good you just won a

championship yeah what made you decide not to come back and you know and nothing

against Brett Farf and I every time he came back, I got more excited.
