My only advice is to try to get the job that's most like the job you want, rather than the one that's more prestigious. Always try to be the talent.
I have no regrets. I won with the most prestigious clubs in the world - Real Madrid and Juventus - and also with the national team. I won the Ballon d'Or and Fifa World Player at 33 years old.
At the age of 6, a teacher full of ambitions, who taught in the small public school of Biran, convinced my family that I should travel to Santiago de Cuba to accompany my older sister who would enter a highly prestigious convent school.

I'm honored and thankful to be partnering with the prestigious CFDA as one of the men's wear ambassadors for fashion week.
