Tell them the simplest truth:  tricks with a football.  Very cool, very difficult tricks.

To learn to succeed, you must first learn to fail.
It's what you do that counts, but it's how you do it which separates you from the rest.
You can't have creativity unless you leave behind the bounded, the fixed, all the rules.

I always tell them:
I train freestyle football. I can't explain this, you won't get this.
