Recently I had a phone conversation with a close friend in which I attempted to derive the source of my recent loss of passion and fire for water polo. As we talked about it, I started saying how it wasn't fun for me anymore, practicing with varsity because I was always beat by older, more experienced, bigger, more skilled varsity guys, and maybe that was the reason I'd lost my fire. After listening intently to me, my friend came up with up with a simple answer, just six words, that made everything clear to me. 'Maybe you need to work harder.'His simple answer really made me realize, I'd really been slacking off alot. I hadn't been working hard at all, and I'd basically let that become the norm for me.
I am so grateful that I have such great people like my friend looking out for me; people like him inspire me, humble me, and most of all set an example for me that I try to follow. It's important that we look after each other. If I got your back, you got his back, he got her back and she's got my back, we're a big lovin' family. Just remember, I got your back.
