@hahaharleen: I’ve always been scared to swim. When I was young I was overconfident and almost drowned twice in an effort to prove to myself I could swim if I only tried. Now, as an adult, I’m trying again because this time I know more. I know I need to relax even if it doesn’t come naturally. I know I need to pace myself even if my ego says I should jump in the deep end. I know I don’t need anyone else because I trust myself to know my limits and also push myself past my hesitations. The reason why I know all this is because I’ve made an active effort to try. To try and overcome my fears, try and experience as much as I can and try to have faith. Swimming is only one of the things I’m trying and it won’t be the last. I hope this encourages you to try, and deal with the preparation later (ofc there’s some things you need to be careful with). Don’t be reckless in your efforts but don’t be unwilling to make any either. #swimming #learning #effort
