Learning how to swim
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009Let’s say you don’t know how to swim and you decide it’s finally time to learn. You want to overcome your fear of water.
So, you find a local gym or pool club. Maybe there’s even a public pool that you weren’t aware of.
Then, you look online to find a swim instructor. After plenty of wrong numbers, you find someone who’s really passionate about helping people learn how to swim.
Next, you need to get the gear! You look online and find a bathing suit. Ohh, there’s one you like. Eh, you don’t really like it, after all. You go to another website.
You find the bathing suit. Ugh, it’s not in stock! After spending 3 hours searching you finally find the one.
What about goggles? Can’t swim without goggles!
The big day comes. It’s the day of your first lesson.
You realize that you don’t have any shoes to wear by the pool! Whoops! You can’t swim without shoes to wear around the pool!
So you cancel and reschedule.
You’ve done everything you could possibly do BUT swim.
Sometimes, no matter what, we just gotta jump in the pool.
It’s like the monster I always talk about. Once you see it, it’s not so bad.
