Why I Didn't Quit

Why I Didn't Quit
Why I didn’t quit my sport when it got tough—and why you shouldn’t either
I used to repeatedly go through the school day only able to think about how much I didn’t want to go to afternoon swim practice. Every Saturday night I would go to bed with a pit in my stomach, thinking about my three-hour practice the next morning. My sport, which was supposed to be something I enjoyed, was a major source of dread in my life.
