Gymnast
I came to a realization tonight as I was driving home after practice, feeling less than satisfied with myself. I need to quite my whining. I have come damn far after only a few months of doing this, and there are so many people that are amazed by the fact that as an adult, I do gymnastics. That in and of itself is an accomplishment to be proud of, that I am doing something I love. I am putting too much pressure on myself between school and work, that I shouldn't be putting that pressure on myself with my gymnastics with getting all my skills yesterday. I have to learn that this stuff will take time, I'm not going to just walk in and get this stuff. Sure, I really want to get on team, and there are a few choice skills holding me back (Mainly bars, but we can't all be great at everything), but that team's season isnt even OVER yet. And as long as I keep working at what I am doing, I will get it, and the more frustrated I get with myself, the more chance I have at taking a HUGE step in the WRONG direction. So I just needed to rant to you guys, because I know you all know what it is like to just want to say, forget it, Im done. I am never going to get that one move. And for the couple of people who have to listen to me whine on a regular basis, I am truly sorry
