When people ask me when I started to love fitness, I say when I discovered Pilates at 16. Not 6 when I started being coached in Tennis.
My time growing up as a competitive tennis player never brought me joy. I hated being on the courts. I hated practicing. I hated competing. I hated it all. But I played anyway. Because it looked good on my resume and well, I was good. My dad coached me so hard that I ended up making Varsity as a freshman and becoming Team Captain until I graduated.
You know, I always preach following your passion and listening to your heart! And yes that is 100% what you need to do, especially when it comes to making big, long term decisions. But the truth is, if you chose what made you instantly happy in every second of your life, you probably wouldn’t be going to school or eating vegetables or taking medicine.
What I’m saying is I’m glad I never quit. Because tennis made me a tougher, enduring, persistent person and I’ve become who I’ve become because of it. It’s made me a better Pilates Instructor too.
So dad, thank you. ❤️ #blogicomics
