Knowing vs. Doing

Still in the same stage — stuck at the breathing part. 

I’ve been watching so many YouTube videos, absorbing every tip and trick I can. On screen, it all seems simple. In my mind, it makes perfect sense. But the moment I dive into the water, that knowledge just… doesn’t click. The timing’s off. The breath doesn’t come. The stroke breaks down. 

I know what I’m supposed to do — but not quite how to make it happen in motion. And that’s frustrating. 

Swimming without a trainer definitely makes this a longer journey. There’s no real-time feedback, just trial and error. But I’m still showing up. I’m still trying. And I still believe I’ll figure it out.

Even when progress feels invisible, I know it’s happening. Quietly. Slowly. Below the surface.
