It all started when…

I was around 14 years old, I was a very competitive national standard swimmer. It was all I wanted to do, forget about school, I just wanted to swim. I wanted to represent my country. I wanted to go to the Olympics. Unfortunately I didn’t. A crippling knee injury put paid to those dreams, and sport in general for quite some time. It was at this point, like most stroppy teenagers I went of the rails for a few years. My schoolwork went to pot, but I managed to get myself into college, where I studied Graphic Design. 2 Years later I passed my course and shortly afterwards started my first job as a Junior Graphic Designer. I worked my way up the corporate ladder, holding out for that gold watch and retirement plan. Until one day I was reading a magazine and saw an advert promoting a Sports Psychology Diploma. Almost instantly I signed up. Why?…..
