Olympic Gold Changed Me And My Life

Olympic Gold Changed Me And My Life Dramatically. I Became A Celebrity Overnight And People See Me As A Famous Skater, Not A Real Person.

I Have A Lot Of Different Stages In My Life When Training Has Been Easy Or Hard. Now, It Seems That I Have Been Training For So Long That It Has Become Almost Second Nature To Me.

One Shouldn't Be Afraid To Lose; This Is Sport. One Day You Win; Another Day You Lose. Of Course, Everyone Wants To Be The Best. This Is Normal. This Is What Sport Is About. This Is Why I Love It.

Professional Competitions Are Overrated.

...competitive Skaters Must Be Prepared For A Lot Of Work, Challenges, Self-discipline, And Motivation. The Desire Must Be There, But More Importantly, Your Love For The Sport.
