I enjoyed the position I was in as a tennis player. I was to blame when I lost. I was to blame when I won. And I really like that, because I played soccer a lot too, and I couldn't stand it when I had to blame it on the goalkeeper.
I know that plans and reality may be two different things, but I think my demands on life are minimal.
I constantly make lists and itineraries and then can't stick to any of them.
