Why Is It Such A Big Deal

I Wanted To Do Something Nobody Ever Did. This Goes Hand In Hand With My Goal Of Changing Swimming.

Water Has Always Been A Large Part Of My Life, So For Me Now, Being A Father With Another Child On The Way, I'm Just Teaching Some Of The Small Things I've Been Able To Learn - And Passing That Onto The Younger Generation. Small Things Like Turning Your Faucet Off When You Brush Your Teeth, Not Taking A 30-minute Shower When You Really Don't Need To. So I Want To Teach The Younger Generation To Spread The Message And Make A Difference. I'm Almost More Excited To Do This Than I Was To Swim.

So Many People Along The Way,whatever It Is You Aspire To Do, Will Tell You It Can't Be Done. But It All It Takes Is Imagination. You Dream. You Plan. You Reach. There Will Be Obstacles. There Will Doubters. There Will Be Mistakes. But With Hard Work, With Belief, With Confidence And Trust In Yourself And Those Around You, There No Limits.

There Are So Many Things That I Still Want To Do. My Foundation, Growing My Brand . . . The List Is Endless. I'm Honestly Busier Now Than I Was When I Was Swimming. It's Kind Of Weird, But I Feel Like More Of An Adult Because I Have To Do Stuff Every Day. Whether It's Checking Emails Or Making Phone Calls Or Doing This And That, It's Fun For Me. It's The Start Of A New Chapter. At Times, It Is Frustrating, But I Know It's Not Going To Be Easy To Accomplish The Goals That I Want.

I Engaged In Behavior Which Was Regrettable And Demonstrated Bad Judgment. I'm 23 Years Old And Despite The Successes I've Had In The Pool, I Acted In A Youthful And Inappropriate Way, Not In A Manner People Have Come To Expect From Me. For This, I Am Sorry. I Promise My Fans And The Public It Will Not Happen Again.
