Coaching Beyond the Pool: Happy Socks

by John Barnes

Do you have a tough time throwing things away? If you know, you know! I have a massive drawer dedicated to socks, with most of them being what you would expect to find in a sock drawer. But some are quite different, including compression, hospital, and even thermal socks.

Undoubtedly, half of my socks are argyle, gingham, tartan, and various mismatched socks, I have it all!

But these socks are more than just accessories. They are a reminder to me that countless people are a part of my extraordinary life. They also remind me not to take life too seriously. After all, it’s hard to take life too seriously when wearing a pair of ugly socks!

So, mix a little foolishness with your serious plans this week and don’t forget to wear your happy socks!
