Gain from competing the massive satisfaction that competing offers. Yet be a well-rounded, sensitive, literate human being.

Keep it in its place, behind your family, your concern for the general life of the world, and your education. There are athletes and coaches who prepare to act as if athletics were life; it is not. It is but a corner—and a rich one—of life which will contribute immensely to the holistic development of the individual.
