My identity was so wrapped up in who I was as a wrestler and my vision quest to become an NCAA champ. I calculated most of my life around practice times and being prepared physically and mentally for them. I planned when and what I ate and every partner Iād train with and why. I learned to control all the things I could. The margin of error between good and great and attaining the goal or missing it was so narrow.
