    Reaction paper about Michael Phelps

    After watching the Michael Phelps .I have learned lot of things.The tips that I learn is -Prepare for
    Success

    Michael Phelps did not just dive into a pool for the first time and come up with an Olympic gold medal.
    Throughout his career, Phelps has amassed countless years of intense and structured training and has
    taken care of his body by working out and eating 12,000 calories every day.

    -Do Not Be Afraid to Announce Your Goals Publicly

    Another thing that sets Phelps apart from many other athletes; his goal to win eight Olympic medals in
    the Beijing Olympics was publicized far in advance of the races themselves. That may not seem like
    much of a feat in today’s world, which is so connected via social networking, but even four years ago
    things were much different.

    -Work With Your Strengths and Weaknesses, Accentuating the Positives

    Michael Phelps is of course in excellent physical shape and has a wonderful physique for swimming. He
    does work out constantly to train for events but much of his physique is due to genetics. For example,
    despite his athleticism he would not likely have made a good gymnast.

    -Assemble a Team to Support You in Pursuing Your Goals

    Michael Phelps was the only one in the pool when he won his individual medals, but there is a team of
    support people who have been with him along the way to the top. Michael Phelps’ mother Debbie
    Phelps, his long-time swimming coach Bob Bowman, his teammates whom he swam relays with and all
    of his friends, family and fans, all played an important part in his success.

    -Never Give Up

    It wasn’t all gold and silver for Michael Phelps. For example, after his first Olympics he had an arrest for
    driving while intoxicated while he was under the age of 21. He has also suffered injuries at different
    points in his career that had an effect on his ability to maintain his training regimen. At one point during
    the Beijing Olympics Phelps’ swimming goggles leaked so that he was unable to see and had to finish
    (and win) the race simply by counting his strokes.
