Knowing when to quit is just as important as working hard.
After about an hour of hooping outdoors in the beautiful breeze (and with my blindfold) I finally have to admit defeat. There were a few moments that I was in the zone, but I was largely distracted by knee pain. My right knee is now noticeably bigger than the left so, I think it's time for an ice pack, music and some coffee.
Often times when I am not hooping up to par (to my self imposed standards) I will try and push through it - work harder! But, why take the joy out of something I love (and hurt my knee further)? Would I tell a student to do that? Nope. It's time for a feel better playlist. Seriously, just sit back/hit play/get lost in the music.
I love doing that.
