I never realized at the time the type of impact the lessons and mental tools I acquired through the sport of figure skating and competing as an Olympian would have on me as I navigate my adult life. Figure skating taught me to never give up. No matter how cliche that sounds it’s the truth. No matter how tired, how hopeless things are, how scared I might be of an obstacle I’m facing- I keep going. When I have thought I can’t keep going, I just keep going. Just like I did so many times in my career and most importantly this night so many years ago when I had never felt fear like that before. I truly thought I was going to faint while waiting for my music to start. I realize now all of those years of physical and mental training prepared me for that job no matter how fear wanted to interfere. Skating has taught me that hard work pays off. Not just the big wins but the little wins as well. The little wins that no one saw when I was training and finally hit a landing just the way I wanted to. To this day I enjoy those little wins that no one sees. I push myself to keep finding the little wins on the way to bigger win. It’s not easy but I try to enjoy the ride. And most importantly I reflect back on that little girl who loved skating so much. The joy I felt that night where I forgot I was skating in front of millions of people. I remind myself often that life has all those joys and I better find them and live life with that big smile as often as I can. Sending love to you all!! thank you for supporting me along the way and to this day. Xoxo @pangiehubbard 🎥」2月21日 2時39分
