A. I. won’t help you when you are drowning.

I’m sorry to be so dramatic but water safety doesn’t get much traction on social media and I needed to grab your attention somehow.

You see, over 50% of world’s population cannot swim unassisted.

Everyday thousands of children and adults die in the water. Some due to lack of understanding the risks water poses.

Some due to irresponsible behaviour like consuming alcohol before swimming.

And some due to accidents and inability to float or swim.

This is a close topic to me as I have been afraid of water all my life and couldn’t swim until the age of 32.

But one day I decided to change all that and face my fear.

I not only learned to swim but I committed a huge part of my life to it. I became obsessed with learning about it and everything there is about water.

And as I gotten really good at swimming, all other areas of my life improved.

I became more confident. I started to take on new challenges and facing other fears.

It’s been transformational.

I started this post with A.I. because as it decimates the job market and creative industry, I needed to find a profession to fall back on.

And I found it in the water.

Today I’m sharing with you my most recent achievement. I officially became a Swimming Teacher.

It is my second certification this year after becoming a pool Lifeguard.

I would like to thank to all my friends that supported me along the way because it wasn’t easy.

I would like to also thank those who questioned me and laughed me off when I said I will be teaching swimming.

You know who you are. You started a fire in my belly that won’t be extinguished for many years to come.

So my friends, hopefully this will inspire you, encourage or motivate you to face your own fears.

If you always wanted to learn to swim but are afraid of water, give me a call or text me.

I’m going to do the best I can to help you.

If you need private swimming lessons, let me know. I will be doing lots of trial classes soon to gain experience and build up a portfolio.

From now on you can expect me to talk about water safety and swimming a lot. As a matter of fact it is also going to be the topic of my next film.

Look out for more updates in the coming months.

You can also follow the whole journey in real time on my YouTube channel which I will link below.

Love ❤️
Alan

You are competitive, I get it.

But some of us swim for fun, relaxation, rehabilitation or exercise.

Don’t be a dick to those who are slower than you.
