For 4-time Olympic medalist TomDaley1994, writing his memoir was like 'finally taking a breath and looking back on what I've done [in life].'
."Coming Up For Air" organizes the journey into chapters with titles like"Perseverance,""Courage," and"Acceptance" — qualities that Daley has developed throughout his life and career.
"Perspective" got its own chapter, but even more than that, it was a theme that ran throughout the book. As he matured, Daley found that the fuller his life was outside of diving, the better he performed on the platform and the happier he felt all around. Athletes, he explains, are often tempted to prioritize their sport above everything in the pursuit of success:"No rest, no distractions, no nothing," Daley says.
