There were homework assignments, test scores that were vital to your grades, or that game that you just had to win no matter how much effort was involved. You possessed that desire to win, to accomplish something; and you knew you couldn't succeed if you acted like a nut. You had so many pressures laid on you that acting like a nut just wouldn't work. Friends needed you for your companionship, teammates and club members depended upon your actions, and you had your parents to satisfy. The attainments you so steadily strove for didn't come easily.
