One more word of advice I will leave you with is something that I have already mentioned in this article, I cannot stress it enough. Never let anyone pressure you into doing something that you are not comfortable with. If you are not comfortable with deep water, then do not go into the deep water. Just because others may be doing it, does not mean that you have to. It is perfectly fine for you to start in the shallow and work your way out through out time, or just staying in the shallow period is also fine. If you go too deep into the water you will not be able to see anything, but water of course. Only you will know when your ready for advancement in anything that you choose to do.
