Caeleb Dressel takes no bull.

I am responsible for setting my own standard and not comparing myself to the standard of someone else. Each day is a new opportunity to be a better person than I was yesterday and to stay committed and obsessed with my craft. I am defined by my habits and I strive to make those habits lead down the path to success. I may not see results immediately but if I keep dropping pennies in the bank it will pay off. #IAMNOBULL @nobullproject
