    The document discusses the importance of coaching and mentoring, using the example of a coach rescuing her swimmer who lost consciousness during a competition. The coach recognized when the swimmer was under water longer than normal, had the desire and ability to help, and dove in while others were still watching, saving the swimmer's life. The document argues that many young leaders are "drowning" and need mentors, and that both mentors and mentees should seek each other out to prevent more from suffering.

    "THE IMPORTANCE OF COACHING

    USA's Anita Alvarez sank slowly to the bottom of the pool at the world championships in Budapest
    on Wednesday.
    Her coach, Andrea Fuentes, scanned the pool deck and made a split-second decision: She dove in to
    save her.
    This image reminds me of the importance of coaching and mentoring.
    This coach had the ability to recognize when Anita was under longer than she normally is.
    This coach had the desire to help.
    This coach had the ability to help.

    This coach acted while others were still watching on the sideline.
    We have way too many young leaders drowning right now especially in the church. I’ve personally
    watched as many friends have walked away and unfortunately a couple even taking their own lives
    due to the pressure that comes from navigating church leadership.
    Every Paul needs a Timothy and every Timothy needs a Paul.
    If you’re a young person that doesn’t have a mentor, find one. Now.
    If you’re a seasoned vet and don’t have a mentee, find one. Now.
    When one of us drowns, we all suffer."

    American Olympic synchronized swimmer Anita Alvarez suddenly lost consciousness and sank to
    the bottom of the pool during a routine.
    Her coach jumped in, and with the help of another swimmer, pulled Alvarez to the surface.
