QOTD:  Have you ever stepped back? 

Here is the Question of the Day:

Simone Biles stepped back from the U.S. gymnastics team competition after a shaky vault. She said, "I didn't want to go into any of the other events second-guessing myself. So I thought it would be better if I took a step back and let these girls go out there and do their job." She will not compete in the individual all-around gymnastics final, and still may participate in individual event finals. Have you ever stepped back from a personal goal because it was the better thing to do?
