The day when your swimming suddenly "clicked"?

Have you all had a day when you suddenly had a substantial breakthrough in learning to swim better? A day on which your swimming suddenly "clicked", so instead of trying hard to correct this or that detail of swimming better as you had been doing each day (how to kick, pull, breath, etc.), all of a sudden, you swam with all those details corrected, without effort, and without much thought about it. Months (and perhaps years) of thinking, practice, seem to be paying off altogether on that one day. I made some nice progress yesterday and today and feel great. My swim just suddenly became so much more relaxed and I was much more buoyant without effort. and breathing, which I had tried to improve, poses little problem now--and I wasn't even thinking about it. :D I hope the progress will stay with me and I won't forget how to swim the way I did. :cool: I'm still a beginner. I will be really interested to hear you story. :)
