How many of you swim on your own and have had success stories? Masters PB's or better, perhaps? What difficulties do you face on your own?
I have often heard people give the advice to join a team, stating that the friendly competition is good motivation. Is it possible to be motivated enough whilst training by yourself and really excel?

I wish I had a coach to yell at me when I was doing something wrong.
Although I am motivated and obsessive with swimming, I only have myself to gauge my status. I can't see how I'm doing from the outside the water. Maybe someday. While I have friends that swim they aren't "experts" or "coaches", they just give little tips to help.
