Broad explained the attitude he has brought to his game.
"When I was a kid growing up I had sporting idols like Martin Johnson and Stuart Pearce. When I watched them, I loved their passion and drive," he said.
"I never looked at them and thought 'I could give more for that shirt'. So I've never wanted anyone in the crowd, or watching at home, or listening on the radio, to think 'he's not putting in, he's not giving absolutely everything'. I know I am not the most skilful player that's played. I know I need every inch of my competitive spirit and my drive and my effort to get anything out of my ability.
"But I would say every day I've pulled on a Nottinghamshire shirt or an England shirt, I've given my heart and soul. I can't think there'll be too many cricket fans out there who would think I've slacked off for a moment."
Broad revealed another reason why he came to the conclusion to retire.
"I've been home maybe seven or eight nights this summer. I feel like I haven't seen Mollie [his fiancé] and Annabella [his daughter] as much as I would like to at such a young age. I love everything about being a dad and will throw all my time and effort into being a great dad," he said.
