Another update of my newfound discipline and mental toughness…
Cold Showers
While at home with my family I’ve been doing cold showers every morning. This may not seem significant, but doing cold showers in December in New England is no joke. Especially coming from the tropical climate where I live now, where just being in frigid New England during December can be challenging enough as I’m no longer climatized to cold weather.
Today, I stood under the coldest possible setting of the shower for well over a minute and managed to relax myself completely and almost felt “numb” to the effects of the cold. The mental toughness of Spartan is certainly blooming right now and I couldn’t be more proud of myself for sticking with this habit, especially when I would’ve had every excuse in the book to wimp out.
