Easy

Build in Public Daily

In today's episode, I wanted to share my personal experience with doing cold plunges, specifically adding ice to the water. Although I often mention that I do it to challenge myself with difficult tasks, I must acknowledge that my life is incredibly easy. After the plunge, I retreat to the warmth of my house and take a hot shower, and it really puts things into perspective for me. It reminds me of how incredibly fortunate and blessed I am. The water today is about 35 degrees, and it made me reflect on the individuals who are currently fighting in wars or those who are refugees or slaves. They don't have the luxury of finding any relief, unlike myself. I'm fortunate to experience regular moments of relief and comfort. This realization fills me with a profound sense of gratitude. I appreciate having the ability to choose the kind of work I do, how I spend my time, and the activities I engage in every day. I have so much, and these small challenges, like cold plunges or exercising, are insignificant in comparison to the struggles others face. However, my deepest desire is to lead a life where I can power through difficult circumstances, no matter what they may be. I yearn to be guided by God and feel His unwavering support and strength as I confront these challenges. That's my true aspiration in life - to possess the capability to endure and conquer any trials and hardships that may come my way.
