Just swim..

I’ve been doing a lot of swimming over the past 2 months. For the first month or so, I used to touch the water every time I pass the pool to the showers. “It’s too cold” – my mind would say. Nevertheless, I’d take the plunge and immediately start swimming.

And you know what happens next – the water would feel completely normal.

I still touch the water when I pass the pool (I’m sure I’ll get to removing that part of the process soon enough) but I’ve learnt to ignore the weather report. Just get under the shower, jump in, and swim.

We all get mental weather reports before we attempt something new. It’s always too hot/cold/uncomfortable. I guess it is not too different from getting into the water to swim.

Get in and just swim..
