Borrow These 6 Habits of the World’s Top Achievers
“In the icy water there’s no thinking, no emotions … just survival. It’s a feeling of freedom he can’t describe.”
At 2 am one morning she jumped off an 8-story building to her death.
Her four children and loving Dutch husband had no idea. He first met her at 20, and they loved each other so much. It was a forever kind of love.
After her tragic death he felt lost. Dark clouds took over. Evil thoughts entered his head. And he had four kids to explain it to and take care of.
One Sunday morning he wandered into a park alone.
His whole family still asleep at home. Many deep thoughts. So much grief. Suddenly he became attracted to a thin layer of ice on top of the water beneath. He finds an opening and jumps into the icy water.
It silences him. The voice of grief in his head turns off.
The ice-cold water makes him feel good. He can’t feel the cold. All he can feel is power. The next day he gets back in the icy water.
This becomes a habit.
A pattern starts to emerge…
Without the cold water he can’t escape his grief.
