The trade-offs.
I recently restarted learning swimming.
The class happens at 7 am in the morning, and it's a 30-minute drive. Which meant I had to wake up around 5.30 am. And sleep accordingly. Which also meant that I had to go through jet-lag-like symptoms for a couple of weeks.
And on top of it, it's monsoon in Goa. So, the scooter drive both ways is kind of tedious.
The only thing that keeps me going is... that it's completely worth it. That one hour in the pool with such wonderful, patient and kind teachers teaching me. Wow!
Everything we do has trade-offs. What gives you so much Wow! that you are willing to make them?
