From Controlling Your Dopamine For Motivation, Focus & Satisfaction
TACTIC 02
Cold Water Is the Cheapest Sustained High You Can Get
THE PLAY
End your morning shower with 30 to 60 seconds of cold water. Breathe slowly through it, do not hyperventilate. Work up to two to three minutes at under 60°F over the next month. Do it in the morning, not the evening — the alertness lasts longer than you want it to if you time it wrong.
