Long Showers for the win

I take 45 minute showers. I get most of my life and business insights in the shower. I have researched it and there is no conclusion why this is.

Other successful businessmen have said the same thing about the shower and how it brings ideas and insight. I will take a stab at developing a theory:

Nerve endings. When each and every water drop hits my skin I think that it fires a nerve to register the feeling. When there are more nerves being fired, it speeds up brain activity, when brain activity is sped up it leads to a new pathways being formed which lead to more insight.

I take long showers for this purpose only. Yea I get clean but when I can get 45mins away from not thinking about an alert on my phone or somebody trying to talk to me it feels so refreshing. Long showers are a mini vacation for me.

Let’s get 1% better everyday.
