Today is Day 4 of the Daily Stoic New Year New You Challenge I am undertaking with Beth and Patton. I've shared the daily emails with Mom as well and she is along for the ride. We have watched the sunrise and sunset on Day One, taken a cold plunge (shower) on Day Two, and counted to 1000 in a quiet, isolated place on Day Three.
Today's challenge is to pick a new skill and add it to your game. Beth is learning to bake bread from scratch starting with sourdough. I'm going with learning to make great drip coffee, and learn about the different types of coffee beans.
Here's how Ryan Holiday ends today's email:
Today, we exhort you to hone in on your desire, whether that’s learning to code, learning a new language, learning to cook a new type of cuisine, or something else equally mind-expanding, and add it to your game. Because the 2020s promise to be a decade of incredible, vibrant change. Millions of people across the world are doing their part to change the world for the better. The least you can do is change yourself for the better along with it. Make the choice to become more capable, to be a person who can make the most of the opportunities the next ten years have in store, and you will reap the rewards.
