It took me much longer than the video above (4 minutes!) to complete the entire Path of Pain challenge. The use of the word ‘should’ when presenting a challenge is the fastest way to kill the desire to do it.įirst thing I learned: if a challenge is optional, I will only attempt it if I want to. Where I should stretch myself because it’s going to make me ‘better’.

It seems simple, but there are so many areas of my life where I tell myself I should attempt a challenge. In other words, I’m motivated for ‘extracurricular’ stuff by wanting to do it. But since I loved the game so much at that point, I decided: why not see if I can do this.Īnd that’s the first thing I learned: if a challenge is optional, I will only attempt it if I want to. The comments may give you a better idea of what a feat this is. Here you can see it completed in under 4 minutes.
