This is like the evil twin version of feeling proud of yourself in a traditionally wholesome way. Iโm talking about doing something hard so that afterward you can walk around feeling better than everyone else. Itโs fun to hate on those types of people, but occasionally itโs fun to be them.
The type of challenge isn't really important. We could be talking about writing an email or climbing a literal mountain. What matters is that it doesnโt come easy.
One time I went to a 5:30 AM workout class and I was high on my own supply for the rest of the day.
