It\u2019s been a year now since I plunged into the Pacific at Rockaway Beach, but I still find myself thinking about and learning from my journey on an almost daily basis. I\u2019ve spent a good chunk of the past year working through everything that happened to me on my walk, and I think the major lessons remain unchanged since I briefly summed them up last August. But I have a lot more to say about them now that they\u2019ve been simmering in my brain for a full twelve months. So if you like lengthy, detailed elaborations, then you\u2019re going to love\u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t want to spoil the amazing post that is this extended version this guy&#8217;s trip written exactly one year after finishing it. A word of advice, it is 8,101 words and took me 1 hour to read on the treadmill yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>If you read only one thing this week, make this it. However, once your&#8217;e done, don&#8217;t think you get it because you\u00a0actually\u00a0don&#8217;t. Reading this is like reading something written by a genius about their experience. To read it is to put yourself in their shoes for a few moments. Don&#8217;t do that. Read it and then forge your own path. There are too many parts of this post that I want to paste here as the &#8220;best bits&#8221; but every bit of this post is exceptional.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the best thing I&#8217;ve read all year.
