For about 2 years (after getting evicted from the White House), I was living with my girlfriend (now wife) in a small efficiency in Richmond Heights. There was mold on the walls, roaches, we shared the kitchen and bathroom with an old woman who spoke no English, it was just a little room. But the fact that it was only $300 a month made us acclimate ourselves.
The last 6 months that we lived there, the hot water heater was "broken". At first, I was quite upset with the landlord. But after a week of taking only cold showers, I noticed a change in my emotions. I didn't feel depressed, I was full of energy and joy. I began to really appreciate the jolt of my nightly cold shower. Taking a shower became a fun experience. I even began to sleep better.
A month or so later, I went to Orlando to visit family. I started telling them about these cold shower epiphanies. "That's really strange," said my brother Nick. It turns out that our multi-millionaire cousin Brian, who owns two very successful restaurants in Orlando had no hot water in his mansion!
Brian (whose net worth is $3.5 million) explained that he also takes cold showers because they are quick and he doesn't have time for a long shower, because he is so busy. Also, it helps his mind stay alert and focused on making money. This was great for me to hear.
Pastor Clean says, "Take cold showers every day!" Hallelujah!
