15 Minutes of Discomfort — Standing Still in the Storm | average guy tested

Описание: A few days ago, I filmed a video called “15 Minutes of Peace.” Here’s a link to watch that video: 15 Minutes of Peace at the Beach (No Phone, No Noise) | average guy tested

This is the other side of that coin.

Today, during a blizzard at the Glen Head LIRR station, I stood still for 15 minutes — no shelter, no distractions — and chose discomfort instead of calm.

Snow.
Wind.
Cold.
Stillness.

As an out-of-service westbound NYC train passed through the station, I reflected on something we all face but rarely practice:
Learning how to sit in discomfort without running from it.

Shot in 4K using the iPhone 17 Pro Max dual-camera feature, this video captures two perspectives at once:
One camera locked on me, standing present in the storm
The other watching the world move past — including the train heading west

During these 15 minutes, I focused on:
• Gratitude during hard moments
• Growth that only comes from discomfort
• Blessings that don’t disappear when things get uncomfortable
• Family, friends, and perspective
• Learning not to escape the storm, but stand inside it

This isn’t about toughness.
It’s about awareness.

Peace teaches you how to breathe.
Discomfort teaches you who you are.

If the first video helped you slow down, this one is about learning how to stay put — even when everything in you wants to move.
