Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins
5.0
This book put it into words struggles, feelings, excuses, and doubts that I have never before had the words for.
Goggins’ idea in the afterword will stick with me for a long time; when you sit in front of God before the gates of heavens, how would you feel if he showed you what life would have been like if you lived at the peak of your potential, but you hadn’t reached it?
I recognised something that has been bubbling inside me for a few weeks: the idea that I am living very far below my potential, that each day I am just getting by and not aspiring.
I have succeeded greatly academically. As of today I believe that chapter will close in just over two weeks, when my certificate of achievement is handed to me.
I will choose a next challenge, something new to overcome. And my body is my target.
