Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins

inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

I had come across David Goggins through years of internet scrolling. People seemed to mention him, and I vaguely knew about some of his extreme athleticism and absurd mentality, but never paid close attention. After watching a video of an guy nonsensically injure himself by running with little training, I thought I would try listening to his book to see what he was really preaching. He indeed has an incredible life story that is difficult not to be inspired by. His military journey and stories are a fascinating look into a different world. He definitely unlocked a warrior mentality that I identify as mostly insane yet completely rational. It helps him fight through the hardest physical challenges that can be imagined. His work ethic and dedication over decades are not seen with the clickbait, sound bites online but he absolutely has gained credibility in my eyes.
