David Goggins Quotes

    “Your life is not f*cked up because of overt racists or hidden systemic racism.  You aren’t missing out on opportunities, making sh*t money, and getting evicted because of America or Donald f*cking Trump or because your ancestors were slaves or because some people hate immigrants or Jews or harass women or believe gay people are going to hell.  If any of that sh*t is stopping you from excelling in life, I’ve got some news.  You are stopping you!” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me

      “Human beings change through study, habit, and stories.  Through my story you will learn what the body and mind are capable of when they’re driven to maximum capacity, and how to get there.  Because when you’re driven, whatever is in front of you, whether it’s racism, sexism, injuries, divorce, depression, obesity, tragedy, or poverty, becomes fuel for your metamorphosis.” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me

        “From the time you take your first breath, you become eligible to die.  You also become eligible to find your greatness and become the One Warrior.  But it is up to you to equip yourself for the battle ahead.  Only you can master your mind, which is what it takes to live a bold life filled with accomplishments most people consider beyond their capability.” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me

          “Very few people know how the bottom feels, but I do.  It’s like quicksand.  It grabs you, sucks you under, and won’t let go.  When life is like that it’s easy to drift and continue to make the same comfortable choices that are killing you, over and over again.  But the truth is we all make habitual, self-limiting choices.  It’s as natural as a sunset and as fundamental as gravity.  It’s how our brains are wired, which is why motivation is crap.  Even the best pep talk or self-help hack is nothing but a temporary fix.  It won’t rewire your brain.  It won’t amplify your voice or uplift your life.  Motivation changes exactly nobody.  The bad hand that was my life was mine, and mine alone to fix.” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me
