Can't Hurt Me
David Goggins, 2018
A 297-pound exterminator became a Navy SEAL, then an ultrarunner. Goggins explains how he kept going when his body said stop.
Goggins is the only person to have completed Navy SEAL training, Army Ranger School, and Air Force tactical air controller training.
Feels like defiance, adventure and awe.
The voice telling you to quit gets loudest just before it goes quiet.
At first, when you push beyond your perceived capability your mind won’t shut the fuck up about it. It wants you to stop so it sends you into a spin cycle of panic and doubt, which only amplifies your self-torture. But when you persist past that to the point that pain fully saturates the mind, you become single-pointed. The external world zeroes out. Boundaries dissolve and you feel connected to yourself, and to all things, in the depth of your soul. David Goggins, 2018
