"For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare. Poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a U.S. Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events, inspiring Outside magazine to name him 'The Fittest (Real) Man in America.'. In Can't Hurt Me, he shares his astonishing life story and reveals that most of us tap into only 40% of our capabilities. Goggins calls this The 40% Rule, and his story illuminates a path that anyone can follow to push past pain, demolish fear, and reach their full potential"--Publisher's description.

Don't follow this guy advice, you'll get badly injured, divorced and even possible dead.
While Goggins does not always seem to plan everything and think things through in advance, his dedication and brute force is admirable and immensely inspirational. Don't let your pain restrict your mind from dreaming and attaining the unimaginable!
DG is the embodiment of the potential we all have to use our will to go through discomfort to levels we never knew were possible. I wouldn't want to be this man but he has inspired me to question my own perceived limits. Recommend this book
8.8/10
Has earned a place as one of my canon books. Will be rereading again soon with notes.
