On the otherside of Suffering, is Greatness! How are you doing, 5 Months later?

@@aphysique Now im 278. I couldnt keep up the motivation and energy. Slid back into a depression. However I just read the book again last week and this time I've taken it a little more literally and have actually followed some of his challenges. Ive actually set up my accountability mirror. I didnt realize how important that is. I have this book propped up on my dresser and its the first thing i see when I wake up. Im pushing myself and trying to actually do the things he has laid out for us in the book. Check back in a few months lol.

@@JBrooksNYS On the otherside of suffering is Greatness, .....Stay hard!!

Can you tell me a little more, how did it help you. Why did find it so good ?

@@SamirMishra6174 it's honest and straight to the point, it doesn't filter anything. The story of Goggins' life had a very rough start, with several events that could have broken down anyone, and it did affect him immensly during his youth. At some point, he realised that he had used his terrible past as an excuse to continue on with his miserable lifestyle of mediocrity. "it's okay, I had a rough past. that's my excuse for why I'm not any better." Sooner or later, Goggins took himself accountable for his mistakes and knew that his current life had to change if he wanted to feel better. As the video mentioned, he used to drink chocolate milkshakes and eat donuts after his work shift to ease his pain, but after a terrible day at work, he knew that he didn't want to continue on with his current life. Eventually, when he came home, he saw a TV-program of Navy SEALS soldiers in training, and Goggins was impressed and inspired by them, and knew that he could have a hidden potential inside him to be amongst like those in the Navy SEALS. As for someone who has read and listened to a handfull of self-help books, I realised that I knew what I should do to improve myself. But I couldn't manage myself to do it properly or with any consistency. Maybe because I was still looking for easy answers or shortcuts, or just waiting for the 'right moment'. But David Goggins and his life story just said what needed to be said; there are no easy answers. How can you become better by taking shortcuts or just be as mediocre as everyone else? To become a rough f*cker, you need to make yourself hard by embracing whatever is uncomfortable. You got two voices in your head: one voice that wants you to stay in your current and comfortable situation: "I just want to watch Netflix all day and eat chips", and another voice that wants you to do what could improve your current situation, but is uncomfortable and unknown: "I should finish my assignment", "I should find a better job", "I have to lose weight" etc. To summarize his book with a proverb: "The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now."

Meh.. Overhyped imo

Liverpool67890 read the book and then listen to the audiobook and you’ll see there is some stuff you miss out on. You must know this though, you must be a SEAL. Or have done something relevant to share with the rest of the internet. My best guess is probably not.
