I love the topic of mental toughness and have always studied things related. I caught wind of David Goggins from Jesse Itzler in his book Living with a SEAL (which is amazing, you should buy it here >> https://amzn.to/2D6V0Uf or to listen here >> https://adbl.co/2pIlLeJ) Focus on the mental to take you through the physical  #mental #toughness #mind #discipline #entreprenuer #focus #inspiration #motivation #work #growth #resistance

1. "We were
training bigger,
faster, stronger
quitters."

2. That is a line from David
Goggins during an
interview with Lewis
Howes.

3. He talked about being a
Navy SEAL and then
eventually being
responsible for pre-
SEAL training to get
them ready and
prepared for BUD/S.

4. They focused on the
physical and turned
them into “hybrids” —
just absolute machines.

5. But when they got to
BUD/S — the same
amount of people didn’t
make it through.

6. That’s when he realized
they were training
bigger, faster, stronger
quitters.

7. He said he had to go
into their “mental
dungeon” to build
mental toughness.

8. The problem was that when
something hard happened
to these kids or when they
were in the middle of hell
week, the negative mental
stimulus would get
triggered and they’d look
for comfort and quit.

9. What makes a SEAL isn’t
physical ability. It’s mental.
That’s what gets you
through.

10. Takeaway?
Do everything you can to
strengthen your mind.
That's what will carry you
through.
