David Goggins- Former Athlete (What set him apart)
- “If you choose to do something, attack it. You can hate me, but there’s one thing you can’t say about me – that I didn’t attack it.”- David Goggins
- “I’m a big believer in doing things that make you feel uncomfortable. So, we live in a world where we want to be as comfortable as we can. And we wonder why we have no growth.

David Goggins- Former Athlete (Final Thoughts)
- “Mental toughness is a lifestyle. It’s something that you live every single day of your life. When I was growing up, I was a lazy kid, and everybody goes, ‘How did you get to where you’re at today? How did you get to where you’re at running 200 miles at one time in 39 hours? Being so disciplined?’”- David Goggins
