Aqui podemos ver a GIGANTESCA diferença entre um mindset de alta performance de quem vive nas trincheiras e os livros de auto-ajuda dizendo para você se sentir bem 100% do tempo e fazer o que deve ser feito apenas quando sentir-se bem. While I can relate with his relentless mindset, it is the constant recurrence of his self sabotage/self damage that is for the most part “avoidable” through overworking and lack of preparation for certain events. People who speak from real life experiences are the ones worth listening to, especially those who embody everything they preach.

At the end of the day it seems more of a subconscious default his brain goes to from all his childhood traumas and having a deep routed desire to be in the pain cave and somewhat punish himself through overwork and pushing his body to the utmost limits. David Goggins sophomore follow up to his outstanding autobiographical account, "Can't Hurt Me" is on par.

Another day burned when you didn’t make any progress toward your dreams, ambitions, and deepest desires.

The pain and fear that most dread is what he aspires to get through daily to test his mental resilience. When you drop your head, you are sending a direct message to your brain that you don't think you have what it takes to get better. In general, ‘Never Finished’ had plenty of stories of David and his personal life, the obstacles and how he overcame them with a number of pearls of wisdom. Though I’m continuously in awe of what this man has accomplished, along with his grit, determination, and energy… I thought this book fell a little flat. David Goggins is as he states “uncommon amongst the uncommon” and while a lot of self statements are a bit exaggerated, Id say he is painfully accurate on this.In terms of what he is advocating for and what he aims to inspire people to do, this book is another banger. David has purposefully and meticulously scrutinized every morbidly ugly aspect of our lives and of his life with raw, brutal, and oftentimes painful honesty.

An example would be, we know after the fact of his challenges in CHM, but in "Never Finished" we are running, (lets be real, ridding in a pace car) of what he is attempting all the while learning how he is able to calice his mind to overcome anything.We make decisions based on how we feel about certain people and we let that negativity guide our steps. Cultivating a willingness to succeed despite any and all circumstances is the most important variable of the reengagement equation. Your enemy rejoices in his exile because he thrives in barren isolation; that is the only way he has learned how to cope and survive. He’s a man who came from a humble and troubled childhood and, through the force of sheer will, forged himself into one of the hardest motherfuckers that’s ever lived.
