These are the 3 most impactful lessons I’ve learned:

Regardless of the obstacle you face, you can overcome and grow from it.If you’ve been given a bad hand in life, look for the advantages it gives you. All of the difficulties and pain you experience make you stronger. Challenges in life are like weight-lifting. The more we lift and overcome, the stronger we will be

Lesson 1: 

If you want to get to the next level, work hard and persevere through your limits.We need to realize when things get the hardest is when we have the chance to callous our minds and push past our limits.

Lesson 2 :

Stop using 40% of your effort and give life 100%.It may sound crazy, but as humans, we tend to give up after giving only 40% of our maximum power.

Lesson 3:

"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.
