#1 I should have been a statistic
Challenge #1
Write down every injustice you have met in life
All the hate, all the trauma, all the unfair disadvantages.
Use them as nightmare fuel for your success. Use the anger.
#2 Truth hurts
The only way to ask yourself for change is humiliation and anger.
Change is hard. Work through it.
Challenge #2
Talk to yourself in the mirror, be fucking brutal
Only by being brutal in the mirror you can actually improve
Sugar-coating it won't fucking work, don't you try.
#3 The Impossible Challenge
You may be strong physically
But mental toughness is even more important.
Give yourself a real challenge and live with a mission
That will be the only time you will ever look back to with happiness
Challenge #3
Find specifically what are you bad at.
Do it every single day, because you hate it.
You only get stronger through discomfort.
#4 Taking souls
Taking souls is to crush someone's spirit.
To be driven, you must have people who's souls you strive to take.
And after you do, dig their souls into the ground. Keep going.
Challenge #4
Whatever competitive/social situation you're in
Take what is expected from you, what is set as the ideal
And do more than perfect.
Take their soul by achieving what they could never.
Push harder.
#5 Armored mind
Hard things make you mind stronger
To get through a hard thing, you can remember past harsh times.
Thats why doing the hard work when you dont feel like it is powerful
To get a bulletproof mind you need to find the source of all your fears
Challenge #5
Strategic visualisation is to visulise obstactles, success, and the hard journey
you want to put yourself in.
It is like a ritual that sets you in the right mood and framework to attack your
fears, weaknesses, and the day.
#6 It's not about a trophy
Its about proving and showing to yourself what you are capable of
"The cookie jar" is the total amount of your heart-warming victories that make you
feel awesome.
By remembering a past success, and remembering how good it felt, you might find
more strength to push on.
Pain might as well be the trophy, confirming that you have mastered your mind.
Challenge #6
Make a "cookie jar"
A multitude of accomplishments that were a big mind obstacle that you overcame
Every time some problem arises you can remember how much you already went through
And push hard AGAIN.
#7 The Most Powerful Weapon
Don't listen to the weak voice in your head.
He tells you to stop, you don't fucking budge
The 40% Rule is that the voice tell you to stop when you still have 60% of your
efforts unused.
You must destroy the governor, the weak voice. Shut him the fuck up.
Challenge #7
When the governor tell you to stop, keep going. Just 5-10%.
That is to push your mental governor away, to remove him from your brain.
Each time he comes back, you got your cookie jar of those 5-10% improvements.
You will be able to win the one-second decisions
#8 Talent not Required
Never have your focus shattered
Always keep looking for improvement in the midst of misery
When you are injured and otherwise can't continue your grind
Don't stop, keep stoic and look at what you still can do.
Challenge #8
Have three weeks to change your entire daily routine.
First week, you go about your daily life and write down all the ways you spend
time.
Second week, try and trim out some of the bullshit
Third week, to do what you failed at on the second week, to improve the schedule.
#9 Uncommon amongst uncommon
Great people tend to stop when they get comfortable on the heights of their
success.
That is normal, and don't force people to rise even higher.
But you yourself should never stop, even when satisfied. Always be hungry for more.
NEVER BE COMPLACENT!
Challenge #9
To be truly uncommon you must never stop and keep challenging yourself
Keep climbing the ladder of success
#10 The empowerment of failure
A failure is just a stepping stone to future success
After failure, fill in After Action Reports - Live Autopsies.
AAR must include tactics, thoughts, what went well, what went bad.
Get the most out of your failure. Learn from your mistake.
Turn those failures into something positive
Surround yourself with people that will turn your failures into gifts.
Dont let people get you complacent or let them cap your potential, and tell you
it's impossible.
Challenge #10
Bring out a heart-wrenching failure from your life
What went right?
What went wrong?
What can you fix?
When is the next time you can try?
Be brutally honest. Extract every single drop of wisdom from your failure
After Action Reports make up solid plans for future successes.
#11 What if?
Becoming so powerful as David Goggins comes with a drawback
You never stop to appreciate how far you've come
But it is still very well worth it.
The best thoughts you can have is the grateful, rewarding silence.
Be a friend to yourself, always have a productive inner dialogue.
What if? gives a way for you to ignore the impossibilities
Break the self-doubt, and shut up the doubters.
It gives you a ray of hope that you can get to.
Always go forward, with beast-like rage.
