America leads the world in medicine development. It matters. We get new medicines first, nearly three years faster. Five million Americans go to work because we make medicines here at home, and not relying on other countries keeps us safe. But China is racing to overtake us. Will we let them? Or will we choose to stay ahead? When America leads, America cures. Let's tell Washington to keep us in the lead. Learn how at americancures.com. Pay for by Farma. I didn't teach myself victory first. I taught myself how to fail. When you're 300 pounds and

you can't read and write and you're fucked up, many times you're going to fail on that process. So if you don't know how to fail, there is no victory. Most of this generation quits the second they get talked to. You did this wrong or they get yelled at. It's so easy to be great nowadays because everybody else is most people are weak. This is soft in generation. So if you have any mental toughness, any ability, any fraction of self discipline, the ability to not want to do it but still do it. Fuck your motivation. Fuck your motivation. You need discipline because motivation is not there every day. I'm missing motivation most days. Sometimes I've got motivation. Sometimes I'm like, fuck yeah, today I feel good. I can't wait to get to the gym. A lot of days like going to the gym. And then once I get going, then I feel great. I feel great when it's over. But it's that beginning part that's hard because your body wants to stay comfortable.

Your body to trick you. Like, man, today should take the day off. Yeah, feel good. Theo, what did you get like six hour sleep last night? That's not enough. People have a hard thing to understand. I hate to run. And it makes me so crazy. It doesn't need more. You go, well, why do you run if you hate it? What are you talking about? If you can get through to doing things that you hate to do on the other side is greatness. That's what people understand. By me running, I am callous in my mind. I'm not training for a race. I'm training for life. I'm training my mind and my body, my spirit. So it's all one. So I can handle what life is going to throw at me because the life I've lived at those a whole bunch at you. And if you're not physically immensely prepared for that, you're just going to crumble and you're good for nobody. Most people don't want to go to that extra mile. Most people don't want to find that extra because it sucks. It's miserable. It's lonely. It's easy to give up. Really easy. It's the easiest

thing in the world to do. I'm done. I ain't gone. I ain't going to keep going. I'm full. I going to work the one. Yeah, man. It's easy. It's very easy. But what's hard is going, you know, yesterday I got nothing from working as hard as I could. Nothing happened from that. I'm going to do the same thing again today, but I'm going to try to go harder. That's the hardest thing in the world. To get up every day and give 100% and be in the same position that you were each day, but mentally know that you're trying and trying and trying. That's that's a real. That's a real grind. Tighten up people. It's okay. What are you going to do now? They don't own your life. All these insecure people put in their insecurities on you. You got to flush it out. You got to just be whoever the hell God or whoever the hell you believe in. If you believe in nothing but yourself, I don't care what it is. You got to take everything and throw it away. You have to believe in one thing and that is yourself. Right now for you to find greatness in yourself, you're not going to

find it by looking in a book or by even hearing me. I may give you the spark, but you've got to go inside yourself to find it. And that means you gotta be quiet. Shut the fuck up. Go on a room. Stop talking. Search your soul. Search your mind. Search your abilities. And you'll find it. How bad do you want this? If this is bad as you want to live or breathe or sleep, whatever hell it may be, I can work with you. But a lot of people, most people don't want it that badly, which is why they always ask the question, how do you get to where you are? You know how to do it? You know exactly how to be you or how to be me. You don't want to do it. Like let me see, I want to see what you do when you're tired. Let me see how you push yourself. Come on man. Get up. Get up again tomorrow. Get up again tomorrow. Get up again tomorrow. The next day. Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up. Keep going. How long can you maintain a positive attitude? There's no hacks, bro. It's you against you. You against you. And if you misunderstand that,

give a real problem. I'm just starting out in life. I don't know where I'm going, what I'm doing. How are you? 26. And you don't know where I'm going, what I'm doing, and I'm not disciplined. So how the fuck am I supposed to help you? How many times do you have to hear if nothing changes, nothing changes? I can't. You can't. Are you fucking kidding me? You just said, I can't. No, you can't. You will. Because yeah, nothing changes and nothing changes, man. Everything's going to go south on you. Everything's going to go south and you're going to say, this is it. This is how I am. Now you can either accept that or you can get to work. That's all it is. You just begin. There's a quote that I've fallen in love with. The magic you are looking for is in the work you're avoiding. The magic you are looking for

is in the work you're avoiding. I don't want to live in a hole anymore. It makes me feel poor. We are poor, but we're happy. Come see, come south. Anyway, the views are better above ground. Honey, I'm seven non-fox years old now. My father died at seven and a half. I don't want to live in a hole anymore. And I'm going to do something about it. Nothing is going to change. Unless you change what you're doing. Change the junk food that you're eating. Change the time that you wake up. Change what you do when you get out of bed. Change what you do with your time. That's what you need to do. You have to change some things or nothing will change. You're lazy. You know exactly what to do. It just sucks doing it. Everybody's looking for mental toughness. Every athlete, everybody in the world is looking for mental toughness.

The only way you gain mental toughness is to do things you're not happy doing. If you continue doing things that you're satisfied and to make you happy, you're not getting stronger. You're staying where you're at. Either you're getting better, you're getting worse. You're not staying the same. So what are you doing today? Doing the same thing I was doing last year and last month and last week. I'm continuing to look in the mirror, look at the reflection. It's called the accountability What have I done today to improve David Goggins? Hard times create hard men, hard men create soft times, soft times create soft men, soft men create hard times. We are now around soft men and hard times. There's a moment when every boy realizes no one's coming to save him and that's when he becomes a man and some boys never get there and stay children forever. You should be a monster. He said you should be a monster. You should be ruthlessly ambitious and then learn how to control it. And it's that old expression. It's better to be a warrior

in a garden, a gardener in a war. Okay, how good you are on anything. You don't have this one. You ain't nobody. Right. Nothing about discipline. Because you give up on the slightest struggle without discipline. 100%. Tell me discipline and do what you hate to do, but do it like you love it. That's that is a great quote. Most of the reason that we're afraid to fail is because we're afraid of dying in an abstract reality. We think, oh, we catastrophize. Okay, I'll lose my job and then know it'll like me. And then I won't be able to get the job again. And then I'll be homeless and then I'll die. That's how we go, right? But when I thought through, I was like, what would actually happen? So if I went there and I failed, what would I do? What would I do? When I thought through, I was like, what would actually happen? So if I went there and I failed, what would I do? I was like, well, I had applied to business school. And I'd have this school story and they like entrepreneurs or people who tried to do things. So this would actually, this would be fine. This would be okay. And I have plenty of friends who would let me sleep on the couch if I had to. I could go back to mom and dad's house with my tail between my legs, which I

thought was was that was honestly the most horrifying thing that I could imagine going back on this failure. Yes. But the idea, the one that got me out of it was, I can always get the job back. So like, this is actually a significantly lower risk move than I'm perceiving it to be. I can get the job back or I can get another job that's comparable. I have the experience and me doing all this stuff only makes me more viable because I'll have a cooler story than somebody who just did four years of this job rather than two and then did two years of things. And so that was actually, that was the one argument. The secondary argument was, for me, I was young at the time. I was like, this is extremely hard to do. If you sex, I used to always tell people like, yeah, I'd like to own my own business someday. It's almost like you tag it on to like, what's your, what do you do now? And I'd like to, and so I thought to myself, if it's this hard now, when I have no kids, I have no wife, I have those stakes. It's going to be nearly possible for me to do like, and so it's like I have to do it now.
