Why I'd hand it to you

David Goggins grew up with abuse, poverty and racism, and as a young man he was overweight and stuck. He went on to become a Navy SEAL, an Army Ranger and an ultra-endurance athlete. He shares the mental tools he used, like the idea that when you think you are done, you have barely started. The tone is raw and intense. Be aware of what you are getting: lots of profanity, and an all-or-nothing approach that sometimes treats injury and pain as things to ignore. That isn't healthy for everyone. Take the grit, but keep your own judgment about your body and your family.

— Matt Jordan
