We review the book Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins. This week we discuss the themes in Chapter 9, Uncommon Amongst the Uncommon. These themes include a relentless pursuit for inner greatness, not settling for mediocrity, always looking for ways to grow and the importance of leaders building their teammates up to be their best.

Quote of the day from this chapter is, "If you're not getting better, you're getting worse".

Chapter 8 review of David Goggins' book Can't Hurt Me. This chapter is so great because it talks about the one thing that I see hindering most people in their pursuit of their goals...wasting time!

This chapter of the book discusses your personal governor, perceived limits, dissecting the quitting mind and understanding Goggins' Law of Nature. These strategies will help you tap into your inner greatness.

We are reviewing Chapter 6 of the book Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins. This chapter has us looking at all the achievements and struggles we have overcome in our life to use them as fuel to move forward.

I have been struggling with these feelings and talk to women every day who struggle with insecurities, self doubt and many other uncomfortable feelings. Keep your head up and keep moving forward!!

We are reviewing David Goggins book "Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy The Odds". This chapter goes through what David Goggins defines as the "Impossible Task". The themes of this chapter include disappointment, FEAR, passive living, crossroads, hope and living with passion. David takes us on a wild ride as he shares his experience of once again "defying the odds" and losing over a 100lbs in 3 months and studying day in and day out to have an opportunity to become a Navy Seal. He knows that only "one-third of the men who begin BUD/S make it through Hell Week" but he states, "It was about who I was and who I wanted to be. I was a prisoner in my mind and this opportunity was my only chance to break free". Join me in this review as we reflect Chapter 3 and dive into his Challenge #3 to get comfortable with discomfort.

We are doing a book club on David Goggins book Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds.
