Here is how I started waking up early everyday: 1. Removed my phone from my bedroom: I found my phone distracting before going to bed and after I woke up. I would spend 45 minutes needlessly scrolling. 2. Placed an alarm outside my bedroom: This forces me to physically get up to go turn it off. By the time I do that I'm already awake and it's hard to go back to sleep. 3. Immediately Start Purposeful Work: Within 30 minutes of getting up I start working on a purposeful project. I enjoy the work I do so it makes it super easy to get started.
This is how I started waking up early. 1 go to sleep 8-7hrs before you wanna wake up. 2 wake up. 3 done 4 dont be an idiot, you have human instincts that will wake you up after you slept enough. Simple as that
I have been waking up at 5 since the start of the year and what helped me was alarmy(you can set challenges in it), I wake up -> it asks me to type 2 sentences and I gain some consciousness and then it asks me to do 10 squats and after doing them I have the energy to go to the bathroom, wash my face and go on with my day. Best for someone like me who used to struggle with waking up early.
I think what you could do what really helps me getting up is instantly going to the bathroom letting the shower get cold and taking a cold shower. But for building willpower its very important to instantly go into the cold water and not waiting in front of the shower and preparing yourself mentally. Also other benefits are that you will feel way happier in the morning after the shower because cold exposure especially in water (ice baths are better than cold showers) lets the dopamine rise up by 2.5 or 250% (that's as high as you can get with cocaine) and it drops down to normal very slow
I live by myself. I'm 70 this year. I had a childhood without parents. I get up early every morning. I still go to work 5 days a week. I do the gym 3-4 days a week and go hiking as often as possible. I'm happy and healthy
Because you're doing other things for yourself....as you should. Nothing wrong with breaks and relaxing and choosing the simpler path sometimes. No reason to always be so intense

In 2019 I was obese, depressed, had no job and an overall failure. Guys like this inspired me to be better and here I am significantly healthier and just got hired as a firefighter. Anything is possible if you put in the work and want it badly enough

''its so easy to be great nowadays because most people are weak'' his motivation seems like a genius shortcut. it may also seem rude but its actually humbling
I’ve been struggling to find my purpose and I needed to hear this. I was already having a shitty morning and the woman at the register was genuinely sweet to everyone. Her smile gave me hope. Yes her purpose was to take my money and feed it to the register, but that smile said it’s gonna be alright. Amazing how a simple gesture does so much.
@@MFV77 I think it is interesting how some people look out onto life and at others. What we see through our own "colored glasses" is exactly what life becomes for us. We reap what we sow.
@@doctorartphd6463 You're right about one thing. How we look at life & others does affect what we see. You saw through the lens of cynicism, presumed to know better than the person who actually had the experience, & attempted to spread your negative beliefs. The OP recognized when they were in the presence of genuine sweetness (I've been a cashier---people can tell!), appreciated it, and shared it with others who appreciated it too (52 likes to date). I know which harvest I'd rather reap! 🌈🌱🌿🤓💐🍀💖
I've made videos about this myself but Goggins expresses it far better than I ever could... sleep experts will disagree with me here but my personal experience is: if I sleep from 10PM - 5AM, I feel FAR more motivated than if I sleep 10PM - 5AM then snooze til 7AM... just being awake and getting stuff early while it's still dark out feels godly... even if the second half of my day ends up more 'relaxation mode', its worth the sacrifice of feeling a bit sh*t and cold for about 2 minutes... They say "if you lose an hour in the morning, you'll spend the rest of the day trying to find it." I couldn't agree more!
We need more positivity like these men speak. Aged 66 I still knock out running 7 miles in an hour. Used to be 10 mph. Never ever give up!!! Dont be a victim!! One life.
"Cause one day that thing is going to come up, and if your not constantly performing out purpose your not going to be ready when that time comes". Damn I felt that
It's crazy how many stories are there in this comment section, you guys are so inspirational. I just wanna say thank you to all of you who have shared your story here, you never know who you can inspire and motivate. Probably you're not like Goggins, frankly, no one is, but you're an inspiration. Keep it up and stay hard
I just watched this hating myself laying on my bed and drinking beer. Then got inspired to go on a run. But it was raining and my only shoes were soaked. Without thinking twice I got up, chugged my beer, and ran in the rain barefoot. I would have normally looked at people's reactions to me barefoot but remembered I AM THE PURPOSE and it is for ME! I felt empowered doing it all for myself as those people went by me. I feel a million times better. Thank you for the motivation
So true; did a BA and ended up not liking the field, the earnings etc. Going to college again in a total different field, older, working full time +54 hours a week, and trying to squish gym. Working up 5 am and arriving home around 23:00h. I really want to go through the struggle and "fear" of changing everything? Not having so many time to be with me girlfriend, may not finding a job in the new field, or not even liking it too or something. But staying is so hurtful too, I NEED to do something!
This is honestly beautiful. I'm a woman and can't tell you how much Goggins has inspired me and made me feel better about myself while helping me find my own drive! He teaches us that we're only in competition with ourselves!!! There's so much pressure we put on ourselves by comparing ourselves to others and Goggins reminds us to only compare ourselves to OURSELVES. Thank-you so much, Goggins! STAY HARD EVERYONE ❤
finding you and finding these videos has made me want to turn my life around. i am about 4 months clean off abusing pills and i have kind of just been lost since becoming sober, now i want to wake up and actually improve myself every day instead of just sitting on the couch as you say. dont be ashamed of your past actions, take your mistakes and learn from them and become a better man.
18 days sober from porn. I've tried and failed to maintain an abstinence streak 3 times this year, currently on my fourth attempt. I won't give up until I'm free from it forever.
You can do this and finally be able to have a life free from a ridiculous addiction that leaves you feeling empty and numb. You deserve a real relationship with a loving caring partner.
Last time I was listening religiously to this dude was two years ago and I have reached my biggest goal in life because of him. I'm back again because I'm moving to my dream country next week and need to face my fears. He never disappoints.
im with him , i live alone so theres nobody around to motivate me or keep me in check . after a while you realize it really is all on you to better yourself and there is no shortcut to greatness of any kind , but you can achieve it no matter who you are or what your situation , just get after it , do what you can , and then do more , strangely enough things will begin to fall into place and the more they do the easier it will get for you to achieve more if you continue to improve yourself because you will be getting stronger and smarter which leads to more progress . its a viscious cycle . im up to 5 miles a day now plus other exercises aside from my daily tasks , job , school etc. and its all leading to more because im able to handle more . im not special by any means i just made a decision one day to start and not stop . if your reading this you can achieve greatness , just go for it and dont let anybody stop you or tell you you cant , especially yourself . excuses are easy , life is hard , so stay hard 💪
I was addicted to food. For the first time in my life I’m cutting down and not giving in to every craving in an effort to respect myself and rewire my brain. I use food because I’m struggling with my goals but now I’m facing it. I write everyday, I gym everyday , I’m literally being the person I want to be even though it’s hard and I don’t want to and I want to sleep and eat mostly. We have to choose our hard. Do I want to be lazy and not level up and be ‘comfortable’ or do I want to maintain my beautiful body eat well write as it’s my passion…. I don’t want to be all those things , I am those things. Keep going guys, it’s not easy but you know what it’s better than being on the ‘comfort’ cushion that offers no real comfort whatsoever man. ❤
This year so far I've been getting up and sticking to my routine because I want to change and I want to be a better version of myself physically, mentally, and spiritually and David Goggins helps me alot by motivating me by what he says! He is a true badass warrior
I started to workout since January this year and eat healthy. Today we are June, after months of consistency I lost weight and gain muscles. I’m proud of myself and what I have achieved in a short period of time.
I developed a method for getting up early and its served me very well. I started by setting myself a soft goal, like just get up before 7:30am. I did this and then when I did was I recorded this time in a file on my phone, then the next day I set a goal that was just to beat this time, it could be even 7:29am. When I did that I kept going until I got to 5:30am. I rarely want to be up before 5:30 so I'll get up between 5:30am and 6:30am. I started this over a year ago and by now its ingrained in me. What kept me going at the start was that I made a game out of it, i was always trying to beat my previous time and when its like this it becomes fun.
That's great I just don't find it necessary. If someone gets up at 05:30am, 07:00am, 08:00am, or even 09:00am that's up to their individual biology. Every person is different. Some people are better at getting up at 4:00am and others it wrecks them. There is no One Size Fits All standard on physical and mental health. Someone else's challenge might be to sleep an hour later than the normal time they get up, for example, and they feel better when finally accomplishing that. What drives me nuts about these motivational vids on UA-cam is they keep pushing for a singular answer. There is no singular answer. Each person and their circumstance may be different.
@@damienholland8103 Im yet to meet someone who feels better getting up at 10am except for because of the fact its more comfortable or they have nothing to do.
@@callanc3925 That's cool but different bodies have different needs regardless. The point still stands. I know I guy who is in his 90s that only needs 4 hours of sleep. But if you are not genetically built for that 4 hours can hurt you. Has nothing to do with willpower it's all about understanding your individual biology and accommodating to it. Same goes with diet. Same with exercise.
@@friedkin71 been training for 5+ years now, and honestly no, when i drag myself up to train after a hard day at work i usually cut the training extra short and get really tired afterwards, skipping a day in the gym is not something that should be frowned upon, aslong as your not doing it on a weekly basis.
Same here. Last week, I didn’t get much sleep and I woke up tired. I didn’t want to do my ruck march. In the dark, this guys voice rang in my head and I got up and did it. I felt so much better about myself.
That should open you up to being like you know what I rather relax after a long day of work so I’m going to wake up earlier and go to the gym before work own your day then when you get off work after how ever hours tired you realize wow I can relax I don’t have to worry about going to the gym while it’s all packed and can enjoy your night . That’s what I’m doing wake up at 4:30 to hit the gym to go to work at 7 and sometimes I’m working till 7 and be tired being in the sun during the day but I feel great not having to worry about the gym after a long day at work .
Your purpose is yourself. I have never thought of that and was not ready to really take that in until today. I'm so glad I saw this, specifically right now. Thank you!
This brought me to tears. It’s one of those messages that just came at the right time. Love this man’s strength, tenacity, and power behind his words 💪🏽💪🏽
I am 62 living alone all by myself I go to church serving My Lord playing gospel music which I have been doing this ever since I was 25 years old way back in April or May 1987 now do not get me wrong I sure do have my days of not wanting to do things but when you got to pay the bills and do your Landry you got to do what you really have got to do in order to survive because I tell you I get sick and tired of being alone all by myself it sure is really nice to find a woman to settle myself down but into this day and age of a world that WE truly are living in there are so so many challenges which I do do take some chances for myself so I can become a Overcomer one day in Jesus Name.. now when it all comes down to Disappointments? Sure! who does not have them But! If We can accomplish things and try to stay Positive and have The Faith that saids it all. I really enjoy this video that I am listening to
I'm 17 now. Doing all the shit a teen would do. I need you guys to support me. I need to be accountable to you guys. And make my biggest life turn after this video hope that happens. ❤
Absolutely agree with this. Mindset is key. Coming out of Covid I was at my heaviest weight of 119kg at 5ft11 and wasn’t happy with my lifestyle. Decided to switch this up and over the course of 14 months I lost around 30kg by eating clean, adopting healthier habits (walking/cycling instead of driving where possible) and started playing sports again.
Amazing work man. I'm in that boat now. I got up to about 120kg at the same height. Over the last few months I've lost 22 pounds...I cannot wait to see how I am 14 months out like you. Keep it up!
Goggins mindset always reminded me of Bruce Lee. Both of them are just the most relentless, focused, uncompromising humans. Both are incredibly inspiring
This video came to my feed at the most perfect time in my life when things are the roughest I’ve ever felt. Thank for opening my lenses to a whole new perspective.
@@hood7271I listened to his book Can’t Hurt Me on Audible while walking and ended up going from 5k steps/day to 15k steps/day after a few days and have maintained that.
Recently finished university, soon the graduate and searching for a job feeling like I have no purpose but keep finding my self here realising I am my purpose and I can keep going, now David goggins is my daily music
Netflix ,lazy, wrong food, libido going down...i was killing myself slowly. Goggins helped me make a u turn. Im training , non processed food, im mentaly and physicly stronger, my wife enjoys it to😉. Things get better. Training = happiness and freedom . Tnx mr goggins👍excuse for wrong spelling,im from holland.
I don't know how this guy hasn't received some sort of title or accolade for his work on motivating others, just imagine how many people he's helped get healthier and stronger mentally
By far the easiest way for me to get up at 3 or 4am is my NIGHT routine. Eating dinner as early as possible (5 - 6pm) then nothing else, because digestion steals tones of energy. Secondly, meditation before sleeping. Thirdly, going to sleep around 9 - 10pm = waking up before 5am ... no alarms needed. Adding Goggins powerful perspective "YOU ARE THE PURPOSE" ... and bam LFG !!!!
Definitely needed to hear this. Back in 2017 I received a devastating diagnosis that completely derailed me, but worse, heard the specialist say, "We're already doing everything for you that we can." And that was it. Everything I had seen in front of me, at the time, was gone. Now I've been in dialysis for a year and a half, and while I've fallen into a life that isn't too bad (I have income, hobbies, friends, etc...), there are still days where I have to find a reason to keep going, especially as I never refound the hope I lost that day of the diagnosis, nor did I have a "purpose" in my mind to keep going. But this above what what I needed to hear; I am not less than because I am disabled, or less than because I couldn't continue on my track for my goals. I am only less than because I allowed myself to believe that I am. "YOU are always the purpose." Thank you.
Stopped smoking weed after 10 years...2 months being clean working out like never...i know i will light that joint again sometimes but its so easy for me tonm stay clean now and just work out...this man is a good motivation...i rly needed to give my lungs some break...feels good
I been hung up on the idea of purpose in life for years because it feels like i had no passion for any craft that i do i get bored with things i thought i was passionate about in the beginning so when that dies down i feel like im lost. But what goggins said about not needing a purpose to thrive and the only purpose is getting better at whatever it is is ur doing to be a better you. That really spoke to me and was something i needed to hear that i dont think anyone around me could have ever explained to me. Thank you.
Heard of him in April this year and his book "Can't Hurt Me" has been a revelation in changing my mindset in the way I approach life in general. Thanks DG for inspiring, I'm now driven rather than finding motivation from somewhere. Stay Hard!
The way I got off my "couch" Is I hated myself so much for being lazy and coming up short day after day, year after year. I knew something had to change. I used David as motivation. You also need the will power to act on that motivation. Be inspired by your progress (don't compare your progress to others) and let it snowball. Soon you will be in a position you can be proud of. Then use that pride to keep going and surpass everyone else. Remember the hardest thing in life is going from 0 to 1. If you can go from 0 to 1, 1 to 2 is easier and so on and so forth. Everyone had to start from 0, even Goggins.
That's exactly how I am feeling yet I have jit enough care for myself to actually get up I'm out of faith but mayb e moving with no faith is what I need
Wow, I admire this man so much. Read all his books. He is the only one who emphasizes the truth of personal development - push yourself without anybody else giving you a reward, every single day. Otherwise life is gonna come up and you won't be ready.
I love what Goggins said about leveling up. It gives him pleasure knowing that there are a bunch of people who are not willing to do what he is willing to do. We are living in a very competitive world and the only way you will become successful is if you are willing to do what most people aren't. If that isn't a huge indicator for someone making progress towards a goal, I don't know what is.
This really hit the nail on the head of what I’m going through right now. Going from a young adult into someone where the pieces are starting to fall together, someone I can respect and call a true adult. It’s a beautiful thing, like a butterfly finally starting to fly after being in a cocoon for so long.
People might say “we need more people like him” but we really should be saying “we should try be like him” instead. Different words hold different meanings. David Goggins is an eye opener to be your best self. Chase not wish. Love you all and Goggins❤
I am 31years old, I use to 300 Lbs, I have struggled with ADHD my whole life, I use to be an addict, and I have no friends. I never fit in with anyone, and I have always stood out amongst the crowd. But I will say I have found a friend in David Goggins. There are so many aspects of his life that I find relative to mine and his words are an inspiration. I now wish to live a life of greatness and I have been aiming for it but his videos make me want to push further. I needed to hear this.
I learnt through pain, that not being my best is so much worse than getting up and doing what needs to be done for the day. Pain and time are the ultimate tests of life….
The best thing bout this podcast was prolly how you didn't put any background music in the video. I have never felt such dedication while watching something for so long. Props to u 🎉
Absolutely agree. That is the most difficult thing to accept and to keep accepting day after day. When my off-season starts and the gap between then and the start of the next season, it's about mental discipline to keep training. Maintaining the sense of "this is what we do now" and avoiding quitting. That's when you must move forward. When you absolutely don't want to do it. That's when it is most important.
Hard thing to do here is to look in the mirror snd say ..I love you, you are so amazing .. soooo many people not only cannot, but will not, do it .. too sad .😢 Powerful podcast, resonated very strongly with me...ouch...🥺thank you .👍🏼

I’ve been struggling to find my purpose and I needed to hear this. I was already having a shitty morning and the woman at the register was genuinely sweet to everyone. Her smile gave me hope.

HER purpose was customer service, not just taking your money. Wise up.
Don’t listen to the person saying she was only taking your money. She could’ve been surly, but she smiled. Don’t take her kindness away from her.
@@MFV77 I think it is interesting how some people look out onto life and at others. What we see through our own "colored glasses" is exactly what life becomes for us. We reap what we sow.
@@doctorartphd6463 You're right about one thing. How we look at life & others does affect what we see. You saw through the lens of cynicism, presumed to know better than the person who actually had the experience, & attempted to spread your negative beliefs. The OP recognized when they were in the presence of genuine sweetness (I've been a cashier---people can tell!), appreciated it, and shared it with others who appreciated it too (52 likes to date). I know which harvest I'd rather reap!

Been trying to wise up since childhood. Thank you for your perspective @doctorartphd
I've made videos about this myself but Goggins expresses it far better than I ever could... sleep experts will disagree with me here but my personal experience is: if I sleep from 10PM - 5AM, I feel FAR more motivated than if I sleep 10PM - 5AM then snooze til 7AM... just being awake and getting stuff early while it's still dark out feels godly... even if the second half of my day ends up more 'relaxation mode', its worth the sacrifice of feeling a bit sh*t and cold for about 2 minutes...
They say "if you lose an hour in the morning, you'll spend the rest of the day trying to find it." I couldn't agree more!
Oh and sleep earlier than 10 if possible 😅

We need more positivity like these men speak. Aged 66 I still knock out running 7 miles in an hour. Used to be 10 mph. Never ever give up!!! Dont be a victim!! One life.
your in better shape than me and im 18 that’s amazing

@@sherm_4268Maybe in 50 years someone will be saying the same thing to you!
"Cause one day that thing is going to come up, and if your not constantly performing out purpose your not going to be ready when that time comes". Damn I felt that
One of the many things I appreciate about David Goggins is his tough, kick your ass, no nonsense way of explaining things. 🙏🙏
I also love his complete disdain for excuses
It's crazy how many stories are there in this comment section, you guys are so inspirational. I just wanna say thank you to all of you who have shared your story here, you never know who you can inspire and motivate. Probably you're not like Goggins, frankly, no one is, but you're an inspiration. Keep it up and stay hard
I just watched this hating myself laying on my bed and drinking beer. Then got inspired to go on a run. But it was raining and my only shoes were soaked. Without thinking twice I got up, chugged my beer, and ran in the rain barefoot. I would have normally looked at people's reactions to me barefoot but remembered I AM THE PURPOSE and it is for ME! I felt empowered doing it all for myself as those people went by me. I feel a million times better. Thank you for the motivation
Did you really run after chugging a beer? I’d feel that shit in my stomach every step!
Ya right😂😂😂
When the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change, that’s when the change happens.
So true; did a BA and ended up not liking the field, the earnings etc. Going to college again in a total different field, older, working full time +54 hours a week, and trying to squish gym. Working up 5 am and arriving home around 23:00h.
I really want to go through the struggle and "fear" of changing everything? Not having so many time to be with me girlfriend, may not finding a job in the new field, or not even liking it too or something. But staying is so hurtful too, I NEED to do something!
You fucking summed it
This is honestly beautiful. I'm a woman and can't tell you how much Goggins has inspired me and made me feel better about myself while helping me find my own drive! He teaches us that we're only in competition with ourselves!!! There's so much pressure we put on ourselves by comparing ourselves to others and Goggins reminds us to only compare ourselves to OURSELVES. Thank-you so much, Goggins! STAY HARD EVERYONE ❤
finding you and finding these videos has made me want to turn my life around. i am about 4 months clean off abusing pills and i have kind of just been lost since becoming sober, now i want to wake up and actually improve myself every day instead of just sitting on the couch as you say. dont be ashamed of your past actions, take your mistakes and learn from them and become a better man.
18 days sober from porn. I've tried and failed to maintain an abstinence streak 3 times this year, currently on my fourth attempt. I won't give up until I'm free from it forever.
Respect brother. I believe in you not to be a bitch.
Did you succeed?
You can do this and finally be able to have a life free from a ridiculous addiction that leaves you feeling empty and numb. You deserve a real relationship with a loving caring partner.
Frick yeah bro turn up
Keep going you can do it!!
Last time I was listening religiously to this dude was two years ago and I have reached my biggest goal in life because of him. I'm back again because I'm moving to my dream country next week and need to face my fears. He never disappoints.
im with him , i live alone so theres nobody around to motivate me or keep me in check . after a while you realize it really is all on you to better yourself and there is no shortcut to greatness of any kind , but you can achieve it no matter who you are or what your situation , just get after it , do what you can , and then do more , strangely enough things will begin to fall into place and the more they do the easier it will get for you to achieve more if you continue to improve yourself because you will be getting stronger and smarter which leads to more progress . its a viscious cycle . im up to 5 miles a day now plus other exercises aside from my daily tasks , job , school etc. and its all leading to more because im able to handle more . im not special by any means i just made a decision one day to start and not stop . if your reading this you can achieve greatness , just go for it and dont let anybody stop you or tell you you cant , especially yourself . excuses are easy , life is hard , so stay hard 💪
Stay hard Chris

I was addicted to food. For the first time in my life I’m cutting down and not giving in to every craving in an effort to respect myself and rewire my brain. I use food because I’m struggling with my goals but now I’m facing it. I write everyday, I gym everyday , I’m literally being the person I want to be even though it’s hard and I don’t want to and I want to sleep and eat mostly.
We have to choose our hard. Do I want to be lazy and not level up and be ‘comfortable’ or do I want to maintain my beautiful body eat well write as it’s my passion…. I don’t want to be all those things , I am those things. Keep going guys, it’s not easy but you know what it’s better than being on the ‘comfort’ cushion that offers no real comfort whatsoever man. ❤
This year so far I've been getting up and sticking to my routine because I want to change and I want to be a better version of myself physically, mentally, and spiritually and David Goggins helps me alot by motivating me by what he says! He is a true badass warrior

I started to workout since January this year and eat healthy. Today we are June, after months of consistency I lost weight and gain muscles. I’m proud of myself and what I have achieved in a short period of time.
"I am the purpose". I am the purpose is spot on. You will never be lonely if you are happy and like yourself.
I owe a ton to Goggins.
Running barely a km to more than 2 kms, healthy eating, putting on muscle, feeling more positive.
Thank you Goggins 🙏🏼
This is, in my opinion, one of the best segments of a podcast ever!
I developed a method for getting up early and its served me very well. I started by setting myself a soft goal, like just get up before 7:30am. I did this and then when I did was I recorded this time in a file on my phone, then the next day I set a goal that was just to beat this time, it could be even 7:29am. When I did that I kept going until I got to 5:30am. I rarely want to be up before 5:30 so I'll get up between 5:30am and 6:30am. I started this over a year ago and by now its ingrained in me. What kept me going at the start was that I made a game out of it, i was always trying to beat my previous time and when its like this it becomes fun.
Great tip. Thanks for sharing!
That's great I just don't find it necessary. If someone gets up at 05:30am, 07:00am, 08:00am, or even 09:00am that's up to their individual biology. Every person is different. Some people are better at getting up at 4:00am and others it wrecks them. There is no One Size Fits All standard on physical and mental health. Someone else's challenge might be to sleep an hour later than the normal time they get up, for example, and they feel better when finally accomplishing that. What drives me nuts about these motivational vids on UA-cam is they keep pushing for a singular answer. There is no singular answer. Each person and their circumstance may be different.
@@damienholland8103 Im yet to meet someone who feels better getting up at 10am except for because of the fact its more comfortable or they have nothing to do.
@@callanc3925 That's cool but different bodies have different needs regardless. The point still stands. I know I guy who is in his 90s that only needs 4 hours of sleep. But if you are not genetically built for that 4 hours can hurt you. Has nothing to do with willpower it's all about understanding your individual biology and accommodating to it. Same goes with diet. Same with exercise.
I wish I could shut off my brain before midnight. I've tried sleeping pills (messed me up), melatonin helps but also groggy in morning.
No matter how tired I am after work . I think of this dude and I’m like ok let’s go gym . Thanks 🙏🏼
And no matter how tired you are, every time you do that you come out of the gym feeling the best you have all day
@@friedkin71 been training for 5+ years now, and honestly no, when i drag myself up to train after a hard day at work i usually cut the training extra short and get really tired afterwards, skipping a day in the gym is not something that should be frowned upon, aslong as your not doing it on a weekly basis.
Same here. Last week, I didn’t get much sleep and I woke up tired. I didn’t want to do my ruck march. In the dark, this guys voice rang in my head and I got up and did it. I felt so much better about myself.
They don’t know you son!👊💪
That should open you up to being like you know what I rather relax after a long day of work so I’m going to wake up earlier and go to the gym before work own your day then when you get off work after how ever hours tired you realize wow I can relax I don’t have to worry about going to the gym while it’s all packed and can enjoy your night . That’s what I’m doing wake up at 4:30 to hit the gym to go to work at 7 and sometimes I’m working till 7 and be tired being in the sun during the day but I feel great not having to worry about the gym after a long day at work .
Your purpose is yourself. I have never thought of that and was not ready to really take that in until today. I'm so glad I saw this, specifically right now. Thank you!
This brought me to tears. It’s one of those messages that just came at the right time. Love this man’s strength, tenacity, and power behind his words 💪🏽💪🏽
I am 62 living alone all by myself I go to church serving My Lord playing gospel music which I have been doing this ever since I was 25 years old way back in April or May 1987 now do not get me wrong I sure do have my days of not wanting to do things but when you got to pay the bills and do your Landry you got to do what you really have got to do in order to survive because I tell you I get sick and tired of being alone all by myself it sure is really nice to find a woman to settle myself down but into this day and age of a world that WE truly are living in there are so so many challenges which I do do take some chances for myself so I can become a Overcomer one day in Jesus Name.. now when it all comes down to Disappointments? Sure! who does not have them But! If We can accomplish things and try to stay Positive and have The Faith that saids it all. I really enjoy this video that I am listening to
I'm 17 now. Doing all the shit a teen would do. I need you guys to support me. I need to be accountable to you guys. And make my biggest life turn after this video hope that happens. ❤
Remember that your mental health is paramount. Treat yourself with respect, and respect others.
Hope is not a strategy. Discipline is !
How’s it going?❤
Hope it's going well king
hows it going bro
I now smoke a lot of cannabis and am into pills, but after watching this, I'm going to make every effort to change.
Absolutely agree with this. Mindset is key. Coming out of Covid I was at my heaviest weight of 119kg at 5ft11 and wasn’t happy with my lifestyle. Decided to switch this up and over the course of 14 months I lost around 30kg by eating clean, adopting healthier habits (walking/cycling instead of driving where possible) and started playing sports again.
Amazing work man. I'm in that boat now. I got up to about 120kg at the same height. Over the last few months I've lost 22 pounds...I cannot wait to see how I am 14 months out like you. Keep it up!
Thank you david Goggins you changed the course of my life
Halfway thru and I was so motivated, I had to pause the video and do a few sets of push-ups.
Same here💯
Its crazy how easy it is to brainwash you sheep. Go do slave labour rather than thinking.
😂😂😂😂😂
Nice😅
No money can buy David’s state of mind and ability to achieve what he has done. He is one of the most interesting people to listen to.
It's amazing to know that alot of people out there just needs to hear these things being said to them to undergo a major change in their lives.
Amen
Goggins mindset always reminded me of Bruce Lee. Both of them are just the most relentless, focused, uncompromising humans. Both are incredibly inspiring

I was walking 3.8 miles every other day and now if I listen to David Goggins the whole time I can go 7 miles! It's great motivation!

Recently finished university, soon the graduate and searching for a job feeling like I have no purpose but keep finding my self here realising I am my purpose and I can keep going, now David goggins is my daily music
Netflix ,lazy, wrong food, libido going down...i was killing myself slowly. Goggins helped me make a u turn. Im training , non processed food, im mentaly and physicly stronger, my wife enjoys it to😉. Things get better. Training = happiness and freedom . Tnx mr goggins👍excuse for wrong spelling,im from holland.
I don't know how this guy hasn't received some sort of title or accolade for his work on motivating others, just imagine how many people he's helped get healthier and stronger mentally
By far the easiest way for me to get up at 3 or 4am is my NIGHT routine. Eating dinner as early as possible (5 - 6pm) then nothing else, because digestion steals tones of energy. Secondly, meditation before sleeping. Thirdly, going to sleep around 9 - 10pm = waking up before 5am ... no alarms needed. Adding Goggins powerful perspective "YOU ARE THE PURPOSE" ... and bam LFG !!!!
Definitely needed to hear this. Back in 2017 I received a devastating diagnosis that completely derailed me, but worse, heard the specialist say, "We're already doing everything for you that we can." And that was it. Everything I had seen in front of me, at the time, was gone. Now I've been in dialysis for a year and a half, and while I've fallen into a life that isn't too bad (I have income, hobbies, friends, etc...), there are still days where I have to find a reason to keep going, especially as I never refound the hope I lost that day of the diagnosis, nor did I have a "purpose" in my mind to keep going. But this above what what I needed to hear; I am not less than because I am disabled, or less than because I couldn't continue on my track for my goals. I am only less than because I allowed myself to believe that I am. "YOU are always the purpose." Thank you.
very happy to explore the comment section. Full of positivity and good thoughts. Lets get better!🙏
I love short and to the point interviews with people who can be clear, concise and to the point! Thanks!
I’ve been following Goggins for a while, but this conversation resonated with me the most. Good on y’all for spreading goodness.
Sometimes the comments are just as motivating (if not more) and inspirational than the video itself. Thanks ya’ll.
You dont need motivation you need to become obsessed with what you want in life. Motivation is temporary.
Stopped smoking weed after 10 years...2 months being clean working out like never...i know i will light that joint again sometimes but its so easy for me tonm stay clean now and just work out...this man is a good motivation...i rly needed to give my lungs some break...feels good
I been hung up on the idea of purpose in life for years because it feels like i had no passion for any craft that i do i get bored with things i thought i was passionate about in the beginning so when that dies down i feel like im lost. But what goggins said about not needing a purpose to thrive and the only purpose is getting better at whatever it is is ur doing to be a better you. That really spoke to me and was something i needed to hear that i dont think anyone around me could have ever explained to me. Thank you.
Love goggins. Wouldn’t be who I am without him and his content
David's suffering has caused him to transcend, which is true beauty. Took the dark and tuned it into light.
F**king genius. The purpose is ALWAYS YOU!!! Great message dude. STAY HARD!!!!
Thats why we live in a world full of egocentric idiots
The first 3 minutes are golden. Nobody can say it better. That's it. Thank you.
When purpose becomes neccesity, purpose has reached its true purpose. Very resonating.
Heard of him in April this year and his book "Can't Hurt Me" has been a revelation in changing my mindset in the way I approach life in general. Thanks DG for inspiring, I'm now driven rather than finding motivation from somewhere. Stay Hard!
The way I got off my "couch" Is I hated myself so much for being lazy and coming up short day after day, year after year. I knew something had to change. I used David as motivation. You also need the will power to act on that motivation. Be inspired by your progress (don't compare your progress to others) and let it snowball. Soon you will be in a position you can be proud of. Then use that pride to keep going and surpass everyone else. Remember the hardest thing in life is going from 0 to 1. If you can go from 0 to 1, 1 to 2 is easier and so on and so forth. Everyone had to start from 0, even Goggins.
That's exactly how I am feeling yet I have jit enough care for myself to actually get up I'm out of faith but mayb e moving with no faith is what I need
Wow, I admire this man so much. Read all his books. He is the only one who emphasizes the truth of personal development - push yourself without anybody else giving you a reward, every single day. Otherwise life is gonna come up and you won't be ready.
Sitting with a guy once that was in great shape. He was 72. He said “ I owe it to my family”. That was it for me.
Im addicted to goggs dont give af attitude and be the best u can be .hes a REAL man when u are that possitve u cannot loose ❤
To better ones self is our main purpose in life and to serve others . That’s what it’s all about ❤
Perfect..... I wish we could connect. So much power in serving ❤️
I have no idea how this popped up in my recommended at the perfect time but I needed to hear this. You guys are great.
I love what Goggins said about leveling up. It gives him pleasure knowing that there are a bunch of people who are not willing to do what he is willing to do. We are living in a very competitive world and the only way you will become successful is if you are willing to do what most people aren't. If that isn't a huge indicator for someone making progress towards a goal, I don't know what is.
Goggins da man. From a rich, upper crust, privileged lifestyle. This guy knows the meaning of life and we love him for it.
If I could listen to only one man on earth for motivation for the rest of my days, it’s this man right here.
This really hit the nail on the head of what I’m going through right now. Going from a young adult into someone where the pieces are starting to fall together, someone I can respect and call a true adult. It’s a beautiful thing, like a butterfly finally starting to fly after being in a cocoon for so long.
People might say “we need more people like him” but we really should be saying “we should try be like him” instead. Different words hold different meanings. David Goggins is an eye opener to be your best self. Chase not wish. Love you all and Goggins❤
I am 31years old, I use to 300 Lbs, I have struggled with ADHD my whole life, I use to be an addict, and I have no friends. I never fit in with anyone, and I have always stood out amongst the crowd. But I will say I have found a friend in David Goggins. There are so many aspects of his life that I find relative to mine and his words are an inspiration. I now wish to live a life of greatness and I have been aiming for it but his videos make me want to push further. I needed to hear this.
Little steps every day towards greater goals buddy.
You can do it !
You become very powerful when you overcome yourself, that’s the answer right there!

The perfect day to start is today!!! Now!!! To change ur life around!!! Lfg!!!! Stay hard!!!! 🖤
“If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for everything.” Gonna put that one on a tile
I learnt through pain, that not being my best is so much worse than getting up and doing what needs to be done for the day.
Pain and time are the ultimate tests of life….
The best thing bout this podcast was prolly how you didn't put any background music in the video.
I have never felt such dedication while watching something for so long. Props to u 🎉
Absolutely agree. That is the most difficult thing to accept and to keep accepting day after day. When my off-season starts and the gap between then and the start of the next season, it's about mental discipline to keep training. Maintaining the sense of "this is what we do now" and avoiding quitting. That's when you must move forward. When you absolutely don't want to do it. That's when it is most important.
the pupose never leaves you,because the very purpose is you.
wow that hit right in the core.
Bro this has motivated me so much, I hope my daily Dubai vlogs do well I work so hard for this❤
This David Goggins guy is something else, major respect to Chris as well for cultivating such a great podcast. Inspiring from both parties.
Hard thing to do here is to look in the mirror snd say ..I love you, you are so amazing .. soooo many people not only cannot, but will not, do it .. too sad .😢 Powerful podcast, resonated very strongly with me...ouch...🥺thank you .👍🏼
