Interview with Retired Navy SEAL David Goggins Might Just Be The Fittest, Toughest, and Most Inspiring Man on Earth
David Goggins might just be the fittest, toughest, and most inspiring man on the planet… but he did not start out that way.
David graduated 213th out of 214 in his high school class. He bombed his first two attempts at the ASFAP test which would allow him to enlist in the military and basically had to re-learn the entire high school curriculum in just six months in order to pass on his third attempt.
But that when his journey really started…
David went from weighing over 300 pounds to becoming the 36th African American to become a Navy SEAL in the history of the program.
Tune in to hear David’s inspiring story of fighting through suffering, of overcoming obstacles, and finding a whole new level of himself.
In this episode, you will…
- Learn how to David channels suffering into pride
- Understand how when you push yourself, you are able to use negative thoughts as energy
- Discover how the negative perspective can actually create an optimistic outlook
- Realize the importance of looking for approval within yourself, not externally

Beware of the undertow.
Chapter 5: The Tectonic Shift, Tsunami, and Undertow: Understanding The Power of Directional Pull (Part A) by Ed O’Keefe Most people fail at success principles because they don’t know how to handle the reality of the path. Goals are vital because they give us a directional point, but they aren’t everything. In this episode, we discuss understanding the power of directional pull. The idea that you need to have it all figured out before you get started, is a myth. The stronger choice is to get moving.
Chapter 4: The Freedom Question by Ed O’Keefe We all seek things we’d like to change in our current life, and all solutions are hiding beyond the obstacles that we currently have. There’s a distinct pattern of mental breakthrough that I call “The Freedom Question”. This question allows you to shoot out of the present and into the future.
