- 1:39Speaker 1: you in that.
- 1:40Speaker 2: If you're good with being who you are.
- 1:42Speaker 1: And every day you wake up and every day you
- 1:44Speaker 1: smell like shit because you can't wash your body well,
- 1:47Speaker 1: and your skin's messed up because your health so bad,
- 1:50Speaker 1: and you can't put your clothes on right, you need help.

- 1:56Speaker 2: That makes you feel good. Nothing not gonna say you.
- 2:01Speaker 2: If every day you wake up with this.
- 2:03Speaker 1: See, people are haunted, but they obviously like horror films
- 2:08Speaker 1: because they keep watching the same fucking movie.
- 2:10Speaker 2: I don't like horror films.
- 2:12Speaker 1: A lot of people like horror films, so I don't
- 2:14Speaker 1: say much to them. I say exactly what I said
- 2:17Speaker 1: to you right there, because I.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Was once you. I didn't like horror films, so I
- 2:23Speaker 2: changed it. I had this haunting voice in the back
- 2:26Speaker 2: of my head. A lot of us have it. We
- 2:28Speaker 2: didn't ignore it, and it was there for years.
- 2:32Speaker 1: So I knew in the back of my mind that
- 2:36Speaker 1: I could pull off this whatever whatever I wanted.
- 2:40Speaker 2: I knew I could. I knew that, But I was afraid.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Of the work because I wasn't gifted with brains. I
- 2:48Speaker 1: wasn't gifted with God given talent as far as like athleticism.
- 2:52Speaker 1: So I knew to get to where I had to
- 2:54Speaker 1: go to be on the same playing field as these
- 2:57Speaker 1: men to even try out for this program, I knew
- 3:01Speaker 1: the work was gonna be something that I didn't want
- 3:03Speaker 1: to even even attack.
- 3:06Speaker 2: So I'll just put it off because it haunted me.
- 3:10Speaker 1: The voice in my head say, you know what, man,
- 3:12Speaker 1: You're gonna die never even trying to reach your full potential.
- 3:18Speaker 2: And how's that gonna feel. So I'm gonna I'm gonna
- 3:20Speaker 2: live even while I'm dead.
- 3:22Speaker 1: I'm gonna be because I believe in a higher power,
- 3:24Speaker 1: whatever it may be.
- 3:25Speaker 2: I don't know what it is.
- 3:26Speaker 1: I believe that your mind lives forever, some spirit, something
- 3:30Speaker 1: lives forever. I'm gonna be haunted by the mere fact
- 3:34Speaker 1: that I literally just that's what I.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Was wasted that life, That's what I was.
- 3:39Speaker 1: And to look back and here lies David Goggins uponker.
- 3:43Speaker 2: That's it, and I get to live.
- 3:45Speaker 1: So whatever heaven or hell is, you're a hell the
- 3:48Speaker 1: rest of your life, the rest of your life. And
- 3:51Speaker 1: if there is a god, who is I hope to
- 3:53Speaker 1: God there is, knowing what I put myself through. Now,
- 3:57Speaker 1: whatever memories I have, if there's any at all, I'll
- 4:01Speaker 1: be a happy man. But I knew that I was
- 4:04Speaker 1: getting paid for this while I was living, orhile I
- 4:05Speaker 1: was dead. I'll get paid for this because basically me,
- 4:09Speaker 1: it was a huge sin. I'm basically just gonna sit
- 4:12Speaker 1: here and just be a comfortable man.
- 4:14Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna try.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Some people are just they become like you said, it
- 4:19Speaker 1: gets real small. When you're lazy and you're fat, your will,
- 4:25Speaker 1: your will is so.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Small that they don't have any and you can't give
- 4:29Speaker 2: it to them. There has to be something.
- 4:31Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about now, because this isn't
- 4:35Speaker 1: a hack.
- 4:36Speaker 2: This has to be in you.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Something in you has to wake up, and usually the
- 4:43Speaker 1: only person that can wake it up is you. Sometimes
- 4:46Speaker 1: you can read a David Gagin's book because I was
- 4:48Speaker 1: all this shit and then a lot more fucked up.
- 4:52Speaker 1: But if you don't have a little flame, you know,
- 4:55Speaker 1: just that just fairly, if you're done.
- 4:58Speaker 2: It, I can't I can't light it for you.
- 5:02Speaker 1: And that's the harsh reality of this life that I
- 5:05Speaker 1: want to get across.
- 5:06Speaker 2: So fucking bad. You can watch me, you can watch you.
- 5:10Speaker 2: You can watch fucking Rogan and Cameron Hayes, all these motherfuckers.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You can go to Tony Robinson's fuckings bullshit, all this
- 5:16Speaker 1: shit you do, all this shit.
- 5:19Speaker 2: If you you could keep going back and keep.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Spending money and spending money and spending money with no results,
- 5:25Speaker 1: you can wonder, wow, maybe let me go try out
- 5:28Speaker 1: David Goggins. He ain't gonna fucking help you. You have
- 5:32Speaker 1: to explore, examine the insides of yourself.
- 5:37Speaker 2: And what do you really want our life? Your friend?
- 5:40Speaker 1: A lot of people out here just don't fucking want.
- 5:42Speaker 2: It, So guess what have fun with your life?
- 5:48Speaker 1: Go from three to three fifty to four hundred to
- 5:50Speaker 1: four to fifty to five hundred because you don't want it.
- 5:56Speaker 1: And that's the harsh reality. I can't give you shit.
- 6:00Speaker 1: You can't give them shit. We can give you ideas.
- 6:03Speaker 1: But in the day when I was losing the weight,
- 6:07Speaker 1: I had to miserably wake up every morning in the
- 6:11Speaker 1: cold because there's Indiana Novembers. When it started, I was miserable.
- 6:18Speaker 1: This is your new life, take her or leave it.
- 6:22Speaker 1: There's no happiness about it, there's no peace behind it.
- 6:27Speaker 2: It sucks. It just fucking sucks.
- 6:32Speaker 1: I developed a reality that wasn't real. That's the thing
- 6:36Speaker 1: we always do. We can have a great life, but
- 6:39Speaker 1: we always build this reality around the one thing we
- 6:41Speaker 1: don't have. So therefore our great life we don't even
- 6:44Speaker 1: see it. We see the one piece of clothing we
- 6:49Speaker 1: weren't able to get, versus the amazing things we have,
- 6:52Speaker 1: so we focus on that. I was the king of
- 6:54Speaker 1: focusing on the one bad thing in my life, the
- 6:58Speaker 1: one bad person called me nigger, everything bad. I focused
- 7:02Speaker 1: on that. But over here was a beautiful reality of
- 7:06Speaker 1: my life, even though I came from nothing where I
- 7:11Speaker 1: could have taken my mind for the possibilities of where
- 7:14Speaker 1: I can go if I work harder. That was all
- 7:18Speaker 1: over here if I lived in the fifth over here.
- 7:21Speaker 1: So basically what I started doing was when I was
- 7:24Speaker 1: two ninety seven, I thought about my God, man, like
- 7:28Speaker 1: this is my life, and I thought, okay, what does
- 7:31Speaker 1: heaven look like?
- 7:32Speaker 2: I don't know, no one does. I imagine.
- 7:35Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, I imagine that it was
- 7:37Speaker 1: a big long line and you got judgment and you're God.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Let's say you're God and I'm just David.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Goggins, big long line and you're talking to Jane Doe.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Jane Doe goes by and behind you is a big
- 7:49Speaker 1: white board and the white board has like just a
- 7:53Speaker 1: piece of paper and you pull it down. The next
- 7:55Speaker 1: person in lines, David Goggins. And on this board it
- 7:59Speaker 1: has all this stuff on it. If I can't see
- 8:02Speaker 1: him too far back in line, so I come up,
- 8:03Speaker 1: I sit down. Now you're talking to me, David. Congratulations,
- 8:07Speaker 1: you made to heaven. How you feel? And right now
- 8:09Speaker 1: I'm three hundred pounds man Eco lab guy, I'm seventy
- 8:12Speaker 1: one years old. This is what I'm thinking at twenty
- 8:15Speaker 1: four years old. Okay, I'm dead, I'm in heaven.
- 8:18Speaker 2: You're God.
- 8:20Speaker 1: You pull a paper down, says David gagins. I'm reading
- 8:22Speaker 1: it and I'm looking at it and it.
- 8:25Speaker 2: Has my name, But on this paper it says everything
- 8:28Speaker 2: about you, everything, because God knows all.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Now I'm looking at it and I'm seeing one hundred
- 8:35Speaker 1: and eighty five pounds, navy seal, change people's lives, all
- 8:40Speaker 1: these amazing things, public speaker, blah blah blah blah blah, motivation,
- 8:44Speaker 1: all the best selling book. And look at God, said God,
- 8:48Speaker 1: the name is right, But what's on here is not me,
- 8:53Speaker 1: he goes, It should have been you. This was the
- 8:57Speaker 1: life that you were supposed to live, but you didn't try.
- 9:01Speaker 1: So this is the life that you have. So what
- 9:04Speaker 1: I think to myself is are you in heaven? Am
- 9:07Speaker 1: I talking to God? Or am I talking to the devil?
- 9:10Speaker 1: Because I'm in hell now to see that that was
- 9:12Speaker 1: supposed to my life, but because I didn't try hard enough,
- 9:15Speaker 1: because I I'm put forward every single bit of an
- 9:19Speaker 1: ounce of pressure in my body into being better, they
- 9:24Speaker 1: ended up being a three hundred pound guy that made
- 9:26Speaker 1: thousand dollars a month.
- 9:27Speaker 2: And I was fine there, that was okay. So that's
- 9:30Speaker 2: how my mind works.
- 9:32Speaker 1: It works that way to see where is this gonna
- 9:35Speaker 1: take me, what's the possibility.
- 9:39Speaker 2: You know, I worked out so hard I'd have time
- 9:41Speaker 2: to stretch my house. I was running one hundred fifty
- 9:43Speaker 2: miles a week. I was backing to work nowuse I
- 9:45Speaker 2: was getting after it.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Man. I was working a full time job and stretching
- 9:49Speaker 1: and doing that. So my body was literally getting tireder
- 9:52Speaker 1: and tired, not just from what I was doing. Every thinks, oh,
- 9:54Speaker 1: because you ran this. No, I wasn't mad, man, And
- 9:57Speaker 1: so I said, no, I'm gonna try to stretch out,
- 10:00Speaker 1: so I don't do anything for like ten minutes or
- 10:03Speaker 1: you know, I don't do the six minute abad bullshit.
- 10:06Speaker 1: So I started stretching out one hour, hour and a half.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Long story short, man, I shaved my head on once
- 10:11Speaker 1: every morning, and that bump that was on the back
- 10:14Speaker 1: of my fucking head, I started realizing it was shrinking
- 10:16Speaker 1: for some fucking reason. I know why, because I shaved
- 10:19Speaker 1: my head back and I was like, it's getting smaller. Small,
- 10:22Speaker 1: that bump got healthier.
- 10:24Speaker 2: I got small, that bump got I was like, oh,
- 10:26Speaker 2: hold up, motherfucker, what's going on that?
- 10:29Speaker 1: So where has muscles started to get more and more
- 10:31Speaker 1: stretched out, more and more relaxed and then we're a
- 10:33Speaker 1: period of five years, I'm the best shape of my
- 10:35Speaker 1: damn life right now. From stretching out, Wow, that's all
- 10:39Speaker 1: it was. I went from like I can't even count
- 10:41Speaker 1: the medications I was on. Now I'm on a very
- 10:44Speaker 1: low dose thyroid pill period. Do you ever do yoga
- 10:48Speaker 1: all the time? Man?
