Don't ever let anyone tell you that you can not do something. All my life I heard that I couldn't do something. My mom was working 2 jobs and going to college. I was an African American kid in an all white school. They tried to say that I couldn't....but I did. I wanted to be a Navy SEAL.

They said I couldn't go to Ranger School because my schedule as a SEAL wouldn't allow it....but I did.They... said that I couldn't run 100 miles because I had never ran a marathon...but I did. They said I could never complete the Ultraman because I had never done a triathlon...but I did.

Dave Goggins is truly a winner and a giver. Defeat is not a word in his vocabulary because he has a purpose that drives him forward. If you would like to feel that kind of passion for something in your life, giving you something to live for…partner up with winners who embody excellence and derive meaning from what they do in their lives.
