Have you ever heard of David Goggins? Goggins is the only member of the US Armed Forces to complete SEAL training, US Army Ranger School, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller training. Any of those accomplishments alone would have been impressive, but that’s not all. He’s also the current Guinness record holder for the most number of pull-ups done in 24 hours. Alongside that record are multiple first-place finishes at the most brutal ultra-endurance events, which attracts the toughest competitors from around the world.
In this video, he talks about “Get Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable” He is a motivational speaker, but it’s important to recognise how he talks about being successful.
We talk all the time about making the right investment decisions, not the ones that feel right. In other words, to succeed in achieving great investment outcomes, you have to make decisions that don’t feel right. As Goggins states, decisions that feel uncomfortable. If the answers are easy and feel good, is that better for you or better for the people selling you their story?
Most people in our experience are not like David Goggins. Otherwise, they would be beating his pull-ups record or making mind-blowing records of their own. Most people need support. They can’t do it all alone. It’s why we can help you. Want a conversation?
