Excellent arguments made

Revisado: 12-30-22

Not at all surprising, a well thought out approach to Malcolm’s ideas, made me reconsider some of my positions.

Makes you think on a deeper level, not just a book about physical accomplishment

Revisado: 07-18-20

Clearly a driven individual, but I still found myself questioning to what end was Goggins driven? Did his drive and remarkable accomplishments bring him happiness or whatever else it was he was after? I found the delivery of his story was done in an excellent way, in contrast to a book on a similar topic by Angela Duckworth called Grit, which while I found it to be a generally worthwhile read, came across to me often as a humble brag. Goggins is honest one this book, not leaving out the “ugly” parts of his stories, his transformation from the beginning of his story to the end is quite impressive. The main message I took from his was to believe in yourself while remaining completely honest with yourself, not to be confined by what others see as the limits of your capabilities.

Excellent summary of an excellent book

I’d recommend reading the whole text, but this is an excellent resource to preview or review the whole text.

Changed my life for the better, without a doubt

Revisado: 07-18-20

I never thought I would ever read a book like this, I never thought a book written two thousand years ago would have such direct influence on my life and provide such practical insights to today’s world, it is as if it was written yesterday in that regard. Such a pure and beautiful perspective on life. I have listened to it many times and never get tired of it. It has started me down a road studying Stoic philosophy which has forever changed me, I wish I read it 30 years ago.

Life changing

Revisado: 02-13-19

The ideas in this book, written 2,000 years ago, ring true as if they were written yesterday. Simply stated and understandable Marcus Aurelius presents ideas that can be applied to our everyday life. Not a feel good book full of affirmations, but rather a practical guide to deal with real life events and personal struggles. It has changed my way of viewing things I thought I had already figured out.
