When you weren't given the gifts, the only thing you can do in life is stay hard; there's no magic pill or potion, just outwork yourself.

There are no magic pills for our challenges; we must actively engage in our well-being.

Everything I've done in my life, I didn't want to do; I built my willpower through years of suffering and hard work.

The truth is that everything I've achieved comes from hard work and a commitment to being real, without lies or pretenses. I go right back to ground zero, which means I'm just David Goggins, and that's where my growth is and my willpower comes from.

There's no passion, no motivation; it's about doing the work every day without those feelings, and I hate how many people use those words because they are watered down.

The unseen work is what motivates me; I don't need external validation because I know what I've accomplished on my own.

Success comes from doing the things others won't do; embrace the hard work.

When something works, it's easy to believe that's the only way to do it, but it's just one way that happened to work at that time.

Ultimately, nothing can substitute for putting in the hours and maintaining a mindset focused on hard work rather than shortcuts.
