521: Finding Your Reserve Tank

“When your brain says that you’re done, you’re only 40 percent done.” —David Goggins, Navy SEAL and ultramarathoner 

Remember the following this week: when I feel like giving in or giving up, I’ll remember the 40 percent rule and how much more I have to give—perhaps up to 60 percent more! When I feel emotional or physical discomfort this week, I’ll remember that discomfort is an ally, not an enemy. To embrace my discomfort, I will write out a discomfort plan so I am ready and can stay gritty. 

 Power Phrase this Week: “I have a reserve tank that hasn’t even been tapped. I work hard, stay the course, and remain gritty.”
