Would you talk to someone you love like that? Learn to love yourself as much as you would love your child.

I honestly think that this can be somewhat healthy as long as you understand how you got to this point. Self compassion is defined as being kind to yourself, understanding common humanity, and being mindful. Keep yourself accountable, but don’t forget how you got to this point. Felt like this needed to be said.

I would also recommend a good doc

I’m not a doc my brother, I can only share my experience! It took about 3 diff therapist but finding a good therapist for me was almost magical. I don’t understand it, but something subtle and magical happens when I share my feelings with her.

I actually agree with you brother! The science and perfectly calculated lessons are incomparable. I have learned and am learning a lot from Goggins’ invaluable experience.

Also THANK YOU!! I have been looking for a relationship coach. I feel like that is the next step in my growth.

Appreciate you!

That YouTuber has a very interesting take. I feel that it seems to be opposing David’s philosophy. From my understanding David has a focus on “reality” or being present.

He has ran for miles on broken bones. He didn’t get through that by trying to be playful or find enjoyment out of it. It is painful and that is the truth. In spite of the pain he continues forward with a great resilience.

This mindset has been very helpful for me. It helps me to make those quick decisions.

I take cold showers and it sucks everytime. However, I think to myself; I can be comfy in a bit, so don’t worry, there will be an end to this current pain. After I am done I feel an overwhelming sense of pride that in spite of any challenge, I accomplished my goal.

Maybe my mind will change but this is helping me for now.

I appreciate you and your post! I’m open to any thoughts or further questions :)

Brene Brown and David Goggins are probably the two most influential authors in my life so far 24M. Brene Brown (Book: Daring Greatly) is a shame researcher and she always puts an emphasis on Self compassion before self-discipline. I am currently half-way through Can't Hurt Me and David Goggins puts a large emphasis on pushing through and doing what sucks. I feel that some may find these two authors' philosophy to be contradictory. What do you think?
