The only way that you're ever going to get to the other side of this journey is by suffering. You have to suffer in order to grow. Some people get it, some people don't.

Everybody comes to a point in their life when they want to quit. But it's what you do at that moment that determines who you are.

I'm a big believer in doing things that make you uncomfortable. So, we live in a world where we want to be as comfortable as we can. And we wonder why we have no growth. We wonder why -- when the smallest thing in our life gets difficult -- we wonder why we cower and we run away.

Be more than motivated, be more than driven, become literally obsessed to the point where people think you're f*cking nuts.

If you can see yourself doing something, you can do it. If you ca' see yourself doing it, usually you ca' achieve it.

You have to be willing to go to war with yourself and create a whole new identity.

My whole thing now is I know how to think properly to be successful in all aspects of my life. It's not about ultra running or being a SEAL or pull-up records: it's about if you want to be better you, have to change your perceived limitations and take the barriers down.

If you can see yourself doing something, you can do it. If you can't see yourself doing it, usually you can't achieve it.

True self-discipline is not for the weak-minded. In life we make too many excuses -- I don't live near a gym, don't have the money for a trainer, my hours at work are crazy, I'm traveling too much, the kids schedules are too hectic, etc. The list is endless. Rather than giving yourself a way out, find a way to make it happen.

There are no special people, just special minds and the mind is something we can sharpen through hard work.

You can be born in a fucking sewer and still be the baddest motherfucker on earth.

Get off your phones, computers, and shut the TV off. Don't let this fast-paced world dull your sharpest weapon, that weapon being your mind.

Pain unlocks a secret doorway in the mind, one that leads to both peak performance, and beautiful silence.

It's a lot more than mind over matter. It takes relentless self discipline to schedule suffering into your day, every day.

Don't worry about the elements around you and what's going on… You gotta get out there and get it.

True belief in yourself is the ultimate determining factor if you make it or not.

I swam underwater for 50 meters at a time and walked the length of the pool underwater, with a brick in each hand, all on a single breath.

The things that we decide to run from are the truth. When you make excuses, you're running from the truth.

It's very easy to neglect to train the most important thing -- the mind.

If you choose to do something, attack it. You can hate me, but there's one thing you can't say about me -- that I didn't attack it.
