0:00 - Intro 
01:43 - How David Goggins LEARNS with ADHD
05:52 - What are you willing to sacrifice to find every bit of who you are as a human being?
08:17 -David CHOOSES to learn more 
12:31 - Teaching yourself how to truly focus 
28:34 -Lying and seeking attention. Brittany talks about ND meltdowns. 
34:30 - Do you think hardships are NEEDED to make the switch? David shows Self Awareness. 
35:43 - David is haunted by himself. Self awareness moment. 
37:43 - How are you able to be so hard? Self awareness BUT also trauma language. 
40:43 - David is FIGHTING himself. Could be healthy, could be unhealthy. 
41:46 - David starts showing his resentment of the “normal” people. I think this is unhealthy but COULD be healthy. Note later timestamps 
43:31 - David starts to show a concerning side. Has he gone to therapy?
47:01 - Humans only wanna show their good sides BUT David wants to show you the ugly, “the real side”. 
57:47 - David doesn’t think REAL life is pretty. Is he happy?
1:00:10  -The flaw in David’s ideas 
1:08:06 - David’s metaphor for MY CUPCAKE! Being trapped when you have the key 
1:09:42 - Andrew shares how Neuroscience plays into David’s work
1:11:38 - Brittany explains how the above timestamp proves Hedonism is NOT healthy.
1:14:23 - David says he WAS NOT blessed with a special brain BUT I think we’re all unique and that plays to different strengths 
1:18:57 - David tries to be normal BUT HE IS NOT. He is ignoring HOW his childhood impacted him while KNOWING it impacted him. 
1:22:35 - Finding your purpose. Finding yourself in the suffering. This is where I start to wonder if David TRULY faced his trauma or if he pushed it down so he could function 
1:30:15 - Needing conflict to grow and what happens when you don’t get it growing up. Is it okay to want a normal life? David seems to have resentments over “normal” people. Using Will Power healthy and unhealthy. 
1:43:34 -Clarifying “moralizing” something
1:44:10 -David sounds like he’s lying or MASKING something 
1:49:16 - THE MOST INTERESTING PART: Easy VS Hard. Doing the work is where the demons come in. DAVID GOGGINS HAS ISSUES WITH AVERAGE PEOPLE and it’s unhinged. 
1:52:40 -DAVID thinks SPENDING TIME WITH YOUR FAMILY IS BAD?! This sounds like trauma to me. 
1:57:32 - WHY DOES EVERYONE FORGET THAT MENTAL HEALTH IS REAL?!
2:02:20 - Interesting that David knows people have little WILL but He still resents them
2:05:10 -Will Power VS. Being A Whole Human Being 
2:07:33 - Bullying yourself vs. NOT
2:15:45 - Being self critical and knowing THE WHY
2:20:33 - I’m a fan of COPE. 
2:22:12 - ADHD people benefit from habits
2:23:54 - I TOTALLY FORGOT!! Explaining my ND breakdown 
2:34:17 - David has SOME KEY TOOLS. His unique message is about HOW HARD LIFE IS. He says he doesn’t have time to sleep. Is he SELF Harming? 
2:39:34 - Andrew asks about relationships. David, in my opinion, has unhealthy ideas about relationships because he’s afraid they’ll impact all that his built. 
2:49:21 - I think it’s fair that he wants to focus. I don’t think he’s a bad person but I do think he is traumatized. He doesn’t seem very calm or peaceful. 
2:54:44 - People NEED more direct conversations 
2:55:35 - David Goggins thinks he is vulnerable but is he? 
2:58:01 - David said he CONQUERED his demons 
3:01:25 - David still sounds traumatized to me. He says “No one can motivate me”
