New York Times best-seller. Over five million copies sold
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare–poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world’s top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events, inspiring Outside magazine to name him the Fittest (Real) Man in America.
In Can’t Hurt Me, he shares his astonishing life story and reveals that most of us tap into only 40 percent of our capabilities. Goggins calls this The 40% Rule, and his story illuminates a path that anyone can follow to push past pain, demolish fear, and reach their full potential.
An annotated edition of Can’t Hurt Me, offering over two hours of bonus content featuring deeper insights and never-before-told stories shared by David. Not available in other formats.

This book should be assigned reading in high school. Mr. Goggins’ story of not only overcoming hardships but of surpassing them is so very inspiring. It teaches you how to live a better, more productive lifestyle and how not to get bogged down by bad circumstances. This man’s story is an inspiration to all who read it!

David Goggins is uniquely qualified to talk about mastering your mind. He’s been through so many extreme situations–from being physically abused by his father to running ultra-marathons to going through Navy Seal “Hell Week” multiple times–that he’s been forced to train his mind to deal with the pain inflicted on him and the pain he’s invited on himself. He doesn’t just have a high pain threshold, he has a way of welcoming discomfort; it’s how he knows he’s challenging himself. How much you take from “Can’t Hurt Me” will depend on your reasons for picking up the book in the first place. I’m a long-distance runner and occasional ultra-runner who heard about Goggins on a podcast and wanted to learn more about his ultras. As such, the racing was the most interesting section for me. He gets into ultra-running to raise money for a charity. Of course, Goggins finds the hardest ultra (Badwater) he can, so I was left wondering whether his primary motivation was charity or to test himself. Goggins’ life seems to be about these tests: how far he can run, whether he can finish SEAL training first in his class, how many pull-ups he can do. His approach to life is uncommon, but I think that reading about how hard he works is inspiring. The writer who helped Goggins organize and write “Can’t Hurt Me” did a great job. The book is roughly chronological, starting with Goggins’ rough childhood in Buffalo. He circles around to his family a little bit at the end but I felt the book needed more resolution with the author’s father and brother. In general, I get the sense that Goggins is so self-focused and so intense that he isn’t very good at sustaining relationships with other people–which is why I think you have to take his advice with a grain of salt. My own philosophy is that life is about finding balance if you have a family, so you could never be as “pedal to the metal” all the time as Goggins is. (For a great portrait of this, read Jesse Itzler’s “Living with a SEAL.) It’s tough to criticize a memoir without making judgy comments about its author. I think Goggins is amazing. His willpower is astonishing, and his accomplishments in the military and in running and strength exercises are commendable. But I came away from this book feeling like I’d never want to BE David Goggins. He seems to derive strength from confrontation, and he is a big believer in something called “taking souls,” which means breaking down opponents psychologically. I don’t have any interest in taking anyone’s soul. Plus I feel like Goggins purposely made things harder than they needed to be. He writes about how his first ultra led him to possible kidney damage because of his nutrition choices during the race, and he recounts this memory with a weird sort of pride. Of the few pictures in the book, a couple are of his mangled feet after an ultra and his mangled hands after a pull-up record attempt. Spend a few days reading about what is eaten during ultras. Buy a decent pair of running shoes. Why make things purposely harder than they need to be? The section on SEAL training is fascinating, as are Goggins’ memories of childhood and adolescence. He doesn’t write much about his military career overseas, but I have a feeling he’s not allowed to write about that. Overall, I think “Can’t Hurt Me” is a great introduction to David Goggins, sort of his origin story. Read this, then you can follow him a bit more knowledgeably and check out his interviews online.

Gostei da história do autor, por isso comprei o livro. Ele foi me apresentado pelo meu amigo. Recomendo lerem. Diria que é para ajudar a sair da mediocridade. Se você é brasileiro, compre também para treinar o inglês.

I have never in my life found so much motivation to better myself and “callous my mind” than after reading this book. The stories David tells are incredible demonstrations in how hard work really pays off, and I can’t wait to apply the challenges he offers on my life and the way I tackle shortcomings and obstacles. This book inspires you to be better.

very good book!

Despite his upbringing, shortcomings and that little voice in his head that told him to quit. It’s both astounding and profound to actually read that story of Mr.Goggins. I had only seen the videos and his first time on the Joe Rogan Podcast but that didn’t do it justice to what kind of special individual Mr.Goggins is, truly uncommon amongst some of the most uncommon. I would say simply by reading or listening to this book and doing the challenges that he gives to the reader at the end of the each chapter could truly change anyone’s life and show them how truly powerful we all are.
