Book review of Never Finished and 10 Inspiring David Goggins Quotes That Will Propel Your Career Forward"
"Push past your limits, embrace discomfort, and achieve your goals - no excues! That's the message I took away from David Goggins' "Never Finished" which I just finished listening to on Audible .
The book may not be for everyone, with Goggins' no-compromise attitude and no-excuses approach contrasting with the current sentiment. But I found it very refreshing, and it's packed full of valuable takeaways that are relevant to anyone in the tech industry, including the Salesforce ecosystem.
While listening to the book, I even managed to get my personal best lap time of Narrabeen Lagoon, which just goes to show the power of Goggins' mindset. If you're looking for a boost of motivation and a reminder of what's possible when you push yourself to the limit, this book is definitely worth a read or listen.
