The Mind Gentlemen is a powerful, powerful thing. It can be used as a tremendous source of good or a tremendous source of destruction in your life.

And the way that you choose to train it and use it could quite literally be the only thing keeping you from accomplishing your greatest ambitions.

Today I'm joined by former Navy SEAL Ultra Runner Endurance Athlete Wildland firefighter and all-around badass David Goggins.

We talk about staring down adversity, using challenges as the fuel to propel yourself forward.

The sacrifices you'll need to make in order to be successful, race issues and political correctness in America and how you can master your mind and defy the odds.

You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest. Embrace your fears and boldly charge your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time. Every time. You are not easily deterred and defeated.

Rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life. This is who you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day and after all is said and done, you can call yourself a man.

Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Mickler and I am the host and the founder of this podcast and this movement, the Order of Man. I want to welcome you. I'm glad you're here.

We need more men. Engage in this fight. Engage in this battle. And make no mistake. It is a battle. I don't know that there's necessarily an enemy out there, but if we approach our life, whether that's the life we have with our family, outside in our business, in our communities, if we approach it as a battle, knowing that we need to do all that we can to succeed, to improve, to excel.

And to help those under our care, do the same. I think we're on the right track. And that's what we're all about here guys is we're giving you the tools, the guidance, the resources, the direction, the accountability, of course, of course, in this podcast, specifically the conversations, the you need to excel to improve your life and to level up and to become more of the man that you are meant to be.

Guys, we've had an incredible lineup as you're well aware. If you've been with us for any amount of time, we had Chris Hogan on a couple of weeks ago last week, we had UFC,

Bantamweight Champion TJ Dillesha on the podcast. And then this week, of course, the legend, the one and only Mr. David Goggins, I had the opportunity to sit down with him at the end of last week. And I wanted to get this out to you as soon as possible, because it was, it was one of the most inspiring conversations that I've ever had. So I'm going to get into that here in a minute and introduce you to David as if you actually need an introduction. But before I do, let me just share something with you really, really quickly. It's our sponsors and our friends over at OriginMakes.

Now, if you guys don't know who these guys are, maybe you've been living under a rock or maybe you just haven't listened to the podcast and I can certainly understand that as well. But these, these guys are making lifestyle apparel, they're making Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Gis and rash guards and training equipment and everything about it is 100% made in America. That is one of the things I like most about this company, this organization is that they are doing it right. So check it out. And also, just based on what you guys have told me.

And the feedback I've received, you're really liking the joint warfare for the joints, the super krill, Jaco's discipline and their protein supplement, which is called mulk.

Again, those supplements are all partnered up with Jaco through origin. And if you head to OriginMane as in the state main origin main.com and use the code order or our DER at checkout, you will get a discount on all of the nutritional lineup and any of the lifestyle apparel and

Jiu Jitsu training gear and equipment. And I think you're going to be pleasantly, maybe not pleasantly surprised, but I think you're going to be happy with the quality and the story behind what the guys over at origin are doing.

Again, origin main.com and then use the code order or our DER at checkout. You can do that after the show. But for now, I just want to jump right into this thing because like I said, I've got David Goggins on. I don't think many of you need an introduction to who this individual is.

Suffice it to say that David is one of the most insane human beings on the planet. And he's somebody I've respected and been extremely inspired by over the past couple of years.

We've all watched his videos. Most of us have probably read or at least listen to his latest book. But you know, having this opportunity to sit down face to face with him.

Only increased my level of respect for what he's gone through the odds that he's overcome the incredible work that he's been able to accomplish despite those odds being stacked against him. So, oh, and one more thing before I get to it. If you don't like language, this probably isn't the show for you. I didn't ask David to pull back or change the way that he communicates or to pull any punches. So again, if you've got a problem with language, this probably isn't the right show for you as this one.

Has some language. So if that bothers you or you have little young ears listening, I would encourage you to press stop right now. Turn this one off and get to it later. If you can or you choose to just want to make sure I make that disclaimer. So, set this one on repeat guys.

You're going to enjoy this show. It's going to inspire you. In fact, I would just encourage you to listen to this as you're running as you're working out because you're going to go that much harder.
