Surpass Your Limits & The Art of Keep Going | The Great Victory Ep. 21 (with Omar Zabian) – Podcast #287

“The real victory isn’t winning—it’s continuing when quitting makes sense.” - Most people quit when it gets uncomfortable. This episode is about the art of not stopping.

In The Great Victory Ep. 21, Isra García and Omar Zabian explore what it really means to surpass your limits—not through motivation, but through persistence, self-challenge, love, and the willingness to keep going when everything inside wants to stop.

"Every challenge I created for myself existed because I was the limitation"

In this powerful episode of The Great Victory, Isra García sits down with Omar Zabian—brother, witness, and companion throughout four years of radical detachment—for one of the most complete reflections on persistence, self-challenge, gratitude, and what it truly means to win at life.

"You are unlimited, so be it."

Omar takes Isra back to the moments that shaped his inner compass: from growing up with scarcity and imagination, to defying limits others imposed, to enduring extreme physical and mental challenges—including triathlons, ultra-endurance feats, and long periods of total darkness.

Together, they explore:

• Why challenging yourself must always come before challenging others

• How persistence (“Go. Carry on.”) became Isra’s life mantra

• What happens when you face your mind in absolute darkness

• How suffering is inevitable—but suffering with pain is optional

• Why gratitude for being alive is the ultimate victory

Isra shares how losing his mind in darkness led him to clarity, peace, and unconditional love—allowing him to see his entire life as a masterpiece, not a mistake.
