Publisher's summary

This is not a self-help book. It’s a wake-up call!

Can’t Hurt Me, David Goggins’ smash hit memoir, demonstrated how much untapped ability we all have but was merely an introduction to the power of the mind. In Never Finished, Goggins takes you inside his Mental Lab, where he developed the philosophy, psychology, and strategies that enabled him to learn that what he thought was his limit was only his beginning and that the quest for greatness is unending.

The stories and lessons in this raw, revealing, unflinching memoir offer the listener a blueprint they can use to climb from the bottom of the barrel into a whole new stratosphere that once seemed unattainable. Whether you feel off-course in life, are looking to maximize your potential or drain your soul to break through your so-called glass ceiling, this is the only book you will ever need.

An annotated edition of Never Finished, offering over three hours of bonus content featuring deeper insights and never-before-told stories shared by David. Not available in other formats.

Critic reviews

"There are levels to mental strength, and the undisputed gold standard is my friend David Goggins. The combination of the superhuman spectacle of his accomplishments and the immense gravity of his words serves as one of the most potent motivational drugs that exist on God’s green earth. He’s a man who came from a humble and troubled childhood and, through the force of sheer will, forged himself into one of the hardest motherf--kers that’s ever lived. I believe there are people that are put here to elevate our expectations and redefine what’s possible for the rest of us, and David Goggins is the best example of that idea that I’ve ever come across in my life."—Joe Rogan

Did not disappoint

I waited years for this book. I listened to Can't Hurt Me like 10 times, mostly while running or working out. That finally stopped benefitting me so I just wished for the next book instead. The only book I've ever preordered. Finished it in 3 days despite trying to savor it. And these days it's hard to find a book that grips me. I can see myself listening to this several times as well. I appreciated the next level of nuance and maturity (I'm also in my 40s) here. Thanks David. Your books have helped me so much. Your influence and gift is truly unique and important. I hope to keep following you for a long time. Oh and I'm a therapist haha.

Just brutal

Goggins adds details to his life from his first book and it’s just brutal…His capacity to keep going, Never Finished. There’s always more. Fascination is a key to dream for the impossible
