Book notes: Can't hurt me by David Goggins

High level summary Nothing can stop someone who don’t allow to be stopped The accountability mirror concept The cookie jar concept: split bigger objective into smaller ones and each achievement will be a cookie The 40%/60% rule: When you cannot take it anymore, you are at your 40%, you still have a lot to go… Battle against yourself, not against others It is a life-long mindset, not just a race Push your limits in small percentages, maybe 10% each week of your previous limit Stretching is very important.

Book notes: Permanent record by Edward Snowden

title Permanent Record author Edward Snowden links Goodreads personal rating 9⁄10 Personal comments I found the book a delight. It reminded me my own experience growing since we have so many similarities. I also dismantled things, I also lived up internet on the 90’s on bulletin boards and cracking groups.
