You say your motivation is david goggins but run your legs to the ground, how are you trying to achieve what he has accomplished and skip the rules to getting there?

grandotter-92

he himself emphasizes self-discipline, not knowing when to stop is a lack of discipline

grandotter-92

not to mention that he talked about how essential resting is for proper recovering and maintaining a balanced life

grandotter-92

And why would you be a psychopath because you love to run?

jadezenith-71

Cuz I can detach easily with anything , no matter how much that person or thing is important unless it's my family ok , and I ghost ppl out of nowhere , once I ghosted a guy just bcz I thought he has feelings for me and then msgd him again after 2 months , his reaction was like are you mad Or what ? Not just this if I like something I will get obsessed with it until I get it and once I have it , it's useless for me . That's psychotic behaviour
