How to Build Willpower | David Goggins & Dr. Andrew Huberman

Ғылым және технология

David Goggins and Dr. Andrew Huberman discuss the neuroscience of willpower and how pushing through challenges and doing what you don't want to do can strengthen a brain area known as the anterior midcingulate cortex.
David Goggins is a retired Navy SEAL, highly accomplished ultramarathoner, best-selling author, and influential public speaker. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab podcast.

    ​@ally2ava There's always one lmao. He has explained and responded to this countless times, including in this podcast episode. Listen to those more so than my own framing, but basically...Excessive attention to filtering himself would subtract from and thus effectively cheapen the message because THAT would inhibit vocalization of the raw truth of the cost and process behind that which the podcast and inquiry centers on here. Focus is on the reality and relaying that, full stop. Interjecting a priority of 'OK, but no curse words!' - would potentially compromise that to some (slight or more) degree. No matter how infinitesimal the degree, Goggins is not the type to compromise the truth of his experience, process, path, associated cost of that ("what it took/takes"), etc. and this ironically is _augmented_ by the fact he wants it to be as helpful to others as practically possible and, probabilistically, a key component to ensuring that is to AVOID filtering the raw signal from its source so to speak. Anyway, difficult to explain off the cuff in text but again he himself has addressed this so many, many times. Besides, with all the actual threats, travesties, harms and everything we bring upon ourselves and which external life exposes us to, I can never understand why vocal symbols like curse _words_ are allegedly so 'heinous' to some people. Like, c'mon How about you demonstrate something like he has and communicate it better without feeling like you're compromising integrity and axiological emphasis of what is being expressed 👌🏼

    I find that practicing mindfulness to turn the sucky stuff into a playful creative Joy eventually makes the crappy stuff less than crappy and sometimes it can become fun. Adding this additional mindful layer can really create profound healing results an improvements in the process of becoming whole and healthy. We can change our emotional relationship to almost anything with consistent practice of the right combined body and mind techniques

    By far one of your best podcasts, in my modest opinion. What separates David from the crowd is he is REAL - truth bombs exploding everywhere. As a 59 year old single mom who suffers from chronic pain (car accident) with four grown children, his words truly hit home. I get out of bed every damn morning at 6:15 am and go to my day job even though I don't truly enjoy it, but it pays our bills. I come home, shop, cook healthy meals, workout a little, walk my dog, do some more chores then hit the bed early so I can get up, rinse and repeat. I enjoy my weekends with friends and family but most of my time is spent doing. I have been like this my entire life - always just putting one foot in front of the other, day by day. Thanks Andrew.

    This is amazing, to hear about the anterior mid-cingulate cortex. I suffered with severe depression for a few years after my parent’s death , desperate, a good friend of mine told me, you have to do exactly the opposite of what your brain (negative voice), is telling you to do. And so, I began doing it, the opposite: getting out of my bed, going outside, working out, working, eating healthy enough, spending time with people… without even noticing, a few months later , I was slowly going back to being myself. Without medication 💊 I still feel the sadness that caused my depression but decided to go live life . Great episode . Digging deeper with the footnotes. I am not going back to depression .

    My eyes welled up a little bit listening to this. Most of my 50 year life has been about the avoidance of doing the things that I *need* to do, but don't want to. I instead had settled snugly into my comfort zone: alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, video games, etc It has only been in recent years that I've learned to understand that, for a better life, you *must* get comfortable doing uncomfortable things. To learn a new skill takes practice. And 'willpower' is simply just a skill. So practice it and it will get better. Edit: *THESE* are the things we should be teaching our children. Inflation keeps us too busy to do so, and our education system is little more than an indoctrination system. Combine the two and it's little wonder we are churning out so many depressed, medicated, fat, no-purpose adults.

    this is very key information and I think that self discipline is the ground work to success but personally I think that you should still try to enjoy the hard things you do every day as much as you can to maintain a positive mental frame work. Because lets be real, even if you try to enjoy the hard things you're still not actually going to truly enjoy them. I guess all im trying to say is that if you want to add more suck into your life for extra will power do it by adding in additional things that you dont want to do or by physically making the tasks you currently do harder, not by restructuring your mental frame work to hate every single hard thing you do during the day. try your hardest to love and enjoy every single thing you do, and once you do love everything you do take that as the indicator to increase the difficulty. progressively over load and stay hard.

Neurodivergent people are all different and not every person fits in your box.

    I got lost in the bush at night recently. I knew I was going to get lost, but the mission was too important not to take the risk. I had 3 torches, but you go 5 metres your off track where there is no track and you are lost. Pretty soon you're wondering if you're going to be spending the night wandering around, you won't be sleeping. Maybe you'll curl up in a hollow tree to avoid all the insects crawling all over you, but you'll be freezing. All you can see/feel is the slope of the land, the rest is enclosed by thick scrub with vision not nore than 1-2 metres. It's almost suffocating, you can't escape, panic threatens to descend. Turn the torches off it is total blackness, leave them on it's just the enclosed scrub reflecting back at you. Instinctual navigation, willpower and calmness is the only thing that's going to get you out of there. Backtrack, go forward, backtrack, mark a trail, follow your feelings and remember last time you did this you got out and eventually you will regain that absolute sense of relief when you discover the main trail again. I really need to remember to plan better and not to get lost in the first place, but if I do I can deal with the fear, stay rational and push through.

    Haven’t finished the full episode yet but did listen to this portion and so far it’s the best part. As someone who went through a bad case of shingles then cancer what he saying is understood completely. When you have those things you can’t do what you’re told partially or one day not the other. You do exactly what you’re supposed to or advised to get past these diseases and then what you’re advised to never have to go through them again. Your choices are either A) do what’s needed to be healthy - diet, exercise, lifestyle or B) go through this again in the future. As he said there’s no motivation, self discipline, etc. it’s just donut or don’t. Fail or not. 🎯

I am coming to understand that societal conditioning and my own perceptions of life has erroneously formed these opinions. this gives me hope that, more than the accomplishments, is that there is physical proof in the brain that doing difficult things actually works! It’s not just powering through in life. We don’t have to believe that we’re lazy or useless or less than. We’re not doomed to stay in our thoughts and/ or current state! We now know that it is likened to a muscle that needs to be worked and that it takes time to build this! Thank you both for this truth that all of humanity can benefit!

    When I was a teenager I had an eating disorder. I’m certainly not endorsing an eating disorder, but it’s fascinating because my will to resist eating for days on end no doubt activated my anterior mid singular cortex. This experience has in part helped to shape and form the self-discipline I developed to achieve things in life. As I grow older and seek to control other things in my life as an adult, the first thing I do is control my food intake - this will jump start my overall self control. I’m sure there’s a study or paper that digs into behaviors like this, but as a human living with this experience, it becomes a philosophical pursuit: like anything in life, we all have these drives, and they can be used to help us or harm us, or it can be balanced with time and maturity. Seriously Interesting 🧐

That is really helping me achieving my goals, both focus and will power have increased through . Whatever u wanna increase , just do that thing , it flourishes with time

    It’s counterintuitive, but I’m happiest in my life when I’m consistently doing things that I don’t want to do. Lately I’ve gravitated towards the familiarity of comfort and I’ve been miserable, in spite of making more money than I ever have, and being able to afford some of the things I always wanted. I think back when I was a broke college student working out over 1 hr a day and actively doing things I hate (reading fiction books, waking up early, etc) I felt untouchable and a profound sense of self accomplishment. Back to the grind.
