What I Am Listening To

Or maybe this should be titled What I Am Reading? I recently finished listening to the audiobook version of David Goggins’ Cant Hurt Me, while at the same time reading sections from the book itself. Audiobooks are something I had resisted engaging with, but recently have embraced as a worthy way to become exposed to books I probably would not have had time to read. I will write about others that have made a significant impact, but Can’t Hurt Me is unique. Not only a reading of the text of the book, it includes sections that are a discussion between Goggins and narrator Adam Skolnick, who Goggins credits with helping him write the book. It is these discussions that elevate this to more than an audiobook. They not only explain certain sections of Goggins’ journey, they also serve to provide moments of inspiration to the listener, to really feel and appreciate the change Goggins went through, and that he believes we all can achieve.
