“I run every single morning. That’s because that’s the one thing I hate to do more than anything in the world” — David Goggins, an ultramarathon runner and triathlete.

I wonder whether people who worship him realize the all-too-common pattern of self-abuse and hate in our culture? A retired US military, the man is still at war 24/7.

I, too, run every single morning. That’s because I love running. I also work every day because I love my work.

Love vs hate? Which one do you choose every single morning?
