Pax discussed David Goggins and the “who’s gonna carry the boats mentality.” YHC has interpreted this as “someone has to do the hard work” but I also pointed out to the Pax that Goggins is on his third wife. So there are two questions each of us has to ask ourselves: “What’s my ‘boat’ and who’s gonna carry it?”
