So run like Goggins to be in a wheelchair in your senior years. Goggins has not much insight into training science. He knows how to push himself and others but he does so ignoring all knowledge there is and by that ruining his and the body of his clients.
There are more healthy ways to reach the same goals intelligent. I know some of his clients stories and he can be glad that he hasnt killed some by accident.
His knees are destroyed right now and he can only run in pain. Completely unnecessary if he would have aknowledged tapering, resting and taken a coach instead of playacting one.
If your constantly functionally overloading yourself in training you will destroy your body.
Sure you can reprogram yourself but most important aspect is intensifying training in a healthy way.. This will not only strenghten your body but your mind adapts automatically to the higher training load.
Instead of just pushing tell yourself before the session to not listen to your brain & feelings right now as its not a truth but just preprogrammed bias and reserve judgement for later, but during the run listen to your body and take warning signs serious. Knowledge is power to mental strenght not ignoring what your body is trying to tell you.

Good points and thanks for taking the time to share. I agree on balance and also knowing your body. For me I know there has been times when I quit way before I should have which is why this mindset has been helping my training. I also think that running properly and training ensures that your body holds up. I’ve been running for 30 years and my body is in good shape and knees are fine. Thanks again for a thoughtful comment and contribution to the topic.
