A speaker argues that mental toughness comes from doing hard things you hate, not from motivation. He uses running as mental conditioning to prepare for life's crises, claiming the younger generation quits too easily and lacks the self-discipline required for greatness.
Most of this generation quits the second they get talked to. You did this wrong, you did this wrong. It's so easy to be great nowadays. Most people are weak. This is a softened generation. So if you have any mental toughness, any ability, if you have any fraction of self-discipline, the ability to not want to do it but still do it, It wasn't until I changed that mentality that I became somebody. If you can get through to doing things that you hate to do, on the other side is greatness. That's what people don't understand. By me running, I am callous in my mind. I'm not training for a race. I'm training for life. I'm training for the time when I get that 2 o'clock in the morning call that my mom is dead or something happens tragic in life. I don't fall apart.
