Original artwork, not a still

Never Finished

David Goggins

I'm haunted by my future goals, not my past failures. I'm haunted by what I may still become. I'm haunted by my own continued thirst for evolution.

Behind the line

What it means

Our interpretation.

The repeated haunting looks forward rather than backward. Possibility, ambition and the wish to keep developing occupy the space that regret might otherwise take. The speaker describes an insistent concern with an unfinished self, without claiming that earlier failures are what drive it.
