Marc F Dawson asked this question about Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds:
I understand his drive and callousing of his mind but is there anything he does that makes him happy? It seems as though he is obsessed with proving everyone including himself wrong.

He has addressed this misconception that he is not happy in multiple podcasts and interviews. The end results of the extremely hard journeys he has taken in his life brings him the happiness. Training every day, stretching for 2 hours ever day, taking up difficult jobs make him happy because they enable him to achieve spectacular results. He is doing all those things for the love of it. He loves to train and break physical barriers. But he loves sports for example and usually watches that on TV for a couple of hours while stretching every night.(less)
