In our daily lives, we all experience hunger in one way or another. But hunger isn’t just about food; it can also be about our passions, our goals, and our desires. So although hunger for food leads to energy through eating, hunger for goals can lead to success through perseverance.

It’s easy to get caught up in the routine of life and allow our energy to be consumed by things we don’t care about. The monotony of daily tasks can quickly drain us, leaving little energy for the things we truly want to achieve. This is where setting goals worth working for can make a huge difference. When we have a clear objective in mind, we can focus our energy towards it and work towards achieving it. Having a goal that’s worth it gives us purpose and a reason to stay hungry.

Take David Goggins, for example. After years of running 100-150 mile races, he discovered that 200-mile races were the new bar. So he set his sights on conquering MOAB 240, a brutal 240 mile race. He trained, tried, and failed in his first attempt, but he didn’t give up. He used everything he learned from his first attempt to crush it the next time around. In his mind, failing is just your first, second, or third attempt. David’s hunger and determination to achieve his goal allowed him to push through the difficult times and ultimately succeed.

Another example of staying hungry and rebounding from failure is Hinata from Haikyuu. After finding out that his rival was invited to a special training camp and he wasn’t, Hinata was determined to find another way to improve himself. He snuck into a different camp, but was only allowed to help as a ball boy. Despite not being able to actually play volleyball, he remained committed to learning something from the experience. Just a few weeks later, his determination paid off in crucial moments during one of the biggest tournaments of the year. 

In conclusion, managing your energy and staying hungry are essential for achieving your goals and living a fulfilling life. It’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day routine, but setting goals and having a clear objective in mind can help you focus your energy and work towards something meaningful. Find something that’s important to you and get after it.
