Pain is a pathway -- You got dealt a bad hand-get over it -- Oh, and maybe your values are all wrong -- Taming temptation tiger -- If you ain't failin', you ain't tryin' -- Do something that sucks everyday -- Choose wisely what you suffer for -- Win more through discipline and accountability -- Modeling mindset and behavior for violent execution -- We're all going to die, so get off your ass and execute.

"During the brutal crucible of Navy SEAL training, instructors often tell students to "embrace the suck." This phrase conveys the one lesson that is vital for any SEAL hopeful to learn: lean into the suffering and get comfortable being very uncomfortable. In this powerful, no-nonsense guide, Navy SEAL combat veteran turned leadership expert Brent Gleeson teaches you how to transform every area of your life--the Navy SEAL way. Can anyone develop this level of resilience? Gleeson breaks it down to a Challenge-Commitment-Control mindset. He reveals how resilient people view difficulties as a Challenge, where obstacles and failures are opportunities for growth. Next, they have a strong emotional Commitment to their goals and are not easily distracted or deterred. Finally, resilient people focus their energy on the things within their Control, rather than fixating on factors they can't impact"--Amazon.com.
