2 小时 4 分钟I was in Afghanistan in 2014 as a Navy SEAL.
We're in the middle of this gunfight, and a grenade came over the wall and it detonated.
And I'm waiting to either be shot by the enemy or I'm going to bleed to death.
And all that was running through my head was.
And that's the way I think people should look at their lives.
It's so interesting because I've never actually heard someone give that kind of advice before.
Mr.
Bullen is a former Navy SEAL turned master storyteller and content creator who uses his battlefield experiences and personal failures to inspire, educate, and help people overcome.
Challenges to achieve their goals.
My family were very successful people with Pulitzer Prizes, Ph.D.
and then there's me getting into street fights and about to get expelled.
But it took becoming a colossal failure to realize that if you want to fix this, you have to start with saying it's my fault and then do something about it.
But then fear becomes the thing keeping people from doing it.
And it's the very select number of people in this life say, I'm going to still do that thing that scares the out of me, that have the best and most fulfilling life.
And so I decided to become a Navy SEAL because it was only a really small percent that make it through the grueling, mentally torturing training.
And what's the similarities that you noticed between the people that made it?
Two words, it's.
But then I realized the reality of the job.
You kill people.
And I had really leaned into being as, like, alpha as I possibly could be.
