Jordan Peterson's Twelve Rules for Life meets Jocko Willink and Leif Babin's Extreme Ownership in this tough-love leadership book from a Navy SEAL and rising star in Republican politics.In 2012, on his third tour of duty, an improvised explosive device left Dan Crenshaw's right eye destroyed and his left blinded. Only through the careful hand of his surgeons, and what doctors called a miracle, did Crenshaw's left eye recover partial vision. And yet, he persevered, completing two more deployments. Why? There are certain stories we tell ourselves about the hardships we face—we can become paralyzed by adversity or we can adapt and overcome. We can be fragile or we can find our fortitude. Crenshaw delivers a set of lessons to help you do just that.Most people's everyday challenges aren't as extreme as surviving combat, and yet our society is more fragile than ever: exploding with outrage, drowning in microaggressions, and devolving into divisive mob politics. The American spirit—long characterized by grit and fortitude—is unraveling. We must fix it.That's exactly what Crenshaw accomplishes with Fortitude. This book isn't about the problem, it's about the solution. And that solution begins with each and every one of us. We must all lighten up, toughen up, and begin treating our fellow Americans with respect and grace.Fortitude is a no-nonsense advice book for finding the strength to deal with everything from menial daily frustrations to truly difficult challenges. More than that, it is a roadmap for a more resilient American culture. With meditations on perseverance, failure, and finding much-needed heroes, the book is the antidote for a prevailing "safety culture" of trigger warnings and safe spaces. Interspersed with lessons from history and psychology is Crenshaw's own story of how an average American kid from the Houston suburbs went from war zones to the halls of Congress—and managed to navigate his path with a sense of humor and an even greater sense that, no matter what anyone else around us says or does, we are in control of our own destiny.

My title is one of the elements the author lists near the end of this book in a portion called American ethos. Be a 'victor and not a victim' Outstanding list of guiding beliefs that we may want to follow.The book itself contains many aspects of America today including the manner in which we, as a country, came to the point we are at today. It also includes portions of his SEAL training ...BUDS....and the manner in which that affected his life. But, he also states how important it was to be raised with a 'work hard' ethic and make his own decisions from an early age. So, a cumulative effect for him.A couple of the portions that were exemplary for me....One was the explanation of the people in Afghanistan and that cold, hard look in their eyes. Just imagine living in a country that has had war for over 3000 years...He does discuss the IED that led to the long road back to returning to a SEAL team... This portion was so poignant to read as he described his journey from the explosion to his recovery...Believe....despite what the doctors tell you...That belief was instilled at an early age when his mom had cancer for so many years...Never complain....hold true to your beliefs. This was a foundation for his exemplary time as a SEAL.As for the current state of America, the 'outrage culture' is described in detail. This part afforded me a much greater understanding of what is going on in our country these days. Yes, we all know someone who engages in this type of behavior on Facebook or other social media but the author explains the reasons these people are taking part in it. And, as he also mentions the fact that mainstream media is polarized. Objective journalism versus opinion journalismOne quote that applies to the outrage culture 'A culture characterized by self pity, indulgence, outrage and resentment is a culture that will fall apart'. He also states that culture should be 'grit, discipline and self-reliance'. For me, this is the difference we are experiencing as a nation.As one might expect, leadership is covered in many chapters. The reader will be able to distinguish the traits of a good leader versus one 'not so good'....Paraphrasing a few other quotes from his book: Challenges are also important in our lives...Happiness is ours to pursue....You have control over your thoughts. We, as individuals need to care for our family, our friends, our community and our country.' If not me, then who"? Every single one of us can do something to help others...it may seem small to us but may be a life saving moment to them.A truly outstanding book as it covers a lot of topics and footnotes are at the end of each chapter. A remarkable read for me.Bravo Zulu to the author with heartfelt appreciation for your service to the United States of America.Most highly recommended.
