Warrior Grunt, Part 2

Finished the book last night.  I like what is presented.  First, there is the narrative of what someone needs to do to succeed as a warrior.  There is basic information to be mastered, tips on physical prowess and training, and the need of mental toughness.  The remainder of the book then lays out practical ways and means to achieve the mental toughness.


I have found centering to be of particular value to me personally.  The volume is lean, about 80 pages, but the material is a summation of some of the best that I have seen in the area of Warrior Prep, whether for the military, martial arts, or law enforcement.


I would recommend it for the hands of any young man or woman contemplating a commitment of military service.  The authors are right that it would translate easily into law enforcement academy prep as well.


For me, as a pastor, the idea of mental toughness, the need of mental toughness to be a healer in a world of sin is paramount.  We each carry a burden, bear the cross of our own situations.  God lays those burdens upon us so that we MUST depend upon Him.  This book, and the website, www.mindsighting.com, catalogue for us the skills and resources that God has built into humanity to live the life given to us to our best.
