Description


Deliberate Discomfort follows the journey of Jason Van Camp, a new Green Beret commander taking over a team of combat-hardened Special Forces veterans before leading them into combat. This true story tells firsthand the intense, traumatic battles these warriors fought and won, sharing lessons learned from those incredible challenges. A cadre of scientists further break down each experience, translating them into digestible and relatable action items, allowing the reader to apply them to their own lives. Deliberate Discomfort is the ultimate book on leadership and self-improvement, depicting how these warriors found a way to win under incredible odds with never-quit attitudes. The authors don t just tell you how to thrive under pressure; they show you how, in heart-racing, first-person narratives. Read Medal of Honor recipient Leroy Petry's true account of grabbing an enemy grenade in Afghanistan and throwing it, saving the lives of his fellow soldiers but losing his hand in the process. Hear what fellow Medal of Honor recipient Florent Groberg was thinking as he tackled a suicide bomber. Feel what Marine Joey Jones felt as he was flying through the air, weightless, after stepping on the IED that would take both his legs. And most importantly, experience what Jason learned about leadership and embracing discomfort from their adversities.
