"CEO and founder of Spartan, Joe De Sena reveals his 10 rules for building true resilience in individuals, parents, families, and maybe even the world. When adults do the work to build capable, tanacious, confident minds, their kids and families benefit in kind. The result is an abrupt end to the epidemics of insecurity, participation trophies, cell phone addiction, and low work ethic, and the beginning of a new wave of resilient families to permeate every community and neighborhood. Based on his work with millions of Spartan athletes, in his role as a warrior-style CEO, and as father of four, Joe De Sena's '10 Rules for Resilience: Mental Toughness for Families' is a straighforward guide to prioritizing tough stuff. Joe's ten rules are simple, but not easy. Rule 1: You Can't, Until you Can ; Rule 2: Earned, Not Given ; Rule 3 Commit to No Bullsh*t ; Rule 4: Live Your Values ; Rule 5: Fail Forward ; Rule 6: Dedicate to a Daily Routine ; Rule 7: Discipline Breeeds Responsibility ; Rule 8: Into the Wild ; Rule 9:Raw Courage ; Rule 10 Ready for Anything. We wronlgy think that when we struggle, we are at risk. The truth? We need difficult situations to grow, change, become strong, and prepare for one of the most satisfying and rewarding parts of the human experience: finding the strength to stand back up again after we fall."--Jacket.
