What Is The Special Forces Really Like? | Gaz Banford, Simon Jeffries, Lindsay Bruce, Dean Stott

In this episode, we have four lessons from The Special Forces, taken from four separate guests that have appeared on the show.
Firstly, we listen to Gaz Banford, former Sergeant Major of the Special Boat Service, talk about the typical characteristics shown by people who pass selection and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.
Then, we hear Simon Jeffries, former Special Boat Service, discuss his misfire incident during selection, leading to him releasing the self made pressure and focusing on the moving average.
Lindsay Bruce, former Special Air Service, shares his experience of the gruelling selection process and how he recommends people to break things down into smaller chunks, rather than focusing on the end result.
Finally, we hear from Dean Stott, former Special Boat Service, who discusses his career ending injury and how he refocused onto the next chapter of his life in the private security world.
Expect to learn about what it takes to be in the Special Forces.
Expect to think differently about pressure.
Expect to change how you go about achieving your goals.
