I have 2 Audible audio books that are really helping me. Pure realism and really helpful ways to overcome life’s adversities of all kinds.
- Embrace the Suck by Brent Gleason
It’s written by an ex-Navy Seal.
“Gleeson shows you how to use pain as a pathway, reassess your values, remove temptation, build discipline, suffer with purpose, fail successfully, transform your mind, and achieve more of the goals you set”.
Warning: Lot’s of F bombs in it.
- Overcome by Jason Redman
Another ex-Navy Seal. Jason, at one point, was caught in a crossfire and barely survived being shot to pieces literally. Plus various emotional difficulties along the way. If had to pick only one of these two books, this would be my pick.
Both of these are extremely inspiring with tons of great advice and insights and of ways of dealing with adversities and crises whether physical, emotional, or mental.
As active addicts, we are all dealing with a serious life crisis. We need to “Get off the X” as Jason would say and he gives tons of insights of how to accomplish it.
