After Eric Davis spent over 16 years in the military, including a decade in the SEAL teams, his family was more than used to his absence on deployments and secret missions that could obscure his whereabouts for months at a time. Without a father figure in his own life since the age of 15, Eric was desperate to maintain the bonds he'd fought so hard to forge when his children were young - particularly with his son, Jason, because he knew how difficult it was to face the challenge of becoming a man on one's own.

Are you able to set down a bag of chips, or a box of cookies if you tell yourself to? Do people at your workplace look up to you as a role model of strength? We answered no to both of those, too. You’re not alone. We all wish we could just tell ourselves to do something, and then our bodies would listen and we do it. But that’s not the case. It takes training and effort to have the self-discipline to be able to do that. The good news is that the training isn’t hard. It’s just repetition. Habit expert Paul Johnson has created a routine for you to follow to build self-discipline.

Publisher's Summary
From New York Times best-selling author and former Navy SEAL Brandon Webb comes a simple yet powerful five-step guide to transforming your life by making your fears work for you instead of against you.
Brandon Webb has run life-threatening missions in the world's worst trouble spots, whether that meant jumping out of airplanes, taking down hostile ships on the open sea, or rolling prisoners in the dead of night in the mountains of Afghanistan. As a Navy SEAL, he learned how to manage the natural impulse to panic in the face of terrifying situations. As media CEO and national television commentator, he has learned how to apply those same skills in civilian life.
Drawing on his experiences in combat and business, along with colorful anecdotes from his vast network of super-achiever friends, from astronauts to billionaires, Webb shows how people from all walks of life can stretch and transcend their boundaries and learn to use their fears as fuel to achieve more than they ever thought possible. "Fear can be a set of manacles, holding you prisoner", writes Webb. "Or it can be a slingshot, catapulting you on to greatness."
The key, says Webb, is not to fight fear or try to beat it back, but to embrace and harness it. In the process, rather than being your adversary, your fear becomes a secret weapon that allows you to triumph in even the most adverse situations. In Mastering Fear, Webb and his best-selling coauthor, John David Mann, break this transformation down into five practical steps, creating a must-listen manual for anyone looking for greater courage and mastery in their lives.
Critic Reviews
"My favorite part of this book is that Brandon doesn't teach you to conquer fear as if it will go away completely and forever. No, as a Navy Seal, he knows there's always an element of fear in the things we do. Instead, we master it, fully aware that it is coming and ready when it does. I wish someone gave me this book when I graduated from college." (Jon Acuff, author of Finish)
"Brandon’s book will help you conquer anything holding you back from being your best and most unafraid self. A life-changer!" (Betsy Morgan, former CEO, Huffington Post; former president, TheBlaze)
"Not only will this book provide you with a brilliantly simple plan for conquering your deepest fears, but it will also leave you with a burning desire to do it. What previously seemed impossible will suddenly appear entirely tangible." (Marina Khoroch, writer for Vogue.com)

slow start
It was a good audio book. I got it after finishing Extreme Ownership. I kept wondering "when will we get to the good stuff?" It started out slow and seemed like I personally was not going to get much out of it. About 25% through though the author broke things down and explained his system for working through and with your fears. It was enjoyable and I would definitely recommend it. If it starts off slow for you like it did for me just give it a chance and listen to the entire book before passing judgement.

Get off the sidelines
Honestly, this book was one of the best personal development books I have read. It gives you a motivational perspective on time and propels you to get into the game. One line that really resonated with me was “Don’t wait for the perfect version of yourself to come around before you take action.” Phenomenal! I also love the stories about his time at war and as a pilot.

Last book I read from this author ! promised!
I gave him a second try, after quick reading total focus, which I complained it was much more of a biografy & bragging how succesfull he was blabla.... instead of mastering or giving techniques, or getting you to practical point on mastering something....
and he did it again.....
plus, some of the parts are the same as the first book total focus.....again he stays too long explining battle stories and successfull trades which he made...instead of making you think about your fears or conquer them....
so totally not recommended.

A self help book by a warrior and business man
Most self help books a written by people who have not even run a lemonade stand or would be unable to fight there way out of a wet paper bag. This book in grounded the Author's dances with fear during fire fights in Afghanistan and multi million dollar business disasters and successes. It's that grounding that makes this book work so well. Great to realize fear tastes the same to everyone and it's how you chow down on it that makes you.

Okay, but...
Most of what’s in here is just common sense, but he does give some good strategies on managing fear. But he also goes down rabbit holes that take him off subject and make him sound elitist and condescending. Now that may be partly the narrator, but still, his words. I also wonder if Webb doesn’t understand that everyone isn’t, or wants to be, the type of person he is. I’ve known people like him and have read other books from those similar to him and they all have the same “gene” and that is that they’ll never be satisfied and are always looking for something bigger and better. How can one be truly happy living a life like that?

Kick in the a$$ even if you feel you dont need it
End to end useful tactics based on real examples, stories from all walks of Brandon's life (thus far) and extremely frank, honest and engaging. So many takeaways that I have started it again to take notes in the paperback I have also purchased for notation.
Even if you think you are killing it in your field of work, business or life this will make you stop, reassess and highlight areas that you may need to act upon now or in the near future.
Fantastic piece of work and a tool for those who are willing to be honest with themselves and 'let go of some coconuts' and take precise and measured step by step actions.

Excellent message and an easy listen.
This is my second Brandon Webb book and the same as the first, it did not disappoint. The narration was easy to listen to and understand. The books content was well written and for me it carried a solid message. As with the authors first book, this book also contained stories from the authors life experiences which made it both interesting but also keep it real. I will definitely be reading another of Brandon's books. Obviously not a book for everyone however, if you enjoy this style of self help/motivation/real life dealing with adversity mixed with some real life issues and stresses, I highly recommend you take the time to enjoy it yourself. Thank you.
