A Navy SEAL veteran’s proven, battle-tested guide for developing grit and resilience, overcoming obstacles, and living life to the fullest.

What does it take to set a goal or have a dream, and then actually achieve it? What does it take to turn fear and stress into foresight, motivation, and action? It takes GUTS. No one knows this better than decorated Navy SEAL veteran Brian “Iron Ed” Hiner. During more than 20 years of service, Hiner witnessed the paralyzing power of fear firsthand—not just on the battlefield but in every aspect of our lives. He also learned that it’s possible to overcome those fears and turn negative self-doubt into positive accomplishments. Even more, he knows that anyone can do it—if you have GUTS.

It’s like a personal boot camp for retraining the brain, breaking bad habits and thought patterns, taking risks and turning apathy into action. Whether it’s starting a business or changing careers, leading a team or getting fit, this book supplies all the basic training you need to change your relationship with fear, thrive in adversity, develop resilience, and accomplish your greatest goals. It doesn’t take a miracle—it takes GUTS.
