How to Master Your Fear Like a Navy SEAL – Featured Stories – Medium
Brandon Webb

The three of us are picking through the desert hardscrabble, collecting the packs another platoon stashed here earlier, when we hear a sound. We turn and look up the ravine toward the dirt road where we parked our truck a few minutes ago. A crowd of maybe 50 Afghan guys is standing up there, seven or eight yards away, looking down at us. A crowd of Afghan guys with guns. A crowd of Afghan guys with guns, who don’t look happy.

It’s early 2002, just a few months after 9/11, and we are in northeastern Afghanistan on a search-and-seizure operation, looking for bad guys. We wonder if maybe we just found some.

We wonder if maybe some just found us.

Now they’re moving closer.

That is very useful information. For the battlefield, and for the challenges of life.

Do not allow fear to control you. Instead, control your fears.

Self-hypnosis, meditation, the "power of positive thinking," etc. Self-talk. Affirmations.


Any one of several tools and methods, to focus the mind on the desired outcome.

Ok,but you,like most people,have the terms mixed up a little. "Special Forces" are ONLY people in the US Army that wear a Green Beret. SEALS,and all the other "Special Ops Forces" are "Special Operations Forces".

What makes this so confusing is that SOME SF people are also Special Operations Forces,like the guys in Delta Force.

BTW,I kinda vaugely remember the US Coast Guard announcing they now have a "Special Operations Force". I guess that's what you have to do these days to get a bite of the Special Operations budget.

Yeah, I saw that too about the Coast Guard too.

So, what about the article?  Useful?  Claptrap? :pondering:
