“Adopting an Unstoppable Mindset means living a life where everything that you face is an opportunity to gain more pleasure—pleasure from learning, from getting stronger, from conquering obstacles, from doing things that have not been done before, from serving and helping others. To live that life, you must embrace a few simple mindset beliefs: we are imperfect, obstacles are opportunities, and we always have the final say in what we decide to do.
An Unstoppable Mindset enables you to tap into the power of your mind to make the choices that move you closer to the success you seek. Unstoppable Mindset is not just a step-by-step guide to help you chart your own course to success, but also a repository of inspiration with which to face and overcome fear along the way. Use this book as your guide to help you chart your course for new, bold destinations.
You are taking action by reading this book, and you are planning a course to change your life in all kinds of positive ways by coming to the realization that you are more capable than you know and you have untold power you have yet to apply. Navy SEAL Teams are made up of the smallest teams, each called a swim pair—two people—two swim buddies. I am now your swim buddy. I am here to help you activate your potential. I cannot wait to watch you soar. The world needs you at your best. Let’s link arms, enter the water, and go build an Unstoppable Mindset!”
~ Alden Mills from Unstoppable Mindset
I love Alden Mills. I’m not sure how we connected but I’m very happy we did.
I read his first book, Be Unstoppable, years ago. I read it by myself first, then I read it with Emerson. It’s FANTASTIC. (Alden wrote it for his four boys. Your kids will love it!) (NEGU!)
Then I read his second book Unstoppable Teams and we even produced a class on it with Alden called Unstoppable Teams 101. (Check it out!)
So, when he told me he was writing this book and asked me if I’d write a little blurb for him, I told him: “ABSOLUTELY!”
Here’s the blurb I wrote that happens to be on the back cover of the book: “In Unstoppable Mindset, Alden Mills tells us that we are more powerful than we realize, then gives us a practical, step-by-step guide to activate our Heroic potential. I highly recommend this book for everyone looking to forge the mindset we need to make a difference in the world.”
(That’s a pretty good overview if I say so myself. (Hah!))
The book is PACKED with great stories about (and Big Ideas from!) his Navy SEAL training days and his time as a Navy SEAL Platoon Commander along with great stories/Ideas from his entrepreneurial days as the Founder/CEO of an Inc. 500 fastest growing company AND as a devoted father of four boys.
I’m excited to share a few of my favorite Ideas so let’s jump straight in!
P.S. As I read this book, I thought of wisdom from another dear friend who happens to be another former Navy SEAL, Mark Divine. Mark’s book Unbeatable Mind is one of my all-time favorite mental toughness books. Check out those Notes plus our Notes on The Way of the SEAL and Staring Down the Wolf.
