Ex Navy SEAL Commander Mark Devine | From Calculators to (M4) Carbines

“It’s important that people take their own responsibility for mental toughness and resilience. If you’re not training yourself the worlds training you and guess what? The world wants you to be weak so don’t let that happen.”Mark Divine does not mince words.A former Navy SEAL Commander who saw 20 years of service.A successful author, serial entrepreneur and host of The Unbeatable Mind Podcast.In 1989 Mark was on a trajectory to becoming a professional desk jockey having obtained both his MBA and CPA. But The Call of The Warrior was too great and, nurtured through the teachings of SEIDO karate Grandmaster Tadashi Nakamura, Mark effectively traded in his calculator for a carbine automatic rifle.Why would one transition from comfortable number cruncher to a career where the only easy day was yesterday and a bad day could literally punch your ticket? What knowledge did Master Nakamura bestow upon Mark which not only gave him the mental edge as an aspiring SEAL; graduating as Honor Man of BUD/S (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL) Class number 170 (the notorious 26 week SEAL Qualification Training program) but also the keys to unlock a literally unbeatable mindset?!Aside from all of that EPIC stuff, I deep-dive into the methods behind the man. What I uncover challenges even my own beliefs as a ‘Lone Wolf’ entrepreneur. Show notesAll things Unbeatable Mind (Mark’s businesses, books, podcast and online courses): https://unbeatablemind.com/Background information on Tadashi Nakamura: Mark’s Karate/ZEN mindset instructor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tadashi_Nakamura_(martial_artist)If you enjoyed this episode of the DES podcast or are onboard with our mission of empowering more people to find and follow their extraordinary, more of the time, please consider subscribing to the fortnightly eNewsletter.
