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.

Buy this book. Period.
I cannot recommend this enough. Simple, concise, and to the point. I rarely write reviews for books but God Damn! This one was something else.
Decide, rehearse, let go, take the jump and give it all meaning with a higher purpose.
The only book you’ll need on fear. Buy this book and go do that thing you’re afraid to do!
Don’t overcome fear, USE IT!!!

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.

Surprisingly Excellent!
Surprisingly excellent. I say surprisingly as there's a shed ton of former special forces guys cashing in on the self help leadership market and it's easy to be cynical about the content at times. However, this not overly long book really hit the mark for me in devising an effective approach to overcoming fears and I'd not hesitate to revisit this book repeatedly to reinforce the lessons conveyed.
