Episode notes

While they're going through the school, formal classes, mostly it's practical exercises. So a little bit of education, boom, go into application. And if they fail, if they don't live up to those expectations of their instructors, what happens is we help with the recycles. Those individuals will come in and will do a series of exercises. Think of them as reps,. We'll tell the tale with that training to actually improve their performance.

Today we are joined by Dr. Rick Dietrich and Mr. Bob Jones of the U.S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School's Human Development Directorate (HDD). We open the discussion by talking about the Growth Mindset, challenges to performance and how SMs can work to self-improve. The Doctors mention how there will always be stress, but that the way forward for students is to seize what they can control (nutrition, PT, sleep etc) to help lay the mental groundwork for success. We also discuss how the SOCEP and HEAT programs assist our students in reaching their best performance throughout each of the Regimental Qualification Courses.
