In this episode, we have four lessons from The Special Forces, taken from four separate guests that have appeared on the show.

Firstly, we listen to Gaz Banford, former Sergeant Major of the Special Boat Service, talk about the typical characteristics shown by people who pass selection and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. Episode #2

Then, we hear Simon Jeffries, former Special Boat Service, discuss his misfire incident during selection, leading to him releasing the self made pressure and focusing on the moving average. Episode #37

Lindsay Bruce, former Special Air Service, shares his experience of the gruelling selection process and how he recommends people to break things down into smaller chunks, rather than focusing on the end result. Episode #22

Finally, we hear from Dean Stott, former Special Boat Service, who discusses his career ending injury and how he refocused onto the next chapter of his life in the private security world. Episode #16

Expect to learn what it takes to be in the Special Forces.

Expect to think differently about pressure.

Expect to change how you go about achieving your goals.

99. 有图就有真相吗？什么让你无法知道事实的全部？

收听提示

1、真的是“有图有真相”吗？

2、如果没有摆拍或修改照片，是否拍到的就是真实呢？

3、纪录片追求真实，但为什么通过表演重现历史片段的拍法依然常见？
