Who better than a Navy Seal Eric Greitens to teach us resilience? Oh, and before he became a Seal, Greitens was a junior boxing champion, was chosen as a Rhodes scholar, picked up a Ph.D. from Oxford, and has worked as a humanitarian volunteer. In his newest book, Greitens treats us to a tour of encouragement through his letters to an old friend. He uses examples from philosophy, religion, and practical living to point the way to living life in a better way. He hits it out of the park. Note: Eric Greitens’ first book, The Heart and the Fist, is also – not to be missed.
