I know everybody here gets it you like question like a million fucking times
like what do I need to do to prefer four buds you know what we need to do to do
this what do I need to do you know we'll work on my swim so work on my
you-know-what and it gets like overwhelming you know like every other
email is or Instagram message or Facebook is what do I do to go to buds
what do I do the little bud so what's the start with wizard remember the Stu
Smith book yeah I know Suze there's a great dude you know Stu is one of the
greatest dudes out I'm really glad that I did this before I went in because I
was 23 so there was a little more mature to think through the potential for
failure and floating around on a gray ghetto in the middle of the ocean which
I absolutely didn't want to do so I decided that that's actually a pretty
tough routine if you look at that course I mean I think it was like six months
long at least three months long and it was six months long I think and I said
well I'm gonna do this every single day to the absolute T there's not even a
short cuts not on a single rep not a single exercise there will be no excuses
whatsoever so that I could sort of check myself to see if I felt like I was gonna
be able to carry through on you know and maintain that kind of a marathon which I
knew was gonna be in front of me going to budge and I said if I did if I
skipped anything I will not enlist in the Navy and I went through the product
I went through that whole thing twice and after that I was fairly confident
that I was going to be able to complete it I think that you have to present you
have to train and test yourself mentally because it's a mental game I mean now
it's a mental game my favorite guys that my favorite guys that were in my class
that made it through they were the ones that performed technically the worst
because shit man you gotta love the underdog guy that that got it gets his
ass kicked and comes back for anyone it's true so amen
that's not my advice I give and I used to I used to answer them and I long
email responses and would try and break it down psychologically and all this
stuff and we are a motivational speaker I do have that tendency I do have that
tendency but what I believe now is the one simple thing I used to you know and
then for a while I got annoyed with it was like just don't quit right you sent
this simple but now what I believe is the number one thing you can do is when
you show up there is not do anything for yourself you can't when you walk into a
PT or cleaning a room or when you afterwards and the guys dragging his
butt right and and Rob you talked about on the show one guy will be high one guy
will be low and hang out with the high guys will take the guys with low and the
low guys just be selfless because that's what this is all about it's about
putting the team ahead of self and so if you start in with the selfless attitude
that my main thing is to make sure his shits squared away he's my swim buddy
his boots are dialed in his socks then it starts that train rolling and you
jump the gun and you stop being so self centered in your own mind to make it
that it's about someone else which is what the teams are about and as a whole
if people ask me that question and I thought I always had an answer for it
now as we get older they're always like there's always changes of course but I
think one thing for the guys who make it is like your sense of humor needs to be
able to change daily and when you go in there you need to be kind of an open
book ready for anything right and think of the back of your head like there's no
other place on plants we'll be right fucking now all right and there is no
other there is nothing else on whatever comes
down the pike I'm supposed to be going through it and blood training is
supposed to suck someone when they stop I'm thinking man you're not bored with
of course we're glad for it to end but you won in your head you wanna tell you
a man and this making the chow all right yeah and uh I had those guys in my class
two dudes all yoked up man worried like oh god what a seal looks like right
there that's what it looks like on the appointment right you know what we look
like when we graduate right and then bones yeah and I think there's two kinds
of guys there's those guys who want to you can study the program like you want
to know what ahead of time it's coming down the pipe so you can test yourself
you ready and then there's those of us that's the adventure part I got I think
I can pretty much handle anything man I want I like to take it on the chin in
the beginning oh yeah and push through that and then those those of us that in
our leadership positions in Excel and we follow those guys and then there's guys
like me like man I wanted to prove to everybody that I was worth having around
because I could the good feeling in most spots to help push and because I have
any special skills right you know what did you do what did you do what Rob what
did you do what you know and it's like just fucking do it just go go do it wake
up supposed to suck right we watched those videos in the shit this is we were
talking about this here today we're watching Navy SEALs and it was the
zodiac part like that's the fucking thing that got me into this and that's
the thing that sucks the worst and it truly is really just so excited for
whatever comes down the pipe because you know I know this son of a bitches
toughest fuck and if I said you know I give motivational speeches and stuff and
always I'll talk to like middle school kids high school kids college kids now I
would say I want to be a Navy SEAL I'm preparing for what should I do to
prepare for it I've said it before tonight and I'll answer their question
with a question what are you do to prepare them they say the same thing
I'm taking cold showers every day just to get ready I'm like that it's horrible
knock it off and then they'll run with a pack in the sand why is that horrible
I'm like well if I told you 30 days from now I'm gonna kick you in the nuts as
hard as I can and to get ready for it your best friend kicks you in the nuts
every single day guess what he's gonna fucking suck when I do it so just
embrace it when it happens you can only imagine what's gonna fill
it so yeah in order to be a Navy SEAL taking warm showers that's it no matter
what make the stoutest home it sucks get the fuck up you're gonna get plenty of
that beatdown bullshit there don't do that just keep
the boots off and I'm gonna crush you in 30 days embrace it
and don't take anything personal no matter why one of the things I tell
people that get me to check out in town it's like hey my job starts on H as a
great question man I should have gone first one yeah cuz I was gonna say that
too but yes Fogg the greatest part is just that damn unique characteristics I
mean we've got gangbangers and fucking bankers sons and Oprah billionaires
sucking it up together on the CTT we just went through to the decon shower
next to me is a gangbanger from Denver over here is got a English Lit degree
from Clemson over here is a guy from Butte Montana you know I'm a college
dropout from Boca Raton Florida dude I showed up I was 19 and like 19
like the second you know what are the coolest
I love that we're going through hell we thought we're Wednesday something hell
we're at the pool and we have a chance I know they were doing on purpose we have
a chance to go into the locker room and take a warm shower warm shower every
motherfuckers that not I'm not doing it yeah I'm not getting warm I'll get back
in the cold I'm not fucking doing it's not worth it
my swim buddies gets got all jacked up so we had had to go in there with him
and I was sitting and I'm never forgetting and stretch from rock walks
in he's like what the fuck are y'all doing and they're like no it's not we're
not hiding I swear to God he'll go get in the heart shower he made us go get in
it and because he con that's my god yeah you could hear that damn thing fired up
right that was my room at 6:04 was that
my favorite thing about the young guys we had one in our class name is Nick
hocks and I'll never forget you remember around the pit at the end of the day
your your your Bo crew or your oh I see would get around and be like alright
here's what we did right today here's what we did wrong you know officers do
you have anything you want to say you know all this and everybody would be
like oh we need to be more on time when and they go around and I mean I'm ever
remember uh mr. D would be like rah rah rah freedom yeah yeah freedom and and it
it was yeah it was so funny I'm thinking forever man
it was so funny but then I remember Nick got up and Nick was 18 he joined 1789
buzz and he was five seven nine five six one hundred and thirty pounds soaking
soaking wet and he comes up and he had this way he kind of walked cocky
motherfucker but it ha everyone everyone loved him everybody and he came up he
got out in the minute he goes all of you effing pussies right huh
he goes you guys they're all scared need to quit right now everyone's like well
first of all maybe not fuck him that's awesome yeah you're right dude I he did
everyone's gonna quit quit now get the fuck out of here quit now get the fuck
dude I would I love this oh he was turned into like that like the class
mask and it he was hard I mean he was
miserable but he was all he knew he was taking some heat Oh
after that it didn't stop man well I guess I would say like I guess I just
blend it all together then and and you know like one just do it like now
nowadays like everybody has got so much access you know to like everything
us and it's hey what would you do hey what would you do hey what would you do
hey what you know and it's like my generation is part of the newest one out
of it isn't it was you know out of all of us and I didn't have access to that
shit and I was 18 and I said fuck it I'm gonna do it you know and I did it and
then like well you were saying like be selfless like I remember I remember the
the people that stood out to me the most in my class were the Marines yeah thank
you guys have already gone out yeah we're gonna come back in and when I I
had Barker yeah Doyle and and Ellie Miller too and those guys man like just
fucking got it you know like money if you're the best at what if you're the
fucking fastest runner or the fastest swimmer that's great and if you're used
to getting praise and you know like oh you're fucking you're a badass cuz you
won the fucking goddamn football game or you won the track meet or you were the
best wrestler like you're not getting that prazer at all so if you win the
fucking four mile run then you better get your ass back in there and help the
dude and you better not be looking for that praise cuz you're not gonna get it
you know and the the Marines are like one through my class like those three
guys are the ones that really ring a bell for me you know what I mean like
bring it back is you know they're the ones that when I shot like shit
it up things right in your face you have them they're helping me - I can shoot
better when I swim like shit because that was like the slowest
swimmer they're the ones dragging my ass through the fucking water you know and
yeah and like so you need to give that
mindset to be able to go you know it's not the best who gives a shit because
your buddy isn't so make him the best or you know what I mean
unless he's a total shitbag drowning you know but that's that's my take well
gentlemen I'm glad you brought that up man those Marines dude cuz that's big
deal - getting down the core yeah yeah one of the guys I trained with they're
in our group there's three Navy SEALs and two Green Berets but one of the seal
Tommy he was a Marine Force Recon really like a war one officer type - and when
he decided he was ten years in the Corps before you he's like I want to be a seal
now taking forever to get these old ten now really oh yeah hard as nails man but
it was we hit third face and what's the struggle was anybody marine here and
when Shawn Morrison stood up in our class everything got a lot easier they
moved him kind of into them leadership position today that's cool squared away
that's cool gents again Rob Shawn thank you so much for coming all the way out
