Jack Carr spent 20 years as a Navy SEAL sniper. He led his teams in Iraq and Afghanistan, commanding Special Operations Task Units, and served as a platoon commander in the southern Philippines. Since leaving the military he has become a New York best selling author. Through his thrillers we get a look at military life, family, hunting, the outdoors, and fitness. He is a patriot, lover of freedom. But more than being an sniper, author, and outdoorsman he is a devoted loving husband and father. We dive into several tough topics including handling negativity and negative and sometimes personal reviews about his life and work. We dive into a few quotes and excerpts from his 4 novels along with his writing process. Jack shares how he remains authentic and true to himself and his core beliefs as well as how he prioritizes and executes to get things done and be his best self for his family and readers of his books. Jack really got me thinking when he talked about being a father and how negatives don’t always need to be turned into positives. But we can always make the best of each and every opportunity and situation. It is not just about survival but prevailing no matter what obstacles are in our path. Life is hard. If you stay with it and keep moving forwards you will prevail. Never quit. - Thomas Reese (Written and lived by Jack Carr) This was a great conversation. I hope you enjoy it and get as much out of as I did! Stay Humble! Be Hungry! Get Healthy! And always BE TOUGHER THAN LIFE!!!
