Uncommon Grit is a fine art photography book-a creative look at Naval Special Warfare Basic Underwater Demolition School (BUD/S). This one-of-a-kind piece gives readers a unique perspective of the first four weeks of basic conditioning phase-widely considered the hardest four weeks of all military training. The photos are beautiful and haunting at the same time. Readers will empathize, gasp, and feel a renewed, deep respect for the men willing to try to become Navy SEALs. Ultimately, what makes these images truly special is they were captured by someone who has lived every moment shown-24-year Navy veteran, retired SEAL, and professional photographer Darren "McB" McBurnett. His unique viewpoint, creativity, and personal knowledge of the subject has resulted in images of BUD/S training rarely seen.Uncommon Grit includes descriptions of the training evolutions as told by McB from his own experience as a BUD/S student. His sense of humor shines through and you will find yourself smiling and laughing, even as you cringe trying to imagine what it must be like to push your body and mind to these extremes.

Praised as “remarkable”, “powerful” and “inspiring” by everyone from special forces operators, elite athletes and coaches, and backcountry experts, to everyday people striving to improve their lives, Tough “sets the standard” and “encompass[es] the message we all need.” Being truly tough is a genuine command over ourselves and an ever-increasing mastery of the mental, emotional and physical elements that define us and determine the course of our lives. It gives us the fortitude, mindset and tools to not simply survive adversity, but to thrive through it and in its wake. It gives us a broad and always expanding array of capabilities that create self-reliance and confidence, give us access to new opportunities and experiences, and allows us to contribute more than we consume. It ensures we understand who we truly are, and that we ultimately determine that identity and reinforce it daily with our choices and habits. And true toughness allows us to remain committed to our chosen path to achieve what we intend no matter what it is or how difficult the process. This is a guide including practical action to discover and develop our ultimate capacity to withstand adversity, to collect and build the mental and physical tools to accomplish the challenging and incredible, and to find security in our identities and the confidence and resilience it engenders. Tough is an inspiring look deep into what makes us tough and why it matters, and provides the practical tools and steps to achieve genuine change in your life.

If you want your startup to succeed, you need to understand why startups fail. “Whether you’re a first-time founder or looking to bring innovation into a corporate environment, Why Startups Fail is essential reading.”—Eric Ries, founder and CEO, LTSE, and New York Times bestselling author of The Lean Startup and The Startup Way Why do startups fail? That question caught Harvard Business School professor Tom Eisenmann by surprise when he realized he couldn’t answer it. So he launched a multiyear research project to find out. In Why Startups Fail, Eisenmann reveals his findings: six distinct patterns that account for the vast majority of startup failures. • Bad Bedfellows. Startup success is thought to rest largely on the founder’s talents and instincts. But the wrong team, investors, or partners can sink a venture just as quickly. • False Starts. In following the oft-cited advice to “fail fast” and to “launch before you’re ready,” founders risk wasting time and capital on the wrong solutions. • False Promises. Success with early adopters can be misleading and give founders unwarranted confidence to expand. • Speed Traps. Despite the pressure to “get big fast,” hypergrowth can spell disaster for even the most promising ventures. • Help Wanted. Rapidly scaling startups need lots of capital and talent, but they can make mistakes that leave them suddenly in short supply of both. • Cascading Miracles. Silicon Valley exhorts entrepreneurs to dream big. But the bigger the vision, the more things that can go wrong. Drawing on fascinating stories of ventures that failed to fulfill their early promise—from a home-furnishings retailer to a concierge dog-walking service, from a dating app to the inventor of a sophisticated social robot, from a fashion brand to a startup deploying a vast network of charging stations for electric vehicles—Eisenmann offers frameworks for detecting when a venture is vulnerable to these patterns, along with a wealth of strategies and tactics for avoiding them. A must-read for founders at any stage of their entrepreneurial journey, Why Startups Fail is not merely a guide to preventing failure but also a roadmap charting the path to startup success.

In this revelatory and moving memoir, a former NASA astronaut and NFL wide receiver shares his personal journey from the gridiron to the stars, examining the intersecting roles of community, perseverance and grace that align to create the opportunities for success. Leland Melvin is the only person in human history to catch a pass in the National Football League and in space. Though his path to the heavens was riddled with setbacks and injury, Leland persevered to reach the stars. While training with NASA, Melvin suffered a severe injury that left him deaf. Leland was relegated to earthbound assignments, but chose to remain and support his astronaut family. His loyalty paid off. Recovering partial hearing, he earned his eligibility for space travel. He served as mission specialist for two flights aboard the shuttle Atlantis, working on the International Space Station. In this uplifting memoir, the former NASA astronaut and professional athlete offers an examination of the intersecting role of community, determination, and grace that align to shape our opportunities and outcomes. Chasing Space is not the story of one man, but the story of many men, women, scientists, and mentors who helped him defy the odds and live out an uncommon destiny. As a chemist, athlete, engineer and space traveler, Leland’s life story is a study in the science of achievement. His personal insights illuminate how grit and grace, are the keys to overcoming adversity and rising to success.

Breakthrough research proves GRIT can be understood, measured and permanently improved. New York Times #1 best-selling author, Dr. Paul G. Stoltz, the originator of the AQ (Adversity Quotient) theory and method, delivers on the next big breakthrough in human endeavor and success. Discover why a new study reveals 98% of employers worldwide pick GRIT over any other factor, including grit. Find out why GRIT can determine whether or not you achieve your goals, transcend your circumstances, and better your life. Grit is hot, but misunderstood. Most people think grit is purely about basic tenacity and persistence. "That's much too limited. Science proves there is substantially more to GRIT," says Dr. Paul G. Stoltz, (author of Adversity Quotient, The Adversity Advantage, Put Your Mindset to Work). In this provocative new book, he provides the definitive upgrade from "grit" to "GRIT", and asserts that "Whether at work, school, home, sport, or play, the quality of GRIT is as important as or more important than the quantity." Drawing from his 35 years of scholarly research and practical application in top companies and institutions like Harvard Business School and MIT, Stoltz exposes the difference between Dumb and Smart GRIT, Bad and Good GRIT, Weak and Strong GRIT. He lays out the four dimensions of GRIT, Growth, Resilience, Instinct, and Tenacity, then guides the reader to Grok (understand), Gauge (measure) and Grow (measurably improve) one's GRIT. Each book comes with a private code to complete the GRIT Gauge(tm), online, with a full feedback report on one's GRIT, along with concrete tools and tips to apply GRIT as leaders, students, professionals, parents, athletes, team members, individuals, whatever the age or stage of life, to achieve uncommon personal and collective success in any and all pursuits.
