Rate this book
"When It All Goes to Thoughts on Chaos and Crisis from a CIA Counterterrorism Operator" by Jeff Banman, with Drew Williams, is a vital guide for navigating chaos and crisis. Drawing from over three decades of experience as a firefighter, Airborne Ranger, and CIA Counterterrorism Operator, Jeff shares his profound insights into managing extreme stress and uncertainty.

The book revolves around the concept of "C3" – Comfort, Confidence, and Creativity – essential traits that Jeff believes are crucial for maintaining composure and making clear decisions in high-stress situations. Through practical exercises and real-world examples, readers learn how to develop these traits, understand their unique stress responses, and enhance their overall preparedness.

Jeff introduces the Intuitive Guidance System, a refined version of the traditional fight-flight-freeze response, offering a broader range of options and better decision-making capabilities. The book is filled with actionable advice, checklists, and templates, making it a practical resource for anyone looking to build resilience.

Engaging and insightful, "When It All Goes to Hell" is more than just a survival guide; it's a manual for thriving in adversity. Jeff Banman's wisdom equips readers to handle crises with calm precision and confidence, ensuring they are prepared for whatever comes their way.
