“Defeat is real. It is also temporary. We have to understand both. Faced for what it is, absorbed and met without self-deception, defeat can offer wisdom and motivation. Begin even though you know that you will suffer failure and defeat along the way.”
Eric Greitens, Resilience: Hard-Won Wisdom for Living a Better Life

Eric Greitens
“There were a number of definitions of courage, but now I was seeing it in its simplest form: you do what has to be done day after day, and you never quit.”
Eric Greitens, The Heart and the Fist: The Education of a Humanitarian, the Making of a Navy SEAL

Eric Greitens
“Courage overcomes, but does not replace, fear. Joy overcomes, but does not replace, pain.”
Eric Greitens, Resilience: Hard-Won Wisdom for Living a Better Life

Eric Greitens
“...it's not enough to fight for a better world; we also have to live lives worth fighting for.”
Eric Greitens, The Heart and the Fist: The Education of a Humanitarian, the Making of a Navy SEAL

“If we want to change something, we must begin with understanding. But if we want to love something, we must begin with acceptance.”
