Think like a Royal Marines Commando. Build an unbreakable mindset. Become the 0.1%

Historical recruitment campaigns to become a Royal Marines Commando drew on an intriguing narrative: 99.9% Need Not Apply. In 2005, only one in a thousand applications for the Royal Marines were successful in reaching the end of training, earning the Coveted Green Beret - a world renowned symbol of excellence.

Becoming the 0.1% is the first-ever diary account of this training regime, charting the journey of Gareth Timmins, a 20-year-old recruit at the time. Each week of training is accompanied by lessons on how he transformed his failures into success. It uses real-life and often terrifying experiences to describe to the reader the edge you need to cultivate a 0.1% mindset and succeed in life and work, by learning how to:

- Visualise achievements
- Combat fatigue and burnout
- Stay motivated by not losing sight of the end goal
- Eradicate complacency and achieve mastery
- Redefine expectation and regulate disappointment
- Live without convenience
- Thrive under pressure
- Break down self-imposed limitations
- Be held accountable to others

Having served with the elite I can say I resonate with this well spoken book. Gareth nails the insecurities and anxieties that were felt but never spoken. Having never served with Royal Marines but wishing I had this also serves as a fascinating look backstage at the process of civvi to commando. Loved every second of this. Will re-listen again in the future.. respect!
