If I can learn from this book, what might it do for you?" --MARTY STRONG , Author, CEO, Retired SEAL "Don easily exhibits how to muster all bravery, to confidently reach over any precarious edge and seize your glory.

In short, to successfully, continually conquer the unreachable, the unconquerable again and again, flawlessly." --JONO SENK, US Army Ranger, founder of Hairy Scary Evolutions "Don Mann is a world-class athlete, retired Navy SEAL, and an amazing human being.

His stories illustrate how failure is integral to success, and how small goals over time can lead to big success." --DAVID TAKATA, CEO Engage Capital, institutional investor, and Wall Street Journal all-star technology analyst "Don Mann is a true leader and an inspiration.

" --KATHY ROCHE-WALLACE, decorated ultra-athlete and American cross-country record holder "Throughout Overcoming Obstacles '' chapters Mann highlights the importance of the proper mix of Physical , Mental , and Spiritual life habits that you can take charge of in order to show you a way out of this conundrum. By utilizing his insatiable love for learning and his long history of challenging himself mentally, physically, and spiritually, his readers get blessed with newfound solutions for life''s many challenges and unseen opportunities." --TONY DADANTE , Humble Life Coach "Overcoming Obstacles is a down-to-earth discussion about strategies each of us could use in overcoming obstacles we encounter while pursuing our goals. It''s reassuring to know (from the examples in the book) that if people like Elon Musk, Walt Disney, Thomas Edison, and SEAL Team Six members experienced obstacles, then I can expect to encounter obstacles in the pursuit of my goals also. If you''re not currently facing an obstacle, you eventually will. So, why not be equipped and prepared to address them by reading this book?" --ALLEN WOOTEN , Elite Obstacle Course Competitor and Triathlete "The concept of "getting out of your own road" is one that I have contemplated without success until now; here Don Mann with the wisdom and experience of a Navy SEAL, humbly explains how to do this. There is nothing of more value. My favourite of Don Mann''s Navy Seal self-help trilogy, the other real learning from Overcoming Obstacles as the title of the books suggests, is how best to deal with adversity.

I think this is equally this book''s most enduring quality. For it is adversity that ultimately has the ability to stop us in our tracks, and it is how we "handle the storm" and come out the other side, which will ultimately determine our life''s path. The choice is yours, made easier with Don''s assistance. An absolute must read and re-read. There are very few books that I would consider needing or wanting to read more than twice; Overcoming Obstacles goes into a list of three that I will ensure to read time and again. It will remain with me always. It''s that important." -- HEATH PODMORE, Founder & Head Performance Coach, Elevarlife Performance Training "An Amazing Motivational Read When you finish reading this book you will probably have the same thought: Don wrote this book for me! Don illustrates through very interesting and relatable examples what is fundamentally the path to success.

I found some important life lessons in this book that are relevant to anyone who wants to achieve a goal, no matter how big or small. I feel refreshed and excited to begin my next journey to success using the wisdom Overcoming Obstacles has given me. It is clear why Don Mann is a great author, motivational speaker, and a highly respected NAVY SEAL." -- Leanda R. Cave, Four-Time World Triathlon Champion "Former SEAL Team 6 member Don Mann knows more about overcoming obstacles that most people on the planet. He''s done so over and over in his life and on the battlefield. Now, he shares the wisdom he''s gained in this must-read book." --Ralph Pezzullo, New York Times bestselling author.
