Your Thursday Three Things
Three Things Thursday!
(The Intersection of Leadership and Wellness!)
A roller coaster ride, a ship in a storm, a clock’s pendulum swinging…
…
That's how bipolar feels in three seconds.
One moment you're as excited as a carefree kid on a sugar rush,
Next, you're drowning in icy darkness like a Titanic victim.
Racing against your own mental health while trying to make progress in your career.
And as if that isn't enough,
What should be an act of discretion from your Doctor to help you…
Backfires and almost destroys you completely!
But Gregg Martin faced all these and still became a 2 star general who led battalions to victory in his day.
All the while, fighting the war within his very own mind.
His secret? It’s actually part of the “Three Things Thursday!” See below…
Movie recommendation: The Last Samurai
Oh this one’s a classic! It explores personal transformation, cultural understanding, and the importance of embracing change. It features Tom Cruise, a disillusioned Civil War veteran, who finds purpose and meaning through his experiences in Japan, learning from the Samurai about honor, discipline, and the value of living in the moment.
Book recommendation: Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins
Once depressed and overweight, David became the first man to complete elite military training in the Navy SEALs, Army Rangers, and Air Force. His book captures his journey and includes battle-tested principles that will encourage you to go beyond your perceived limits.

Where were we?
Oh yeah, I was about to tell you a man's secret.
Sadly, I realized it would be too much to capture in this email;
And that brings me to my third thing for this Thursday which is:
Gregg has now revealed how he survived, what he learned, and how he has been able to live a fulfilled and accomplished life in the face of his 'bipolar hell'.
If you've been managing certain conditions that have constantly threatened your peace of mind or career…
Then this would be an awesome listen for you!
Well I'm off.
Until next time,
Train hard, breathe easy.
Jon Macaskill
Navy SEAL Commander (Ret.)
