The wisdom in this book comes from over twenty-three years of service, sacrifice, and teaching leaders, both young and old, in and outside of the United States Military in organizations and communities around the globe. As a Navy Non-Commissioned Officer and Senior Chief, I was called to teach and share strategic principles and leadership techniques that would prepare our nation’s best and brightest leaders to go into harm’s way as humanitarians, dignitaries, negotiators, construction men and women, and combat soldiers ready to fight, win, lead, and survive.

Together, we fought, grew, and learned how to provide better futures for ourselves and others through high-octane leadership.

Today I share these principles with young professionals, men and women, entrepreneurs, freedom seekers, and agents of change who are ready to answer the call for effective leadership in their families, communities, and organizations. I teach them that outstanding leadership starts with self: self-leadership, self-discipline, self-awareness, and self-caring. If you’re reading this, I challenge you to absorb the wisdom in this book and use it to make the rest of your life the best of your life by paving your way to victory as a high-octane leader. The rewards are immeasurable.

This book is dedicated to the next generation. You’ve been given the foundation to be, do, and achieve everything you put your mind to. I’ve seen your leadership potential in the men and women I’ve trained and educated. Now, the decision is yours. May you become the leader you’ve always dreamed of – the best leader you can be.

Cheers,
