Navy SEAL commander explains what he learned from being fired - Business Insider

Pride is the first thing to fall. The reason I was selected for that job is because I viewed myself as one of the best officers in the SEAL community. And I got there, and I didn't perform tot he level that was expected of me. And so — you get knocked down a notch or two, and you have to reevaluate, "What did I need to do better?" "How do I show that I am a good officer?"

So frankly, the way to get out of it is to work twice as hard. And to accept a little humility that you're never as good as your press clippings. You're never as good as you think you are. Work hard. Be humble — and I think that will serve you well in life.

He tells me he graduated a year behind my dad in high school, then tells me a funny story about how my teenage dad once ventured out in a storm announcing, 'I'm not going to let a little thing like the elements stop me,' before jumping in his truck and driving home. (#NDnobodyforgetsanythingyoueverdid, #NDnooneisafraidoftheweather).
