Synopsis "SEAL Stories: The 5 Points: From Despair to SEAL Team 4 and Beyond"
In 1986 Brett Hanson stood on the bank of the Detroit River in a summer rainstorm, staring blankly at the dark water with only a small chain-link fence between him and suicide. A homeless dropout, wasted on cheap drugs and completely alone, he was barely 17 years old. Three years later, Brett Hanson stood with BUDs class 164 as he graduated from the toughest military training in the world, one step closer to becoming a Navy SEAL. Today, Brett Hanson stands with young Americans as a teacher and mentor in order to fulfill his greatest challenge yet, convincing them to wake up and embrace the first step toward excellence: Know yourself! SEAL Stories describes his slow evolution from petty crime and suicidal despair to self-awareness and success, focusing on five extraordinary events at BUDs and SEAL Team 4, while explaining how young Americans can use the 5 Points (Work, Honesty, Vision, Confidence, and Service) to improve their lives, learn to know and trust themselves, and become extraordinary.To learn more about SEAL Stories, The 5 Points motivational system, or Brett Hanson's goals to help others wake up their potential, please visit www.sealstories.com
