Fighter Pilot Parent Information

★ MY EXPERTISE – The evolution and ultimate success of a Navy Fighter Pilot is linked to a system that maximizes human performance, optimally manages fear, and places the highest premium on leadership. Having evolved in this unique incubator, I became motivated to convert this precious system in support of those I love and care most about – my own kids. The lessons, tools, and takeaways in this book have truly been written in blood and are reflected in first-hand accounts and personal stories. ★ WHO GETS RESULTS – Although designed for Parents, this book is for those motivated to support someone’s life journey, in such a valuable way, that they arrive healthy in mind, body and spirit, and are legitimate people of consequence, whether they be kids, teams, or employees. ★ HOW I DO THIS – I provide critical insights on self-leadership and core values. I introduce the concept of controlled failure and its irreplaceable value. I share strategies for building body, mind, social, and spirit strength and balance. I include tools to avoid insidious recognition inflation. And I highlight the four most powerful adversity defenses – Faith, Family, Friends, and Fun. ★ WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING: "I love the way Brick Conners engages you with stimulating stories from his fighter pilot career, and then drops a bomb on parenting myths.
