The High 5 Habit: Take Control of Your Life with One Simple Habit

by Mel Robbins (Author)
In her global phenomenon The 5 Second Rule, Mel Robbins taught millions of people around the
world the five second secret to motivation. Now she’s back with another simple, proven tool you
can use to take control of your life: The High 5 Habit. Don’t let the title fool you. This isn’t a book
about high fiving everyone else in your life. You’re already doing that. Cheering for your favorite
teams. Celebrating your friends. Supporting the people you love as they go after what they want in
life. Imagine if you gave that same love and encouragement to yourself. Or even better, you made
it a daily habit.

You’d be unstoppable.

In this book, Mel teaches you how to start high fiving the most important person in your life, the
one who is staring back at you in the mirror: YOURSELF.

If you struggle with self-doubt (and who doesn’t?) ...
If you’re tired of that nagging critic in your head (could somebody evict them already?) ...
If you’re wildly successful but all you focus on is what’s going wrong (you’re not alone) ...
If you’re sick of watching everybody else get ahead while you sit on the couch with your dog (don’t bring your dog into
this) ...

Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts

by Brené Brown (Author)
Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsi-
bility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that poten-
tial. When we dare to lead, we don’t pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the
right questions. We don’t see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite
when we share it with others. We don’t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into
vulnerability when it’s necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by
scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely
human. The irony is that we’re choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders
at the exact same time as we’re scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and
AI can’t do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start.

Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win
by Jocko Willink (Author)
Combat, the most intense and dynamic environment imaginable, teaches the toughest leadership
lessons, with absolutely everything at stake. Jocko Willink and Leif Babin learned this reality first-
hand on the most violent and dangerous battlefield in Iraq. As leaders of SEAL Team Three’s Task
Unit Bruiser, their mission was one many thought impossible: help U.S. forces secure Ramadi, a
violent, insurgent-held city deemed “all but lost.” In gripping, firsthand accounts of heroism, tragic
loss, and hard-won victories, they learned that leadership―at every level―is the most important fac-
tor in whether a team succeeds or fails.

Willink and Babin returned home from deployment and instituted SEAL leadership training to pass
on their harsh lessons of self-discipline, mental toughness and self-defense learned in combat to
help forge the next generation of SEAL leaders. After leaving the SEAL Teams, they launched a
company, Echelon Front, to teach those same leadership principles to leaders in businesses, com-
panies, and organizations across the civilian sector. Since that time, they have trained countless leaders and worked with
hundreds of companies in virtually every industry across the U.S. and internationally, teaching them how to develop their
own high-performance teams and most effectively lead those teams to dominate their battlefields.
