It's all about THE ATTRIBUTES.u003cbru003eu003cbru003e"Diviney's incredible book explains why some people thrive—even when things get hard."—Charles Duhigg, u003ciu003eNew York Timesu003c/iu003e bestselling author of u003ciu003eThe Power of Habitu003c/iu003eu003c/bu003eu003ciu003eu003cbru003eu003c/iu003eu003cbru003eDuring his twenty years as a Navy officer and SEAL, Rich Diviney was intimately involved in a specialized SEAL selection process, which whittled a group of hundreds of extraordinary candidates down to a handful of the most elite performers. Diviney was often surprised by which candidates washed out and which succeeded. Some could have all the right skills and still fail, while others he might have initially dismissed would prove to be top performers. The seemingly objective criteria weren't telling him what he most needed to know: Who would succeed in one of the world's toughest military assignments?u003cbru003eu003cbru003eIt is similarly hard to predict success in the real world. u003cbru003eu003cbru003eIt happens often enough that underdog students accomplish exceptional achievements while highly skilled, motivated employees fail to meet expectations. Dark-horse companies pull away from the pack while dream teams flush with talent and capital go under. In working with and selecting top special operators for decades, Diviney saw that beneath obvious skills are hidden drivers of performance, surprising core attributes—including u003cbu003ecunningu003c/bu003e, u003cbu003eadaptabilityu003c/bu003e, u003cbu003ecourageu003c/bu003e, even u003cbu003enarcissismu003c/bu003e—that determine how u003cbu003eresilientu003c/bu003e or u003cbu003eperseverantu003c/bu003e we are, how u003cbu003esituationally awareu003c/bu003e and how u003cbu003econscientiousu003c/bu003e. These attributes explain how we perform as individuals and as part of a team. The same methodology that Diviney used in the military can be applied by anyone in their personal and professional lives, and understanding these attributes can allow readers and their teams to perform optimally, at any time, in any situation.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eDiviney defines the core attributes in fresh and practical ways and shares stories from the military, business, sports, relationships, and even parenting to show how understanding your own attributes and those of the people around you can create optimal performance in all areas of your life.
