''Freedom is the weakest goal you can have. That’s a goal for prisoners.'' - Eric Davis

Who do you ultimately want to become in this life? Are you making the most of every moment? Are you willing to do anything in order to pursue your biggest goals?

Today I’m talking with former Navy SEAL Eric Davis, who believes your freedom is the weakest goal you can have. As he puts it, “It’s the little patch of dirt that stands between you and the REAL goal. What would life look like if you were already free… because you are!”

Eric Davis is a former U.S. Navy SEAL who has been recognized as one of the premier sniper instructors in the U.S. military and has served as a Master Training Specialist at the SEAL sniper school in Coronado, CA.

Eric has spent years developing, writing and executing curriculum for the SEAL Teams. He trained Marcus Luttrell of Lone survivor and Chris Kyle of American Sniper.

Since departing from the SEAL teams, Eric has worked in corporate performance, sales and leadership training, bringing an unprecedented amount of innovation, efficiency and structure to the domain of business and personal performance.

Eric is also the author of "Raising Men: Lessons Navy SEALs learned from their training and taught to their sons".

In today’s session, Eric shares his background and the lessons he learned as a Navy SEAL, including how to never give up on your dreams.
