Dave Grossman, author, Army officer, and founder of the Killology Research Group wrote the modern seminal work on the emotional, mental, and spiritual effects of killing in his book On Killing.  The book explains the natural aversion we all have to killing, rightfully so, and the precautions and preparations one must make to overcome them should their profession demand it, as in the military or law enforcement. 

He references a well, figurative in nature, but very real in affect, that the leader can draw upon when stress inevitably befalls us.  It is this quote which is the center of this week‘s episode.
