Only The Disciplined Are Free | Wes Masters

Wes Masters is a former British Army soldier who was awarded the Military Cross for Gallantry by Queen Elizabeth II in 2014.  He was expelled from school at 15, joined the military out of necessity, served on the last combat tour of Afghanistan, and is now the founder of Military Physiques, helping men build belief, capability and confidence through discipline and fitness. In this episode Wes gives us a masterclass on discipline, identity and what it actually means to do hard things. We cover: \- How Wes ran 300 metres across open ground under sniper fire carrying 65 kilos of kit to save a teammate who had been shot in the neck \- Why only the disciplined are free \- What it felt like taking the uniform off for the last time after eight years \- How being expelled at 15 and being told he hadn't got the brains for something carried him through three years of university \- Why the trip that saved his life was walking 400 miles from Budapest with his dog and a tent \- The one small standard he never breaks that sets the tone for his entire day \- Why doing something out of routine every Sunday changed everything for him \- The biggest lie men tell themselves about why they are not training \- Why doing things without technology once a day is one of the most powerful things you can do right now -- Sponsor: https://www.instagram.com/pithandstem Follow Wes on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wesmasters Follow Freddie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/freddiepullen_ Follow Freddie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/freddie-pullen Follow the podcast on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehealthyentrepreneurpod * * * Hosted on Acast.
