In this episode, Casanova and Mark discuss mental toughness and resiliency, and how to train to be someone special.
Mark shares that there’s a lot of synchroneity between what he teaches and how he lives. He spends at least four hours of his day, training himself to be a better person; physically, mentally, emotionally, intuitively, and spiritually. He calls them “The Five Mountains.”
Mark firmly believes in walking his talk and leading and living by example. He learned some incredibly valuable lessons, both in becoming a SEAL and leading other individuals in those dangerous, crazy situations.
Mark’s shift towards spirituality didn’t start until he got into Zen meditation, as a part of a martial art. He also put himself on a routine that would keep me fit.
Joining a Martial Arts school in New York, and learning meditation alongside karate, he opened himself up to the possibility that there was way more going on than what met the eye. That process led him to completely change the story of the life that he was living.
