Most difficult part is called "Hell Week." 5 1/2 days long, you get only 4 hours total of sleep, cover over 200 miles on your feet while carrying a boat on your head with your boat crew or a telephone pole. Freezing cold water, no wetsuit, hypothermia and hallucinations! By the last night of Hell Week I was seeing Ninja Turtles LOL.

This is a very important question and deserves some deeper reflection before answering.

I was failing all of my classes in Jr. College because I was ditching class, surfing and smoking pot. I realized I was turning into a loser fast so I needed to do something big. In the school parking as I was about to go into class I decided, "Forget school...I wanna be a Navy SEAL" and just like that I drove out of the parking lot and starting my first day of preparation, running, pull-ups, push-ups etc.

I honestly never entertained the thought of quitting. I made up my mind I would die before I quit and I had a lot of motivation to do it for my KIA mentor Scott Helvenston. I had his name written on the bill of my hat as a constant reminder and motivation.
