"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." — Edmund BurkeDean Stott served in one of the world’s most elite special forces units, the British SBS (Special Boat Service).In a 16-year military career, Dean deployed to the planet’s most hostile environments, tackled counter-terrorism operations, and lived the unrelenting pursuit of excellence.In 2011, a parachuting accident ended his military career, but Dean didn’t slow down.

He did it—raising over $1.4 million for mental health charities along the way.In 2024, Dean was awarded the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire).Dean now hosts Netflix’s Toughest Forces on Earth and SAS Australia, while inspiring global audiences as a sought-after speaker.In this episode:How to set—and achieve—goals beyond your wildest imagination.The best lessons from the world’s preeminent special forces units.How to build unbreakable resilience when everything goes wrong.Why a better life starts with you.🍿 Let’s WIN THE DAY with Dean Stott!_🎬 Episode website (including 4K video, full transcript, best quotes, etc.): https://jameswhitt.com/270-win-the-day-podcast-dean-stott_Episode links:🎯 Download your FREE ⁠⁠Win the Day action plan⁠⁠⚡ Dean Stott website📷 Dean Stott Instagram📚 ‘Relentless’ by Dean Stott📽️ Dean Stott YouTube🎬 Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Win the Day YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ channel💚 Give the Win the Day podcast a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠5-star rating on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🙏 Give the Win the Day podcast a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠5-star rating on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠_Timemarkers:00:00 Who is Dean Stott2:00 Interview starts2:58 How to handle the haters7:04 The power of self-belief (how to achieve the impossible)9:45 The #1 skill of a special forces operator11:23 Selection for British special forces (SAS/SBS)14:00 Special forces secret to overcoming fear14:42 What’s the difference between the SAS (Special Air Service) and the SBS (Special Boat Service)16:08 Be the "Grey Man"20:16 If you don't believe that you can do it, you've already failed21:21 What’s the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2 special forces24:02 The #1 tip for a success life (do the basics well)25:22 What it’s like to be a Tier One special forces26:44 Why SAS and SBS are different to Delta and SEAL Team 627:35 How each special forces unit is different31:02 How dangerous are the most dangerous places on Earth34:30 Life as a security contractor36:20 Having a “fixer” in every region42:46 How to prepare for violence44:42 Transition to civilian life46:27 Dealing with ungrateful civilians49:26 Dean Stott parachuting accident54:24 Going from Tier 1 operator to military contractor57:21 Being in Libya for the 2012 Benghazi attack 59:09 Saving children from the 2024 terrorist attack in Israel1:02:26 Never getting emotionally involved1:05:35 How to survive your darkest moments1:08:38 Why you need a support network1:09:36 How to push through when you’ve got nothing left1:11:10 How Dean Stott planned his world record1:15:27 From the battlefield to the boardroom1:18:02 Best tips for parenting1:20:57 The unrelenting pursuit of excellence1:24:20 Affirmation1:26:01 Rocket Round_Want to support the show?1.
