I heard one seal say he made it through buds/hell week, by focusing on the next meals... He knew the instructors could not withhold their chow sessions 🤣🤣🤣❤❤
Yep breaking down your task into manageable pieces is extremely powerful. I have hear several people say the same thing that have spent time in solitary confinement. That’s why you see these guys detail their cell like we would detail a car I learned it very young which is cool. Well at least started to learn the mindset. “DO NOT ALLOW THE TASK TO OVERWHELM YOU. OVERWHELM THE TASK WITH METICULOUS DETAIL UNTIL COMPLETE”-JS
This is true. but during bud/s you have to factor in that A: you are going to be sick and required to perform -- example: during hell week my buddy and basically the whole class contracted VGE from the tijuana runoff (theyd have literal turds stuck to their goggles), buddy was constantly spray shitting himself and vomiting along with his boat crew, on wednesday night of hell week during around the world evolution, their boats were filled with diarrhea, guys doubled over in fetal positions in between paddling. He was living off boosts/ensure drinks for calories during more than half of hell week because he couldnt hold normal food down. This is the part of hell week that you have to "push the retard button" for. meaning not think just do. nearing the final hours of hell week, an instructor told them "we've decided to extend hell week another 3 days"(it wasnt true) but no one quit, but thats the level that hell week takes guys to. You'd jump off a bridge if the instructors said to during the end of it.
When I was in the Navy I met a few SEALS. I asked one about BUD/S & Hell week and what he did to get through, he said he only thought as far ahead as the next meal. He said "They have to feed us. So I figured if I could just make it to the next meal, I'm good." I also asked an officer the same question and he said "If I'd quit BUD/S, I was looking at 5 years on a ship. Fuck that. Every time I got overwhelmed, I thought about 5 years on some ship. To me that was way worse than anything BUD/S could through at me." BTW These conversations were over 20 years ago so the quotes aren't word for word lol
It is a shock to the system. The majority of BUD/s students have only been in the Navy and have never been exposed to that environment. I did 8 years in the USMC Infantry before going to BUD/s, I was already use to the harsh reality of it. It was still hard but not overwhelming for a person who had already experienced combat and 8 years in the grunts.
really now.... what are the 602 and 618 buildings used for during bud/s then? and what side of the base are they on? be specific with wet side, dry side and what theyre next to. and wheres the NEX at? and what's the rock portage jetty in front of? what side of the base do west coast teams check in to? These questions are all not googleable so if you can answer ill believe your story but if not 0 chance. Too many lie about having gone to bud/s - usually on some insecure level. You'd know the answer to these questions if you did even 1 actual day of 1st phase of buds - even if someone made it to just indoc/BO they'd know the answers. I live 15 minutes away from coronado I know a ton of former marines whove DOR'd from bud/s, also know a few who've made it. It has no major relevance. I know a fomer ranger who became a team guy as well, said first 3 days of 1st phase were harder than the entirety of RASP
@@04702c Because its a really easy thing to lie and say youve been to buds (especially on the internet). The amount of in person times ive caught someone saying theyve been to buds when they havent is beyond a handful. Usually it's cops that'll lie about it ironically. These questions would be borderline impossible for someone to know the answer to unless they've been (or were close to guys in). and guys who've been there and/or at a team would have no issue answering them. Better than asking for some fake made up buds class #
Statistically speaking, alot of team guys have ADD. My best buddy made it to a team 4 years ago; major ADD. This is why youre talking about having to be actively focused on something else to come up with a solution for something different. psychologically for something like bud/s, ADD helps. Another major mental strategy my buddy used during buds and hell week that his class even coined the term for was "fuck it", meaning anytime thoughts started to come up during things that sucked you immediately block it out with "fuck it" - dont even allow the brain to compute whats happening. he said during hell week it was shortened to "fuck then fu.." lol. pushing the "retard button" is invaulable .
he felt the "ball of life"(lol) leaving his chest during many long boat runs especially down to imperial beach - immediately thought fuck it. He basically had to accept that he was going to die in the pool during pool comp in 2nd phase - he failed it 3 times, secured on the 4th. Even in kodiak during SQT during what he called "dip test" and many others he was still using this mental tactic. He said during the weekends, and sleeping during the nights and having to wake up were some of the worst parts of buds, because it allows your brain to start thinking. He set an alarm every morning 10 minutes before he had to be at morning muster, so it wouldnt even allow his brain to start thinking about what was coming - get dressed shave eat a power bar in that time (even get dressed actively on the way to muster). Long story short, moments of reprieve are some of the worst times during buds.
@@mtntoughfitness no problem just wanted to shed a little extra light. Like I said, ironically it was during times where you'd have time to think is what gets alot of guys to quit. Before or after evolutions were where guys would quit - rarer to have guys quit DURING evolutions (unless they were turds and were either kicked out by their crews/instructors). Same thing with the weekends/mornings. That reminder of repreive/comfort was the killer. would have alot of monday morning DORs after a relaxing weekend - same with mornings and after completing a beat down of an evolution.
Furthest thing from the truth. Selection in other branches doesnt even hold a candle to the product you get from buds/SQT. Best buddies an active seal and witnessed this firsthand - during his early platoon where he had to go to 18D (all medics in the seal teams are required); Said he saw the same timid/afraid of whats coming next look on guys faces fresh out of RASP or Q still, that beginning bud/s students tend to have before the beach/ocean does it's work and youre just left with a bunch of dudes who dont give a fuck by the end of buds. The product you get from the seal pipeline is just better. He'd rather work with the bottom 25% of seals than the top 25% or rangers/SF (he's been there done it). This also comes from the top down control the green side has with its SOF units. When the elements get small and the action gets dynamic - the top down control doesnt work. Less dynamic, harder to get teams on the same page etc. Seal teams control themselves (NSW) and only have to look to JSOC while battalion/SF have to look for big army then JSOC (for SF). Current commander for JSOC is a seal right now as well. Prime example: SEAL teams were doing C grip on rifles long before the green side passed off on it for battalion (and took forever to trickle down). something as simple as that, let alone actually tactically. seal teams are better funded, less manning (better and more training for each individual), seal selection is more funded (over $1 million to get 1 student through to SQT). I will say though, SQT has a CAG weapons instructor running that portion of it (atleast 4 years ago when my buddy went through it).

Damn that is why I always quit. I’m to focused on how long and far the task is to being finished.
