Özet
 Think like a Royal Marines Commando. Build an unbreakable mindset. Become the 0.1%.

Historical recruitment campaigns to become a Royal Marines Commando drew on a harrowing but intriguing narrative: 99.9% Need Not Apply. In 2005, only one in a thousand applications for the Royal Marines were successful in reaching the end of training, earning the Coveted Green Beret - a world renowned symbol of excellence.

Becoming the 0.1% is the first-ever diary account of this training regime, charting the odds-stacked journey of Gareth Timmins, a 20-year-old recruit at the time, and providing a psychological framework for understanding how he was able to cultivate the mental strength and resilience needed to push through to success.

Each week of training is accompanied by lessons on his short-comings and growth to peak performance. It uses real-life and often terrifying experiences to describe to the reader the edge you need to cultivate a 0.1% mindset and succeed in life and work, by learning how to:

- Visualise achievements
- Combat fatigue and burnout
- Stay motivated by not losing sight of the end goal
- Eradicate complacency and achieve mastery
- Redefine expectation and regulate disappointment
- Live without convenience
- Thrive under pressure
- Break down self-imposed limitations
- Be held accountable to others

I wish when Voice actors are brought on to talk about a military subject, they are briefed on the correct terms. Fortytwo Commando is Four Two Commando, Fortyfive Commando is Four Five Commando and so on. This mistake detracts from what the author is try to say ands lends more credibility to the narrative.

Intense learning experience.

Not a war story which is great.

Focus is completely on the author’s journey from recruit to being badged. Absolutely loved this.

Superb!

Becoming a Royal marine is something that is not for me. However, this book was class and I was loving following Gareth Timmins' journey through hardship and adversity. I have learned a lot that I can apply to my own life and hardships.

As for the book itself, it was good enough that I bought the paper copy mid way through so I could have all the lessons in front of me. I enjoyed both narrators, it added to the audio performance significantly. A younger Gareth, going through hell, and an older Gareth looking back to help us through it and add lessons learned.

Thank you for writing this diary, it's inspiring what you've accomplished, and I cannot thank you enough for sharing the lessons you have learned. This book will help me on my journey, and I hope it helps others, whether you are going to become a marine, or are doing some other task in your life. For me, it's my PhD, and even though it's nothing like a green beret (which I have so much more respect for now than I started!) this book can help me with that.

I'm wary the review is getting a bit long, but I definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to achieve something difficult or wants to listen to the hardships and efforts of training to earn the prestigious green beret. Thanks Gareth.

Excellent and inspirational
