Mind OVER Matter Who is going to succeed at BUD/s does not depend on how hard the instructors push a class! A bold statement because it is the Truth! The truth is that the NSW Training Command would like to see all that have screened to be at BUD/s, to graduate. However, statistics demonstrate year after year, decade after decade, small classes, large classes, winter, summer, spring and fall, regardless, there will still be a high percentage that will not finish the program. This is because; despite even under the best of circumstances, no one can determine how an individual will perform under periods of physical duress or mental stress or both. Some say that is Mind OVER Matter- if you don’t mind, it won’t matter! FACT! The body is an amazing thing that can be made to do what you want it to do, when the Brain is telling you NOT to do what you are trying to accomplish. The secret to overcoming the Brains control, that has been as elusive as many that eventually fail, is having the self-discipline ability to overcome the Brain’s messages to the body that try to tell it to quit! Every BUD/s graduate will experience, at some point during training, this control from the Brain and sometimes many times over. It may be hard to understand unless you have been there and done that, but I assure you each BUD/s graduate masters the ability to control how and what message is delivered to the Brain. "Telling the Brain to ignore sending the body the message to quit". For those that do overcome this amazing urge to quit, when the mind is desperately telling the body to stop, and cause the brain to ignore the aching body and to persevere despite the adversity; those that can do this… THEY, go on to become US Navy SEALs.
