Product Information

The latest in the Ant Middleton self help books, 15 Rules to Strengthen Your Body and Mind, does exactly that.

We did care. We genuinely believed that we had a responsibility to do everything we could to keep them safe. Otherwise, what was the point of us being here at all? We also knew that we had to stamp out the Taliban wherever they appeared. This meant we had to walk a thin line. The insurgents took up residence in these sorts of settlements precisely because they knew that we were bound by our own rules of engagement. While we had a duty to preserve life, and acted accordingly, they would use the farmers and traders and wives and kids who lived there as both a disguise and a human shield. I found that despicable. He’s all about not letting any failure or success define him but then doesn’t go into any details as to why he went to prison in the first place, but goes into how brands and charities didn’t want to work with him after the factBut after halfway in or so it gets a little old hat. I started to wonder when he would say something I didn’t actually already know. And other than 2 brief segments it didn’t bring anything new whatsoever. Book Genre: Health, Leadership, Mental Health, Nonfiction, Personal Development, Psychology, Self Help

The brilliant new book from the multiple Sunday Times bestselling author that will explain the principles behind maintaining a healthy mind and body.

Customer reviews

Mental Fitness by Ant Middleton is a book going through various rules to strengthen one's mind and body, based on Middleton's life experiences in the armed forces and beyond. Covering topics such as confidence, failure, lies and emotions as well as individuality, this book allows the reader to see the part that each of these rules has played in Middleton's life and helps the reader to take action to build their own mental fitness. He also seems to be a bit of a hypocrite - there is one chapter where he says that he wasn't around for his kids and then starts to lecture the reader on how to be a good parent - and as I was listening to the audiobook, it really did sound like a lecture. Learning from other people's mistakes is one thing, but trying to make something sound easy when you've failed to do it yourself is completely different.
