Character building at its best,

The Green Beret in You: Living with Total Commitment to Family, Career, Sports and Life
Mr. Giduck and his associates do an outstanding job of describing in simple "real" speak what it means to make a commitment to life. We will be using his book as a model for character building with our high school students. All educators should read this book as they ponder how to build character in America's youth and in themselves.

An Inspirational Book,
By
This review is from: The Green Beret in You: Living with Total Commitment to Family, Career, Sports and Life (Paperback)
The Green Beret in You is both entertaining and inspirational. The book provides many insights about one author's experience as one of the most elite warriors in the world and explains how the lifestyle learned by green berets can and should extend to everyday life. The authors remind us of many of the principles that make one's life worth living. Take courage, for example. We all experience fear as a natural response, but warriors will go out of their way to engage in activities that force them to confront and deal with their fears. Another principle - recognize and live up to your responsibility to family, friends, and community - could help counteract the growing insular nature of today's American culture. Many of us go about our lives trying to improve personal happiness while minimizing risk of personal harm. But how many of us actively attempt to improve the lives of those around us, and are willing to put ourselves in harm's way when someone less capable of defending him- or herself is in need of help? This is exactly the type of thing that this book reminds us to do, and demonstrates that it is a way to bring the meaning that so many of us are searching for into our lives.

How to create a life for everyone in America today.,
By Linda Cox (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Green Beret in You: Living with Total Commitment to Family, Career, Sports and Life (Paperback)
Let me start by saying I'm a housewife in a small town in Colorado. I also have a keen interest in history and how it is affecting us now in this time of terror and jihad. But when I was given this book to read I didn't really feel it would apply to me. I couldn't have been more wrong. This book offers for something for every man, woman and child in this country. For men, it asks you to look inside yourself and decide what is important enough to take a stand on. For women, it gives you information on safety, and who your "life team" really is, and how to create it. (How many of your friends or family will REALLY be there to do something that counts when you really need them)? For children, do your parents know how to keep you safe, including in a case where your school is attacked? What I know is that some parts of this book were written as if they were written for me, and others showed me better parts of myself than I have ever been able to find by myself. Don't be put off by the title, it is not only for Green Berets, but for America. Many lessons to learn, and perhaps like me you will find something deep inside of you that is stronger, better, and more willing to stand up for what you think, and what your life team needs from you. Thank you John and Andy for creating a better person in me. I hope that more Americans will read it and start to find out who and what they are and stand for.
