Book Review: Never Give In by Scotty Mills

Lessons In Leadership as a Commando: The Remarkable Journey of Scotty Mills

"I don’t like the word failure—I see it as learning. Let’s fail fast, fail often, but take the word failure away and replace it with learning."

'Scotty was a huge part of our journey coming together as a team' Gareth Southgate, England manager.

In Never Give In, former Royal Marine Major Scotty Mills blends personal experiences from his remarkable life and career, from the streets of Peckham to the world's stage with inspirational advice and insights to provide his 12 Commando Rules for Life that could help anyone to do better and reach their targets.

A sudden downpour while Scotty Mills was walking down a street in South London sent him diving for cover into the nearest shop. It turned out to be a recruitment centre for the Royal Marines and, after a few minutes' conversation while waiting for the rain to stop, Scotty was hooked and signed up to join the elite force. It changed his life and set him on a new direction that would end up with him leading the Marines on operations around the world, becoming an Olympic flag bearer in 2012 and dining at Buckingham Palace with the Queen and the royal family.

Scotty shares his lessons of performance and resilience with the reader, inviting them into the secrets of elite culture. His compelling story is one that combines tragedy with remarkable insight about the power of human inspiration. Scotty has worked with many of our nation's top sports teams, helping them to achieve their goals, and in Never Give In he shares his methods with his readers to guide them to peak performance in all aspects of their life and career.

"I don’t like the word failure—I see it as learning. Let’s fail fast, fail often, but take the word failure away and replace it with learning."
