Heroic Decision Making - The Tham Luang Cave Rescue | Dr. Richard Harris

In the end, people keep saying to me, if you genuinely believe that it would 100% fail what you were proposing, why or how could you possibly have entertained that? And to me, the decision became very binary. It was either leave them to die a very slow awful death from starvation, exposure or infection, let alone the psychological terror that that would impart upon them.

Or you take them out and probably they'll die, but they'll be anaesthetized and asleep when that happens. So essentially, euthanasizing them. And I think there's a very pragmatic answer to that question, one or the other.

All right, welcome back, or welcome to, if you're new here, to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Michael Gervais, and by Trade in Training, I am a sport and performance psychologist. And the whole idea behind these conversations is to learn from people who are committed to both their craft and their inner life. We wanna better understand what they're searching for. We wanna know their psychological framework, which is really how do they use their mind? How do they make sense of the world around them, themselves included? And if you wanna learn more about how you can train your mind, it's just a quick little reminder here to check out the online psychological training course that I created with the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, Pete Carroll. And you can find that at findingmastery.net forward slash course. Basically what we do is you just pull back the curtain and show you just like we train world-class athletes, how they train their mind. We do the same for you. We show you how to do it.

Finding Mastery is brought to you by Neurohacker. There's a good chance that you're interested in aging well. And if that's the case for you, it's really important to understand a bit of the science behind aging. You might have heard about senescent cells, often referred to as zombie cells. These are old worn out cells that linger in your body, consuming energy and nutrients without contributing to your health. So as you age, these cells accumulate, leading to common aging symptoms like decreased mental and physical energy, slower recovery from workouts, joint discomfort, less flexibility and so on.
