Summary

Chris Osman has a myriad of incredible personal experiences to share in this week’s TNQ Podcast. He is a former Marine and a former Navy SEAL who participated in numerous classified operations, a husband and parent. He has experienced everything from incarceration in a Haitian jail to dealing with a rare, life-threatening disease affecting his wife. Chris currently owns and operates Rhuged, a direct-to-consumer ammunitions distributor. Listen as Chris shares some of his “Never Quit” stories.

In this episode you will hear:

I learned as I failed.
I couldn’t shake the desire to be specialized. I wanted to be tested to see if I could even do it.
The most isolated and depressed I’ve ever felt was being in a Haitian jail. I had zero control – there’s nothing we could do. Bare-footed with a shirt & pants, and that’s it.
My headspace was in survival mode.
I had never been so terrified. When I finally got on that plane with my passport on a commercial airline to Miami, tears were streaming down my eyes.
One day my wife started slurring her speech, and we learned she had contracted Myasthenia Gravis, an auto-immune disease that affects the immune system from the shoulders up.
One night while in the hospital, she was looking at me, and her eyes rolled back into her head. I quickly assembled the bag mask and called for help. I’ve never been through anything like that. It was a never quit moment.
You push forward by being the positive light in someone else’s miserable experience.
You gotta be a rock for your people.
You can’t bail on people when it gets to be the hardest part of their life.
It doesn’t matter how much money you’ve got, you can’t be a Navy SEAL. You gotta put the work in.
No matter how much someone would pay me, I’d never put myself back in a position to work for someone else.
My goal in life is to never work for somebody else.
