On the night of November 21, 1944, deep in the Taiwan Strait, the USS Sealion faced overwhelming odds — a lone American submarine confronting a Japanese surface fleet. Outnumbered, outgunned, and operating in darkness, the Sealion’s crew turned danger into decision, and opposition into creation.

In this stirring episode of Happiness Through Creating, we revisit the only submarine attack in World War II to sink an enemy battleship — not to celebrate destruction, but to explore how creation can emerge from conflict. Through the lens of the Creator’s Paradigm, Brian reflects on how courage, discipline, and action under pressure transform both individuals and teams into creators of purpose and meaning.

You’ll discover how:

• Opposition reveals opportunity — creativity is often born in uncertainty.

• Action defines creation — decisive moments shape character.

• Purpose renews the past — loss and struggle can become sources of new strength.

• Happiness grows through mastery — fulfillment comes not from ease, but from creation under challenge.

The Sealion’s story is more than naval history — it’s a timeless reminder that even in life’s darkest straits, we can create light, meaning, and happiness through courageous action.
