I’ve lived my whole life thinking I’m dumb and incapable of simple things . Became a pothead and let it take over every aspect of my life . Thanks to people like jocko, David goggins and such have driven me to be clean from ALL drugs for 3 years and I’m now a carpenters apprentice building things that I never thought I could . Thank you for changing my life
I’m about to be 25 in February and I have to “step” and start working out and so I can enlist. Years of procrastinating is hard to break. I feel like this video said what I needed to hear.
“We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.” ― Jim Rohn
Jocko thank you, I’m 60yrs old and feel it some days more then others, and started 45 days ago, doing 30 minutes of stretching and 30 minutes of burpees and resistance moves, and just want to thank you for the many mornings of motivation when I needed to hear, just STEP forward.
Everytime I hear jockos voice drop near silent, and I hear the growl persisting through the beasts iron cage I shudder. That man has a certain voice that was meant to call other men to action by enraging that beast in us all.
Jocko's fearsome demeanor belies one of the finest military minds I've ever encountered. I've had the privilege of serving in six different SOF units in my Army-Air Force career; both as grunt and pilot. And I've simply never encountered one individual who pulls it all together as does this remarkable individual. The cancerous 'wokeness' that eats at our warrior bones will never let this happen, but his book 'Discipline Equals Freedom' should be mandatory reading everywhere from our NCO academies to our service academies.
I've been on the path a week over a month. At that momth mark I was down over 20 lbs. 4am work outs. Work then more work outs followed up with a diet that consists of almsot zero carbs and sugar while maintaining a deficient calorie intake. I'm holding the line and by the end of the year for the first time in my adult life ill be under 200 lbs. No excuses just hard work. I'm 25 almost 26. I still have tons of time to do something. I won't look back. Jocko has helped shape my mindset and therefore helped change my life. Forever grateful, I am.
I was put into an actual leadership position 8 months ago. I've been listening to Jocko for the same period of time via books, podcasts and youtube alike. I would be nowhere close to where I am today without Jocko Willink. He is not just an experienced Navy Seal Commander he is a remarkable human being like so many before him that can clearly take complex situations and/or human behavior and make clear sense of how to address and or influence people to become more. Thank you Jocko for just being you, you have changed my life forever!
Keep it moving forward. Like David G Says Do it for you man and screw the haters. Motivating pot heads is Like Motivating molasses. Find some friends who are like minded and want to win. Today I'm working on my attitude. God help me. Grateful for the day. Today is a new day. Yeah I am a doer and not just hearer. Step Forward. We can do more than we're capable of. The mind is powerful.
When my Son and I were doing Exhibition Shooting we had a saying, "Can't is for losers and people who never Try." My Son has Chosen to Becomes a Marine, 5811 and my Daughter is working to become Veterinarian. They are working to make there Dreams a reality. Thank You for your Video's Jocko!
Thanks jocko Ive had the mind of a Kombat warrior with a humble mind of control mind over matter this started from young age watching war movies to doing the real thing it's taking years to get over the war past but realize it will always be apart of me till I die
so true any fear u got best way to overcome is turn, and run right into what scares u most cuz evrything beneath that u face is dust under the bridge guy rules. his words inspire and we should thnak the lord above for letting us in on that jem he gave us.
Jocko is the man hes got his finger on the pulse on what thef it takes to lead and he doe sit with class, discipline, regiment, respect, by example, passionate and most of all an awarness for everything evryone else isnt aware of. god created a friggn jem and the dude is a person if i had a son id point and say son thats the man right there u wanna emulate a close as u can oooh rah
Luke, I just wanna say this just to fix your perception a little bit. I don't really think he will say himself that he is a natural born leader. He might be ordinary growing up, but as he entered military, that was where he started truly developing as a leader. But nonetheless, he is inspiring. I agree with what you said. I just happened to understand his humbleness, that I am pretty sure he won't say he is a natural born leader.
Jocko is the leader America needs to day. I would never ask someone to take charge of the country, that’s not my place. However I think jocko could help stick the ever growing divide amongst us all. We need strength. We need hope. And we need leadership. Thank you, for everything.
I'm going to meet this man pretty soon. Be positive and give all glory and praise to our Lord. I believe in you I believe in the underdog..get up get out and get it!
Jocko has that affect on me too. He stirs something in me that I can only describe as deeply human, a sense of purpose and belonging to something much bigger than me.
Thata what it is. A mission. We all need a mission for real. That satisfaction accomplishment. Something done for free outta you from you with no expectations. Thats the best feeling in the 🌎
Been 4 years straight working out everyday. Today, I almost took a day off. Was absolutely not feeling it but I went through the motion anyways. Glad I did. The streak continues.
Thumbs down? Really? What's wrong with you? I found this when I really needed it. His words mirror JBP. Get up. Shoulder your load. Step fwd. Move with a purpose. Do the best you can. Be the best man or woman you can. Do your best no matter what. If we all did that. So many of this world's problems would just stop... But people express themselves in outward overbearing ways because it's so much easier than taking a good hard look at yourself and fixing that. Fix yourself. Clean your room. Get to the gym. Work hard. Make your own space work right. Then slowly work on the space around you. Don't scream about how to fix the world when you can't even make your own bed. Don't tell me how to run a business when your straight out of your liberal arts education and never worked a shift. Let alone a double or 24hrs straight. You need to fix yourself first. Thank you jocko...
Imagine that. A world where no excuses were made. Oh I can't get a job. Bull shit. You just don't want to do what's needed. Oh I'm a single mum with 4 kids to different dads. Your problem. Get up and get to work. Oh I have this problem. Good. Step up. I can't do that... Slap. Move...
No more welfare. No more assistance for the unworthy. I live In a town full of it. One of the most beautiful places in the world. Dragged down and ruined by the lazy and unwilling. If they just got up and did what they needed to. They could fix themselves. Jockos podcasts should replace the pathetic excuse for highschool guidance counseling...
its sunday evening, 7:55pm, ive just meal prepped for the whole week. Im sitting in front of my computer listening JOCKO is exactly what i needed to get a head start on the new week. oh yea !
Jocko is the man! Breaking people out the cycle of weakness, I am grateful this man exists. Powerful words from a real dude, I hope people take his message and practice it and show others the path. Thank you Jocko.
I feel upon this video while watching Jordan Peterson. I am so glad i saw this. I am 30 years old and still scared to get of my known bubble. I am truly scarred. Watching these videos are super inspiring.
What you said about the patches in the beginning is so important to me. I've worked under so many petty, fearful and incompetent leaders in my life and none of them had the stones to just drop it when it comes to certain things. Instead, they ruin the culture that makes a team strong out of a perverse and cowardly sense of self preservation. The first thing that I would have expected based on prior experience is that you would have just punished those men horribly. That's not what you did though, you did the hard thing, the good thing and that's something that I think people need to learn about leadership and it's something that I respect you absolutely for. It's not about you, it's about them and if some petty bullshit that bruised your ego a little bit is enough to make you forget that then you are not a leader or you at least have a lot to learn.
As I try to understand about the lines in my life, the challenges have almost consumed me beyond recognition. Thank you for the fire support Jocko ❤️✌🏾
Thank you for everything you have done Jocko I mean that truly and it is because of people like you that our country is still alive (sorta alive) because YOU KEEP IT ALIVE and always will
Thank you Jocko. This is very motivational. Reminds me of my cadence in the Marine Corp days. Most people think that the military degrades you and knocks you down. IT IS EXACTLY the opposite. They build your confidence beyond any thing in the world, and because of that I have achieved much more than I ever thought i could. Semper Fi.
Being a women, I appreciate REAL MEN like Jacobo who step up and face fear rather then allowing fear take control of you. Simply put on your big boy pants and take charge of everyday of your life. ☺️
I am definitely my own worst enemy... To listen to what you say is more therapy to me because i do have these same thought processes. I have always been taught by my father, if you shake a mans hands over something you do it..thankyou...i hate quitting i have osteopenia, my c4-c5 is fused..so what the hell else is gonna stop me now..thankyou bro!!!!!
If your shooting a arrow at a target, do you focus on the other things or the target? Same goes for life and your goals and visions God has given you. Focus on that vision and all things will come to together naturally.
I appreciate and respect you, sir. Thank you for the assistance in lining myself up to become better, to hold my line. Always work to to be better... never accept mediocre...
Don't hesitate and step forward I give you trust, when you make wrong , I say I did not give you the right direction.. Mate, you are a pretty good person to learn from... About anything Cheers
I wish I joined the military.... I forever regret being to much of a coward. I think every man has some type of regret not joining. My regret is significant.... I work a job I'm completely unsatisfied in , with people I'm unsatisfied with. No brothers , no comrodery , no fight, no success... I made excusses and live with them everyday. Now instead of fighting on a battlefield I'm fighting myself to stay alive .
