    Listening to jocko talking about not letting your feelings rule your emotions really hits home for me as I lost my wife a year and 3 months ago on the 23rd. I’ve been off the rails with my drinking and I needed to hear this to help me move forward. I started a no drinking during the week program and today will be day 4 of not drinking during the week. This helped me solidify that I will not drink during the week and maybe expand on it.

    Wow, that ending was so powerful. The silence speaks volume of what Jocko has gone through and continues to carry with him through life. And i think that's one of the most important lessons he tries to teach: life won't be easy, but you have to keep pushing. Not just for your sake and the sake of those you love around you, but for the ones that have sacrificed and fallen who will never get the opportunity to. Truly powerful.

    I'm 68. female, train at 4 am and still train bodybuilding style. I used to weigh 110 as a teen. Now 125, 5 feet and buff. No it doesn't just happen. This sets the pace. I challenge myself for two hours. Loving calisthenics and boxing, just added those two things and I have rediscovered the "monkey bars". I quit being self-conscious. I have earned my place at the playground! My attire is a simple pinkish plaid with tights or sweats. No, I don't show my stuff. I'm not competing like that. But I know I'm one of the strongest women in my gym. The kids just move out of the way. I'm not snobby either, they just move. It feels good to not be on medication or need help getting up. I am so grateful. Reduced anxiety? I feel good about myself. The anxiety, I have learned, is outside of me. Breath it out. Oh and stay hydrated. It really does make a difference too.

  • @KaylaJo96
    @KaylaJo96 13 дней назад +2

    It's really interesting hearing him speak from this perspective, because he's addressing people who shift blame by making excuses, whereas I'm used to hearing the perspective of people who come from a background of childhood trauma where their default is "Everything is my fault," who have the opposite trajectory in that they have to come to understand that they are not responsible for someone else's mistakes. Watching this it's clear he is able to identify his emotions and patterns (especially when talking about pattern recognition after multiple friends were killed), whereas someone with childhood trauma, specifically emotional neglect, often can't actually identify their emotions, much less notice patterns, without specific, focused work and awareness.
    I like seeing someone who, according to the beginning of the interview, did NOT face adversity in childhood talk about how he processes these things. I also appreciate so, so much that despite the horrors he saw, he does not put trauma on a hierarchy, but rather respects the subjective nature of the experiences that have a deep effect on people.

    I've learned so much from Jocko over the years-from his books and podcasts. He relentlessly puts the ball back in YOUR court and I love him for that. And it sucks. And it hurts. But you know it's the RIGHT thing to do; the only way forward. Remember, don't dwell. Embrace the emotions but don't let them embrace you. Regrets are worthless unless you learn from them. Onward! 🇺🇸

    This is moving and Very highly inspiring! Thankyou Jocko for your service and your broad view of all you have touched on here and all the time everywhere else. And what is farther of a reach then a lot may not understand or do but when you point out the importance of “Keeping an Open Mind” especially coming from the continuous positions you are in I APPRECIATE tremendously because for those who may not understand the full context of what it means to practice that exact thing, I feel from your perspective(s) they may be blessed to have just that after hearing it from you and your field of service to our Nation! Much Love Jocko and to all who are now before now and after for all your services to us and our great nation !

Retired after 25 years, the best time of my military life. In a speech right before deploying from Coronado, and I quote “ You’re about to enter a battlefield and war will make you grow up quick, You have to grow up now”, we were a very young group. “ go out and have some fun and have a few drinks and if you get into a fight, don’t stick around to admire your work.”

    Wow, that was a good one. It's so good to have a constant source of highly accomplished people to give me the inspiration to everyday become a better me.
    What you are doing is what led me to start a business that I just sold a couple of weeks ago and start another business. (Two going at the same time for a while). You are changing people's lives for the better. I'm somewhat new to your channel, but you are adding to the collective of positive messaging that's out there.
    Years of putting the right stuff in my head and, most importantly, acting on it. Has put my life on a totally different trajectory.
    So, thank you. Thank you for what you do, and being so very good at it.
    The ones that really want to make a change will listen, and they will take action.
    Unfortunately, most people won't do anything. They'll just wish, complain, blame, and vanish into nothing.
    That being said, just realize that most people won't understand what you're doing. They're not bad people, they just don't understand. To them, it's all fear and scary stuff. Stay the course, collect the reward, and ignore the distractions. Get it!!

    You don’t need to be a man to run a business or do a thing else. If it’s mental task, focus on doing it good instead of “doing it like a man” . It’s hard enough trying to do something well, without trying to do it good “as a man”. From a old genetic man who got through life well without trying to be “a man” . I lived my own version of masculinity, reliable, stoic, and there in time of need to family and friends and provide when needed. Your version can be what you can do best. Not every man is designed to be a navy seal and that’s fine.

    There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all. Peter Druker.
    You can block emotions and apply discipline to climb to the top of the ladder, only to realise it’s against the wrong wall.
    Hence, the mentality of war. A hand full of psychopath’s send millions of their own people to the grave and convince them it’s honourable.
