Walking healed me, physically and mentally.
I don't think you understand what he's talking about, it's a metaphor and it's not really about walking
Yeah I understood it metaphorically but my answer was a literal one, a declaration, if you like.
@@neshifuturo The amount of people in the comments who don't understand a metaphor is disturbing.
yes......no doubt......then....adding humming to the walking kicked it up a whole nother notch...... you get the big uptick in nitric oxide, but you also get a really nice chest vibration going after about 15 minutes that is almost hypnotic… It starts to feel like a battery that is pulling you along… Good stuff......
Ah yes the old humming trick. Made all the better by having both index fingers firmly stuck in your ears.
Action creates fresh reality.
I like that idea. Nice
This is the basic aspect of the OODA Loop which was created by an Air Force fighter pilot during the Korean War. You Observe the situation. You Orient yourself towards that situation [you physically or mentally face it]. You Decide to Act. And finally you Act. If you do this faster than the opponent, the opponent is now constantly reacting to YOUR situation and is behind the curve. In your own situation, if you do SOMETHING, then your individual situation is responding to YOU. You have a small particle of control. Repeat the activity of ACTING and those particles become bigger and you'll start to fee the power of your own agency.
@@donaldball6671 Thanks for that info. I've never heard of the OODA loop before. Going to read up on it
Sounds made up.
The lesson is start doing rather than thinking. As you are doing you will think, correct, readjust and keep moving toward your goal. Spending excessive time trying to formalize this path before walking is wasted time and energy. Excellent analogy.
Walking is the deepest form of meditation

Maybe for you buddy. A lot of people including myself find walking to be boring. Tennis is meditation for me

„If you‘re going through hell, you better keep going.“
Winston Churchill
That’s not the actual quote, but close enough.
The most underrated exercise ever
If you want to have a healthy and long life walking is the key. My dad walked everyday until he was 85 and he had heart disease and asthma and he lived till he was 94. You can sit on your as and watch yourself slowly die or you can get up and live the healthiest live you can.
My dad started running marathons in his 50s, about 64 he needed heart valve replacement so switched to walking, and light lifting. Had another valve replacement at 74, he died two months ago, about 2 months shy of 85 bday.
The last 4 or 5 years, he had NO energy, was skin and bones. Didnt walk except like once a week he would do a few laps inside his house.
I dont think exercise helped my day, especially the marathons. I think that strain on his heart caused the heart valve to leak requiring surgery.
Also i have a cousin that ran marathons, and much much younger than my day by 26 years, and he needed heart valve replaced twice also. They only last 10 years.
Walk, but stay the heck away from running long distance. Hell i wouldnt run a mile after seeing my day and my cousins experience.
I’ll take door number 3
@@DonFonzarelli-uq9yx - thanks for telling us that. Damned scary story, but we needed to hear it.
Good advice but this video wasn't actually about walking.
@@DonFonzarelli-uq9yx You’ve just came up with a great story for those to lazy to exercise. 👍
I love walking. It’s probably my favorite thing to do. It’s relaxing and invigorating while also free. Can’t beat it!
My grandfather woke up every morning and started walking. We have no idea where he is.
Poor gramps
😆💀
I think I saw him just up the road
😂
🤣🤣🤣
I don't know wht people are talking about "walking", it's a metaphor he used.
What he means is "JUST DO IT" what ever you want to do, JUST START AND DO IT stop analyzing things, and JUST DO IT.
OMG, TY. If you didn't post this, I was going to have to. Holy sh**. Even the title of the video... 🤔
Dang it. Fooled me then. I guess I was inclined to think Jocko said it cause of military marching/rucking. I do some rucking and it definitely helps clear my mind. I can't stay mad for 5 miles with weight on my back. Oh well....
Wow !! You REALLY nerd to walk
!!!
So don’t walk?
Jk good point
@@SuitedPup Walk after you think about the where and why and be sure you're not walking in circles like most people who never achieve anything. Walking without thought is ignorant as you may walk to your doom. lol
The start to every great journey started with the first step forward...
When in doubt keep moving forward, great advice
The magic you are looking for is in the thing you keep putting off doing.
Yes, good advice. Start walking. Do something, get moving. Sometimes its very hard because we are so overwhelmed, but just standing and being overwhelmed will not accomplish anything. I am talking to myself here. Ha, walking and talking to yourself used to be considered crazy. Now its how we solve problems.
Walking is a super power
With bad knees, I still walk, best to keep moving"
I had an old professor who when I went to him with a problem. He'd say, "Let's go for a walk.' He felt that if you walk long enough and talk long enough you'd figure things out.
I didn't realize I was approaching life this way until I watched this. Very simple. And simple is good.
That's a pretty good concept and analogy for life. It's like "Just do it" : "Just start walking"
Makes sense as in taking an action to advance your situation is necessary rather than trying to figure out your situation
Ha, walking is definitely a healthy thing to do, and helps give you time to think. I’ve gone on many 40, 50, 70 mile hikes over the past few years. My problem is, I think too much to begin with and never feel in the moment.
I think the “walking” this video is referring to is making choices and taking chances by going in new direction in life, not just “standing” by doing nothing and suffering in the same spot (mentally).
My mom taught me this when I was 4. So beautiful to hear this again.🌹
I needed this message desperately
That's why pilgrimages are so healing.
I need to do that. I wish I could pull a Walden, I always wanted to try it. I have let the worries and riches of life take over.
Walking clears your mind.
Then you will be able to think clearly.
Then do what you know you should do to help get solving your problems.
Trust in Jesus he’s always there beside you.
Go in his strength.
Amen

What good are miracles?
Superman can do miracles. Superman is a Supernatural Superhero.
Spiderman can do miracles. Spiderman is a Supernatural Superhero.
Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader can do miracles. Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader are Supernatural Superheroes.
The X-men can do miracles. The X-men are Supernatural Superheroes and Supervillains.
Here is what prevents the Bubonic Plague from killing people, from Wikipedia;
(Bubonic plague outbreaks are controlled by pest control and modern sanitation techniques.)
In the years 1347 to 1351, 1/3rd of the population of Europe died to the Bubonic Plague.
Parents would have been praying to Jesus of Christianity to protect themselves and their family from harm and children would have prayed to Jesus of Christianity to protect their parents from harm. Did Jesus tell them how to prevent Bubonic Plague when they were praying on how to protect themselves from harm? 1/3rd of the population died. The reason we don't usually have Bubonic Plague around is because of the modern sanitation and pest control. Was that to much for Jesus to explain to the Christians in Europe?
So what did the people of Europe need in the years 1347 to 1351? Did Europe need a Supernatural Superhero? Or did Europe need a Naturalism Hero with knowledge of Nature.
Most people of any age of humanity can write stories of Gods that can do miracles. The harder part is for people to be able to examine Nature successfully.
The Age of Enlightenment writers wrote about ancient Story Gods for the altar and for the throne, rule from both Religion and Government. That is why Age of Enlightenment Philosophers, directed us humans to Nature's God and not human created Story Gods. Thus Thomas Jefferson's "Laws of Nature and of Nature's God." Jesus of Christianity is never a Nature's God.
So true. Without Jesus, any fix is only temporary. But, Jesus does use people with wisdom, like Jocko, to give us answers at times.

Who the F is that?
Walking changed my life. I started doing it for exercise, but now I do it because I can. It is meditation for me.
I try to walk 15-20k steps a day or more and if I don’t do it for a few days I miss it.
This message is so essential
GREAT ADVICE
I used to walk regularly, flat ground for about an hour and also up steep mountain tracks well. I felt super healthy. I lost weight and also leaned up with a good diet. Low carb.
It clears the mind as well. But i have had set backs in recent years, initial and surgery and a motorcycle crash. 3.5 years worth at the moment. I will recover
@@herbertvonsauerkrautunterh2513 hope you get on that mountain track soon 🙏 🙌
Get back after it brother. You got this
Totally agree brother…my wife and I walk EVERY morning!
SEMPER FI from an old (but healthy) Marine.
I pray and go to church to talk to God, I hike in the woods to listen to God.
I like to wander aimlessly through the woods, meadows and fields with my dog, the Polish hound. Keeps me sane.
@@frankgradus9474 Yes, exactly. Dogs are a wonderful friend and gift in our lives!
God does not exist. It's only in your mind. Grow up !
@@bogdanpst How do you know ?
@@frankgradus9474 , by knowing that any contradictory concept doesn't describe a real entity. It's like spherical triangles. Let alone there's no evidence for any god, but the western one is against any sound logic or experience. That's how I know. Now, how do you know god does exist, if you do, of course ?
So profound!
Lolll
I read similar advice in a book about surviving in the woods. I applied that advice to my life and it really helped.
Excellent metaphor.
This is good advice and can be applied to the inner and outer journey ..
Power walking 15 yrs now saved my life
i walk +/- 5 miles a day, 5 days a week and i gotta say, its the most challenging time in dealing with my ruminations.... often times my walks end in rage and doom...and im 51 years old!
Easy and effective, yet people still won't do it. Many will always find an excuse, but for those who strive to keep up the grind, your effort will pay off! Remember, your body fails when you stop using it. The great words from Jack Lalanne the godfather of working out.
Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness.
- Søren Kierkegaard 1847
I like walking, though I enjoy swimming more. Either way, walk or swim meditating on God and you will feel His joy and comfort. With God all things are possible.

I don't think you understand what he's talking about, it's a metaphor and it's not really about walking
Me 63. Today is Aug 3.
So far this year I’ve walked 310hrs
FIRST: I totally agree ... I have always loved to walk and at age 70 I routinely walk 4 miles before breakfast everyday. SECOND: I disagree too. One of the most important pieces of advice I have ever had was "Don't just do something, STAND THERE." Walking can be an escape in the way that travel can be a fools paradise. Yes, walking is like breathing ... essential but not sufficient. Look, listen, patiently watch . Watching, asking questions and investigating are essential too. For example: If you are troubled by a reoccurring nightmare, you can get up and walk it off ... or you can ask the nightmare to show you its' boundaries ... is ever anything new with it? Does the nightmare get the same response all the time? Can you open new doors for the nightmare or is it limited? I LOVE to walk .... but, it should not be turned into some an escapist drug.
This can literally relate to so many things in life, but it is not about actual act of "walking".
So many people misinterpreted it!
Interesting analogy! Hmm. Thanks.
Yes Sir 👍
What a perfect metaphor, I can’t think myself into different action, but I can action myself into different thinking.
It’s great that actual walking helps people, but looks like a lot of people didn’t actually understand the video, or didn’t watch it
Super! ❤

Little personal experience note real quick... any of yall ever legitimately been lost in the woods without anything? I have once and you end up walking in circles. What if there is now downhill? No stream? No river? No road? Even when i real focused and thought i was getting somewhere i was getting nowhere. I eventually found a road but it was at the bottom of essentially a 30-40ft cliff. I was lost for hours and i was more or less in someones "back yard". Their yard was up against woods and i went walking around in there before everyone woke up so no one even knew where i was and my phone was in the house charging. At some point 5 or 6 hoirs later i heard a faint sound of someone yelling or laughing and honed in on that and started walking that direction. Id stop and wait and hear something and kept going until i popped up in my friends yard in a totally different area than where i entered. Real fuckin easy to get lost in the woods.
58 years old and outside of some minor messing around in my teens l have yet to actually "drive" a motor vehicle. All by choice. Walking is amazing for the mind even if you are doing it in a busy city as opposed to a nice forest. Jocko is correct.
Always thought people in nyc have it made. You can live just fine with no car, walk, or subway and you can get anything, do anything.
However, people living in the middle of nowhere need to drive. It is just to damn far to go anywhere.
this video is not about walking though
I came here to say the same 😂
So is that all you got out of this video? People see things differently sometimes.
Stupid post of the week goes to Band Sank 🙄
Yes but most of people just don't get it in comments.Is about take action and find a solution. Lot of them say that walking healed them :D
Thank you. I’m shocked at the amount of people not comprehending this. It’s like they live in an alternate reality.
I clicked thinking walking might solve my marital, financial and health problems, after listening to the advice I decided I would prefer being lost in the woods as my main problem.
This scenario literally played out years ago in Maine. Appalachian Trail section hiker Christine Largay left the trail to relieve herself and became lost. She literally perished in her tent waiting for rescue. If she had only picked a direction and walked she would still be alive today. Inaction was her demise.
Walking has solved all my problems... Along with a lot of other people, I had a job for 30 years that kept me behind a desk.
I used to run for exercise when I was younger, but my knees could not handle it, so about 15 years ago, I started walking regularly. These are not your leisurely strolls through a local Garden where you stop to smell the flowers. I generally do a mile in about 17 minutes, and I usually walk 3 to 5 mi a day.
I go out for an exercise walk early in the morning, and then I usually go to Chinatown and all of the local markets to pick up ingredients for whatever meals I'm going to make that day or week.
When I retired I weighed 176 lbs. That's a lot on a 5-ft 10-in frame, but I'm now down to about 155 lbs and I feel great.
I also started eating much less beef, chicken and pork in favor of more veggies and fruits.
I'm 64 years old, and I think I'm in the best shape of my life.
I agree
Yeah, well, I live in Phoenix and it's 115 with about 40% humidity
Jocko, Very good !
IT does help a bit...
I walk all the time for miles almost every night...
You just have to put one foot in front of the other in order to get out of any situation you’re in regardless if it’s good or bad.
I'm sure Jocko just walks & hits no specific strength-movements, having mastered 'The Art of Walking '.
ok been walking for two weeks now. its all uphill and its raining all the time. i turned around and it was still up hill and still raining.
I've been in the woods forever
There was a spanish poet called Antonio Machado that wrote: caminante no hay camino, se hace el camino al andar. Translated would be like: Walker, there is no way, you make your way by walking. That is the same concept Joko is talking here.
I was forced to give up my car 14 years ago. There’s no public transportation and can’t afford cabs. Walking has given me arthritic feet and ankles. It’s very painful. Even going a block and a half to my corner store. Walking almost two miles to my bigger store by the time I get back I can hardly walk up stairs. Walking occasionally is great. NOT when you depend on it and in all weather.
Went for a walk earlier today, coincidentally. Then a job application rejection, so problems remain 🤔
You must not have walked far enough
We were given legs for a reason. Walk
Walking, particularly in the opposite direction of your problems
Sometimes you have to go toward the problems.
Walking helped me..... straight off a cliff.
Wonderful
Thats why its written in books atleast 5000 years old- charaibeti, charaibeti!. In other words, keep moving
We have GPS now.
Hopefully before you went out in the woods you looked at a map and can recall some of the important features you saw like a road or a stream that ran parallel to the trail you were walking.
Dad always said it's easier to steer a moving vehicle. Never just stand still. Especially if you're lost or you feel lost. Start walking
Jocko is correct as usual.
Quite the contrary, if lost in the woods, go to a high place first, to get your bearings, look for signs of humans, etc.
Two guys in the woods.
Both saw the video.
One decided to walk, the other to stay.
The one who stayed said: "Dude stop! It's a metaphor! He's not really talking about walking!"
The walking one said: "But it's from concrete actions that we derive strength and insight for our abstract problems."
The one who stayed did not understand. He decided to not care, as he knew that he's not real but just part of another metaphor.
I got this from another user on youtube: your two legs are your greatest doctors. Walk. Walking is the best because you can do it over and over again for the rest of your life compared to running and weight lifting. Stretching is also important.
Walking is great. It will not solve all your problems.
He actually means that don’t get stuck in your life.
trying to think of a situation when i wake up in the middle of the woods, not eaten by night predators, whole and capable of walking… what had i smoked list night?
Same thing my parents used to tell me it's not going to come to you
My feet hurt 😮
Just walk. Walk away. That's it.
Always follow water going downhill, it should lead to a village
You should have been walking point on those nutty daylight missions.
What if i live in Florida and there is no downhill?
Context please. Is this about orientation or exercise?
I thought this was going to be about the benefits of taking walks
Planet
You followed water, the path of least resistance…
While this idjit is walking, those of us who stand and look around will find the footprints or tire tracks that show HOW WE GOT INTO THE WOODS IN THE FIRST PLACE and then follow those back out again.
There are always clues. Your prescription is best only when you specify there are no clues.
Solvitor Ambulando is solved by walking. 🚶🚶🚶👍🙂
What interview is this from?
I walk for the same reason I don't wear a watch. I don't have a watch.
comes in handy if one has a job
Comments about Walking; yes, walking is great .. if that's all you got from this great, But he's using it for a metaphor for "to search, explore, follow a find a path to "discovery & belonging" ..
Keep walking till you confront a pack of Wolves in the woods.
