The reason is article 5 also states: “This article is complemented by Article 6, which stipulates: „For the purpose of Article 5, an armed attack on one or more of the Parties is deemed to include an armed attack: on the forces, vessels, or aircraft of any of the Parties, when in or over these territories or any other area in Europe in which occupation forces of any of the Parties were stationed on the date when the Treaty entered into force or the Mediterranean Sea or the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer.” In conclusion that means should any of the NATO force be attacked or killed on the territory of Ukraine the Article 5 COULD NOT BE TRIGGERED! Since Ukraine wasn’t place on that NATO forces were “on the date when the Treaty entered into force. For the sake of competition below both articles in full reading: Article 5“The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area. Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result thereof shall immediately be reported to the Security Council. Such measures shall be terminated when the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security.”This article is complemented by Article 6, which stipulates:Article 6“For the purpose of Article 5, an armed attack on one or more of the Parties is deemed to include an armed attack:on the territory of any of the Parties in Europe or North America, on the Algerian Departments of France2, on the territory of Turkey or on the Islands under the jurisdiction of any of the Parties in the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer;on the forces, vessels, or aircraft of any of the Parties, when in or over these territories or any other area in Europe in which occupation forces of any of the Parties were stationed on the date when the Treaty entered into force or the Mediterranean Sea or the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer.”]]><![CDATA[

It was published in 1984 but it seems to have been gaining more notice recently. I've heard someone say it's the most important book in the last hundred years and I can't say that I disagree. It analyzes the ingredients that are necessary for cooperative strategies to emerge and flourish, and is very useful for anyone interested in effecting change in an organization. I highly recommend it!]]><![CDATA[

Dear Jocko

I’m sure you know two SEALs on a mission off Somalia are missing.

I was honest with myself knowing there was no long term gain from competing. The game I was more focused about was earning college degree, finding a good job, buying a house, and raising a family. I feel like some parts of this podcast make it seem like it is okay to quit something if it does not meet the goals of the bigger picture. Is it okay to quit, how can you cope with quitting something you were once very passionate about but had to put it aside for a bigger game?]]><![CDATA[

Great story of a gereat man again.
At the end of the podcasts, you always emphasise the fight against slave labour. Which is very important. But do you know why China uses slave labour? Why would a country enslave it’s OWN PEOPLE? The answer is simple. They are robbing us. You see, if you take your production to China, do you think you own the production plant? Hello! China is still a communist country. The state owns at least 50% of your plant BY LAW! You don’t own jack. And as 50% owner, it has 100% access to the know-how. Companies give away everything for a few cents of profit.

Jocko: Just finished reading your book “Extreme Ownership.” After retiring from the insurance brokerage industry (NYC) for 25 years, I’ve had a lot of time to catch up on my reading. Your book was fabulous and had I still been working, I would have purchased a copy for every employee that reported to me at the time. You remind me of my Dad, a great Marine who fought in World War II (Okinawa and Saipan). Thank you for your years of service, and wonderful dedication to helping others. I will continue learning as I only turn 67 this year!! All the best to you.

You have a big part in the upbringing of my 7 year-old girl and 4 year-old boy, showing them what it means to be a man, a leader, and a disciplined human being... and a true blue American. Thanks EC for bringing the aloha spirit!After listening to the first half of this podcast, I wonder if any "alternative" sources had been consulted regarding Germany in the '20's and lead-up to the war, as well as regarding the aristocratic tradition. Regarding the first, I would like to see what you think about "The Unnecessary War" by Patrick Buchanan. It opened my eyes to nuances to the pre-war time and especially softened the movie-like caricature of Germany and its situation. He brings up many, cited, details that are never talked about; and as you can see he goes against the theory that Hitler was planning to take over the world... regardless of the training being done ahead of time (discipline perhaps)Likewise, an aspect that is often, deliberately, left out is the fear across Europe that what happened in Russia with the communist takeover, the abject brutality, the absolute destruction of life during Holomodor in the Ukraine in the early '30's, could happen in their country. While the fascist reaction to communism was severely overblown in hindsight, at the time there were communist activities in almost all mainland European countries, and why Mussolini, Franco in Spain, and the Vichy regime in France existed. For instance, Buchanan argues the possibility that Czechoslovakia invited Hitler to invade and help stop the communists that had overrun the east and looking to take over the entire country. Which they did many years later.In a great Hardcore History episode on WWI, Dan Carlin elaborates on how Germany was considered non "aristocratic" by France and England, with WWI and the Versailles Treaty less about laying blame and more about putting down a second class country. Often not reported is that there is documented evidence that Hitler refused to bomb London many times, until all the civilian bombing by Churchill made him capitulate. Also documented is that he respected England, and France. With these sources you can see a perspective that he didn't want Germany pushed around any more (Versailles), and that he was also dead set against communism. Dan Carlin also shows how all of Europe was afraid of Russia before communism, and Germany was at the front line with a uniquely evil mindset and leader. Please, whoever is reading this, don't twist this as a polar argument, that I must be siding with fascism and the Nazis mentioning these things. We need to be coldly objective to understand that history never a Hollywood movie script so we can avoid repeating it.The communist overthrow and killing of the monarchy, and then hijacking for the subsequent government, was the first of what could have been an all out war against the "aristocracy". You can say what you will, and war had been changing, but the "aristocracy", at least until Napoleon, were the people that fought for the peasants. They sent their sons, not the people working their land, for they understood the cost of losing their land. Finally, while nowadays you can look down on the "rich" sending their kids to college so they can move into the officer corps, in the old days the culture of the rich wasn't as frivolous as it is now. It was much more like the older culture of the aristocracy, that they were grooming the future leaders that needed to make decisions to preserve their culture against constant attack, not grooming them to live off a trust fund. Instead of "rich" or "priviledged", as my father and uncle went to college even though they were poor, you could say "upper class" or even better "educated". You behavior, not your bank account, meant more back then.]]><![CDATA[

Maybe some of the details were missed, and I'm sure the media messed up plenty. But the bottom line is we (LE) failed to enter the building and kill the suspect. The training curriculum after Columbine was all the same nationwide. If there is screaming/shooting, you go in. Whether it's just you or you plus a few others. You go in fast , hard and run towards to chaos. Better the suspect shoots at you than children or teachers. To have that many officers outside the building waiting for a tactical team is unacceptable. That's pre-Columbine thinking.However, after a long career in law enforcement I know there are certain truths. One of those truths is when tested, you fall to the level of your training. If you're highly trained, you perform at a high level. If you're poorly trained, you will perform at a low level. Training can be focused on different areas: Low liability/low frequency, low liability/high frequency, high liability/low frequency and high liability/high frequency. Too often PD's are focusing on low liability/low freq. Nobody is bleeding or dying here. The high liability stuff takes money, actors, time off the street. In other words, commitment from their city/town and the PD command structure. When budgets get squeezed (or defunded), typically the first thing that gets cut is training. Unless every PD has mandatory high liability training, we will continue to see failures like this one.Sorry so wordy! I get pretty fired up over this topic and taught it for a long time. It breaks my heart to see it still happening.]]><![CDATA[

Jocko got a lot of stuff right in this, and a lot of things wrong.

The Chief sounds like a dope, I agree. “I didn’t think I’d need my radio…” clearly inexcusable.

Do we KNOW there was continuous shooting while the cops were outside the classroom for those 40 minutes? I don’t believe we know that. I doubt it to be the case.

They still saying there were 19 cops outside the classroom waiting? What’s the chances that those 19 cops, who were from different jurisdictions, were cowards or blindly followed orders to not make entry? Isn’t it more likely there was information on their end (like NO shooting) that made them think it made sense to not try entry?

Street cops don’t have flash bangs. And street cops have ZERO breaching training.

What was the construction of the door? They said it was steel core surrounded by a steel frame and concrete. Designed specifically to prevent forced entry.

What was the window makeup for these classrooms? It seems illogical that none of these cops thought to look through the windows or make entry through them, IF it was possible.

The parents on the outside can’t be let inside the school in that situation. The perimeter needed held…that’s the cold reality.

Is it not obvious that most kids were killed in that initial volley of 100+ rounds that happened BEFORE the cops were there?

Let’s not forget that at least one kid was killed as BORTAC made entry. That’s probably what the 19 cops outside the classroom were afraid of…pounding futility on that steel door, causing the shooter to start shooting again.

Don’t Wait to Become the Person You Want to Become. “The Knock At The Door” W/ Ryan Manion. by Andy Orozcohttps://jockopodcast.com/2019/10/30/201-life-is-precious-short-and-unpredictable-dont-wait-to-become-the-person-you-want-to-become-the-knock-at-the-door-w-ryan-manion/#comment-6052<![CDATA[Andy Orozco]]>Wed, 08 Jun 2022 16:36:35 +0000https://jockopodcast.com/?p=79149#comment-6052<![CDATA[I recently started listening to the Jocko podcast. As I browsed The Jocko Podcast Website I was looking at all the books Jocko has covered in all his podcast. When I came across the book "The Knock at The Door." I automatically thought to myself HOLYS#!%. I know that knock all so well. I froze and thought to myself, I have to listen to this episode right now. I mustered the strength to press play. As I sat in my office at the prison I work at I was flooded with a gamut of emotions. From the opening reading I was thrown right back to that day as if it was happening all over. My brother, 1st LT. Osbaldo Orozco was killed in Tikrit, Iraq on April 25, 2003. In the last 19 years I have not cried like I did this day in my office. Every word read from the book and everything Ryan talked about I experience firsthand. For once in the last 19 years, I did not feel alone and lost as I have in the past. No matter the relationship I was in or who was in my life I felt lost and alone. I have never been able to connect with someone where they understood where I was coming from. I have mastered the way to mask my pain and my feelings. I have three other brothers but we have never talked about our feelings or that day we all found out our brother was killed in Iraq. Listening to this podcast I felt a connection I have not felt in a long time. Similar to that feeling a child lost in a grocery store or shopping mall feels when they finally find their mother they were desperately looking for. I still struggle with life and finding myself. My kids have had to pay the price because of it. Listening to this podcast has reassured me I don’t have to continue to feel alone or lost. I have ordered the book and look forward in reading it and at the same time I dread it. Thank you, Jocko, for putting this podcast together and THANK YOU Ryan Manion for sharing your story, thoughts, and experiences with us. You have encouraged me to write down my experience of The Knock at my door. Hopefully, in doing so it will allow me to break free from this dark windowless room I have placed myself in and allow my grief to transform me.]]><![CDATA[

I have been taking notes for several reasons. Primarily enjoying this as my son is high functioning Asperger but is really struggling with motivation. He is nearly failing school, poor sleep, awful sleep schedule, and wants to online game and watch You Tube, Twitch, etc. constantly. We have tried therapy and several medications, but there is nothing on the market to assist him in gaining concentration. I have shared some of what I learned about his cortisol pulse and ascidium rhythm with him. I plan on telling him something new everyday to hopefully gain his interest. He is nearly 18 and I have a lot of work to do to get him to be productive. Thank you again for this information. Also, as a police officer, I know all about the random intermittent reward! Thanks again.]]><![CDATA[

Have you considered interviewing former US military vets who have volunteered in Ukraine? My brother-in-law, Mark Hayward, a former Army Special Forces medic, just returned from 7 weeks in-country. He trained Ukrainian soldiers and marines on Javelin missiles and had to "adapt and overcome" in many instances due to lack of equipment and training simulators. US DOD refused to provide training simulators until challenged in a recent US Senate hearing. Mark was interviewed about this problem on CNN on 5/2/2022. He was also featured in a Wall Street Journal article entitled "Ukrainian Forces Get Crash Courses on Javelin Missiles from U.S. Volunteers" published 4/29/2022. In addition, Mark Hayward was a founding member of "Team Rubicon" that volunteered in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. Former US Marine Jake Wood told the story of Team Rubicon, a disaster relief organization of 125,000 former military members, in his book Once a Warrior.

Something stood out to me when you were going over this book. Somewhere in the episode, you mentioned Beowulf along with the alliterative verse that was originally written and translated into modern English. J.R.R. Tolkien (obviously the author of Lord of the Rings but also World War 1 veteran, Battle of the Somme) was one of the people who helped translate Beowulf into the modern English. He also uses alliterative verse all through his writings, as is also very evident in Chamberlains writings. Thought it was very cool you recognized this and pointed it out as well. It has an interesting way of really popping out at you when read aloud. Love the podcast, keep up the good work!]]><![CDATA[

You don’t know anything about us and our country. 99 percent of Iran people ( our fathers and grand father’s ) fought to change the corrupt system before 1979 , the Pahlavi regime. because our country was filled with sin and the interferes of America.theft of America and Pahlavi family. 99.99 percent of Iran people voted for the current regime . Your media and your freemasonry government of yours is lying as hell to you people. But it’s ok Jocko we Iranians are always under attack 😆 wether it’s the ISIS killing Shia’s or it’s your countries boycotts to destroy our economy. But I told you we will not loose. The devil and devils followers will loose. We Iranians people are under extreme pressure From your county that is hurting Iranian people by boycotts and other methods to destroy our country and we are suffering but that’s ok😁 if something is strong and beautiful it came out of suffering. We will get stronger and we will win. No matter if you American or European people don’t stand and fight with cruelty and tyranny that is being imposed by your country and your freemason governments on us or every other Muslim nation like Yemen or Palatine. We will Win. Be well all of you. God help us all .I prey for you to find the Truth. Good days or coming very soon. J and m are coming.

LIGHTHOUSES

The Earth shivered and sag,
the maw of the dread
roared in the dark.

Struck by the light,
by the sprinkle of hope,
lighting the sparks,
in our hearts.

Just silent whispers of fallen,
those gone before us,
giving us swords of reasons,
shields of the cause
and wisdom of seights,
of the grim path ahead.

Grey shadows of the dread,
hords waiting for bite,
We shiver in fear, naked in truth,
no weapons to grab, just wispers we hear.
Those fallen holds us in line
at whom shall we storm?!
ours brothers in front?!

Their faces we see in agony of light,
our fallen has bought us this magnificent sight,
do not let it fade, embrace the pain
since maw of the dread may devour it again.

Hi Jacko,

I am writing you through the comment section because I was not able to find an email adress I could write to on the website.

First of all, it’s an honor to be on the show (in case I make it to the podcast)!

My name is Thomas, 30 years old, living in germany. You already answered the question about how to get up early in a few podcast sessions, but I still have a rough time to make it a habit.

I need way more sleep then my girlfriend needs. Besides from that, my girlfriend is a pretty light sleeper, so almost every time I go to the bathroom at night or have an early alarm, it is pretty much guaranted she will not only wake up but take really long to sleep in again.

Even if I am awake early (not out of bed), I feel like “why should I get up already?”. Yes, I could work on a little programming project I do or play a videogame I like, but that’s stuff I could also do after work as well but does not motivate me enough to get up. It like my back is glued to the bed.

So, I feel like, my problem has to do with why I should get up rather than actualy doing it. I also feel like forcing myself to do it with willpower somehow (had several tries over the last 10 years, did not work for more then 2 weeks) would be the “Disciplin equals freedom” or “Extrem Ownership” way, but not the kind, paranting way to myself.

There was a time when I woke up at 4:30 am, went to the gym, had a shower and felt awesome leaving the gym at 6 am seeing people coming in later then me. But even that fainted after approx 2 weeks.

When I wake up early, I actualy feel really good and proud of myself. The last attampt was half a year ago, when I tried to go for a little run after waking up early. After one week, I cut my route short. After that day, I quit again.

I am not good at giving up. That’s why I am still trying to figure it out after 10 years of failed attampt I know that I have to make waking up early a habit before I add several other habits (otherwise its not going to work out anyway). I feel like, waking up early is the key to a successful life! Hope you can help me!

I kinda felt sorry for him because as usual Jocko dominated the conversation. Especially the last 15 minutes or so when the BIG PITCH for everything Jocko. Let's review: Jocko t-shirts, hoodies, f*cking boots, belts, hats, judo clothing, kids books, books by every Navy Seal who ever served, energy drinks (made by GOD, aka Jocko), corporate retreats, Jocko's gym, leadership training for psycho millionaires, by Jocko (of course). That's the short list. On occasion he will mention a product that he does not sell, manufacture, or hawk. However the product has to be made by a guy who killed twenty terrorists ( a lot of them bare-handed). won the Congressional Medal of Honor, and lived to talk about it (of course on Jocko's podcast). That commercial last about 2.1 seconds and you check to see if you didn't happen to hit the super fast forward button on your device. By the way there is only one guy alive who has done this so there is little hope that he will suck any of your disposable income away from Jocko world. Speaking of which if you bought one of everything that Jocko sells on his various websites it will cost you a cool $26,877.91. That is just on Jocko controlled sites. Irt breaks down like this, General Merch-4215.42, Energy drinks & Jocko Fuel-1431.82, Jiu Jitsu stuff-8,571.00 (Who f*cking knew wrestling clothes could get so pricey?) But the motherload is Durable Goods such as boots, jeans, belts etc that checks in at 12,495.78 hang on you can buy all the Jocko books that are out there for 163.89 My guess is that Jocko has not figured out how to nail you properly on that. Well just when you thought you were done with Jocko products f*cking Amazon has a whole "Jocko Products page" excluding his books. tack on another $299.64 for those products. Lastly there is a website called Red Bubble. You guessed it Red Bubble has a sh*t ton of Jocko goodies for a s little as little as 1.29 for a Jocko sticker that says; "Discipline equals freedom". I'm guessing that those folks are just ripping off the Jocko brand. If they are expect Echo Charles to show up for Jocko's cut. By the way Echo Charles is only a little less scary looking than Jocko. Let's face it if Jocko was in prison one look at this serial looking like killer everyone in the yard would part like the Red f*cking Sea when he walked through. Joe Rogan who is not exactly a puss* says Jocko is like a silver back gorilla who will break your neck for fun (like he did working out some tough guy in Jiu Jitsu) one time. Jocko also has a side gig where he lectures the likes of Citi-Corp, Shell Oil, Major League Baseball etc for reportedly 25K a pop. There is also the little chats he gives to the general public in theaters and arenas for an advertised rate of 30-150 dollars. I'll bet you a Jocko t-shirt that thirty bucks get you a seat in the f*cking alley next to the dumpster. In any event Jocko did win a frigging Silver Star and in my mind that justifies a lot t-shirt and expensive underwear ($62.00 a shot) sales. I could go on but frankly I'm just pissed that I couldn't convince Jocko to have me on as a guest for a book I wrote. It's a great book about a greater American hero than most. I did get a nice postcard from Jocko that said something along the lines of I'll read this one day. After this little love note I'm pretty certain that Jocko would have me on just so he could get me in his gym to "adjust my neck and spine". No thanks Jocko I'll just wait for the latest and greatest Jocko product like Jocko's Lear Jet for the newly minted millionaire or Jocko's adventure tours to Yeman "where we get it everyday" for 10k a day (plus expenses).]]><![CDATA[

I grew up not far from Hope, and my son even has a wrestling meet in Austin, MN tonight! A big takeaway for me, is that Mr. Larson is so grateful for the good things in his life, and that's what he focuses on. We have a lot to learn from the older generations. My dad was an army veteran, serving from 1968-1970. He was fortunate to get sent to Okinawa instead of Vietnam as an E5. He had just graduated from the U of M and married my mom, who was pregnant with my brother when he got drafted (Fort Campbell, KY). I wanted to join the army reserves, but my dad talked me out of it. It's something I've always regretted not doing. He just passed away this year from Alzheimer's, and was an amazing man. Thank you for always having great guests. It really puts life into perspective when you hear their stories. Thank you.]]><![CDATA[

I listen to your podcast regularly, and always find your content informative and inspiring. As a graduate student pursuing a MA in WWII Studies, however, today's podcast was especially important to me. Oral and written histories are absolutely essential for remembering the past, not just as the official recorders notate it to be, but as the everyday men and women making the history tell it for themselves. Having just observed the 80th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the men who fought the war on our behalf are dwindling, which makes recordings like today's podcast even more important. I don't often feel the need to reach out and comment on content, but I felt as though a heartfelt thanks needed to be extended for this contribution. As always, the sincerest thank you to Mr. Larsen himself, as well. I have read countless books on the war, D-Day, and Omaha Beach, but hearing those who lived it tell their own story is very humbling, and I am always amazed that anyone made it through. What always shines through is the humility of the survivors, which in turn makes it impossible to be anything but humbled oneself.]]><![CDATA[

When Mr. Larsen said his Dad was thrown in the city of Austin's jail, my mouth started to drop, but when he said he lived in Austin for four years, it hit the floor. There is a chance he and my Dad knew each other. By virtue of his position, everyone in town pretty much my Dad. My Dad's name was Duane Klingerman, who passed on in 2018. He had been drafted at the age of 17. Again, thank you so much. This one meant a lot.]]><![CDATA[

Every morning I get up and feel some weakness or temptation to complain, your podcast is there to remind me of men and women like Rob. There is simply no reason for those who haven't faced challenges like his to cry like a baby. Let's all just get tightened up and get some while there is yet time. Months ago, I turned my sons on to your work. Well received, but applied differently. They are all getting after it in their own ways. While I'm not the type to write reviews or comments, I had to post on this one (can I actually have a favorite episode?), as it pertains in several ways. My second oldest is in process in enlistment in the local Fire Department here in Memphis, TN. He has completed the initial written exam, and this morning had his first physical assessment, a 1.5 mile run. He has the flu, but was determined to not let that get in his way. After my own workout this morning, I was back at the house and he walked in the door. He crushed it, with an 8:10 time. Needless to say, I'm proud of him. Not for just a run, and not letting weakness stand in the way, but that he has chosen such a noble path and life work. This is a decision that you had (as much as anyone else) definite influence in.

We can see how US foreign policy has dealt with unfavorable democracies when a nation votes to profit from its own soil, such as Arbenz in Guatemala (fruit), Allende in Chile (copper), and Morales in Bolivia (lithium); it's a long list. Similarly, state-owned enterprise may be labelled "communist", or it may be built by the U.S. like in Japan or South Korea--it hinges on whether a nation will serve American capital. The United States is a capitalist empire, and profit is put before people in every sector, although suffering is largely outsourced (child slavery for Nestle comes to mind, but again it's a long list). Big business is, as it functions in our lives, big government without the democracy, without the representation, and it has long since taken over what we recognize as our government: it's a paradox with no easy answer, but most nations with an ok amount of wealth have struck a balance that's tilted way more towards the freedom of average working families than the USA. That's why most young Americans can't relate to the sense of freedom and self-determination that so many non-Americans take for granted: for example, educational and medical debt, completely unnecessary (i.e. barely exists) in any free country, have weighed down such a large proportion of us that we can't afford to take responsible risks in a free market anymore. It all comes down to what you're saying about our citizens and treasure being exploited for profit. The love of money is the root of all evil, and after many years of studying American foreign policy and seeing its effects on the ground outside these borders--and trying real hard, even lapsing in denial, to come up with a different conclusion--I have to believe, however bad it makes me feel, that the USA is an evil empire. It sounds hyperbolic, but I can't try to follow Jesus on one hand and wave the flag with the other because the two are at extreme odds with one another.

They thought of commandos as primarily aggressive and determined soldiers. And sure they are … but more importantly they have special skills. So their notion was: use those people to train other infantry—because they’re just the same but better. This ignores that those guys—if they have been properly trained—have special skills. So at best they saw them as an elite, at worst as a suicide squad to throw into impossible situations on the conventional battlefield. This ignores that they could undertake special purposes—long range reconnaissance, coastal raids, sabotage far behind enemy lines, kidnapping of key enemy personnel, etc., etc. This is stuff that the average infantry soldier/marine doesn’t do and doesn’t need to do.The guy the U.S. Marines put in charge of “Raiders” was the son of a congregational minister who knew the Roosevelts. He refused to have his men trained by the British Royal Marines; he fired trained personnel sent to him; the training was irrelevant and perfunctory; many of the men couldn’t swim; he had no concept of tactics; when they came under fire in the Pacific, he tried to surrender to the Japanese in a panic, but the men he sent couldn’t locate a Japanese to surrender to … a complete debacle.

The U.S. Navy’s saving grace was it had no infantry of its own, so didn’t have pride revolving around what an infantryman was. It was task-focused: what do we need to do? Let’s train people to do that.

Thank you very much for your dedication and service to our nation. Since reading Extreme Ownership, I take full responsibility for mistakes I make. My wife is Chinese and I having spent time in China realized they are raising tough young men. If our young men (Americans) do not learn the principals of ownership then we will be weak in comparison. These lessons you are teaching are deeply important to our society. Recently I read a book titled “Freedom at All Cost” by Sergeant Daniel K. Luc who was awarded the Silver Star Medal for Combat Valor during the battle Loc Ninh in Vietnam, April 1972. Sergeant Luc was one of four soldiers who survived the assault of 5th VC division joined by the 272nd and 273rd artillery regiments, who were apart of the 35,000 NVA soldiers advancing toward An Loc. Loc Ninh was a small military outpost with a few hundred ARVN soldiers and a few Americans. The battle that took place was extremely brutal, even with the help of two AC130 Spectre gunships and B-52 bombers dropping CBUs and napalm almost on top of their position, Loc Ninh was eventually overrun and the few remaining soldiers had to fight their way through enemy territory back to An Loc. Sergeant Luc was an ARVN interpreter and in this book he teaches the history of Vietnam leading up to the war, the battles that took place, and how he and 500,000 other SVs fled the country on fishing boats after the communist came to power. Sergeant Luc eventually found his way to America, and is one of the only remaining witnesses to the events that took place during that battle. I do highly recommend you read his amazing story of survival, which we credits God Almighty for. Thank you and God bless you. – Jason W. Henry]]><![CDATA[

Jocko,

I discovered your podcast via the “Fighter Pilot Podcast” during lockdown last year and have really enjoyed listening.

Last month, I had a conversation with a young man in my son’s class who had just finished his freshman year of college. This young man had grown up with my son and i had coached him in several sports and he was part of our middle school carpool. To my surprise (and even more so my wife who witnessed the conversation) the young man thanked me for impacting his life in positive way and for lessons learned.

The young man then asked if I had any additional advice that I might share, and I asked;
“do you make your bed every morning”? The answer was not surprisingly a no and so I suggested he should start there. Ironically, even after spending 6 years in the military I had gotten out of the habit of making my own bed but started doing so again during covid. Make bed, work out, go to work – all added structure during a time when there wasn’t much structure.

I just bought 2 copies each of “Hero Code” and “Sea Stories” for me and my son. I bought THREE copies of “make your bed” – going to give a copy to that young man.

thanks again!

Steve Bishop

For you to explore and shed light on this topic that is at the center of the hearts and minds of the Armenian community is awesome. Thank you.

Comment on 286: The Indirect Approach is The Best “Strategy” in All Cases. by Jeff Eveyhttps://jockopodcast.com/2021/06/16/286-the-indirect-approach-is-the-best-strategy-in-all-cases/#comment-4354<![CDATA[Jeff Evey]]>Thu, 17 Jun 2021 15:42:31 +0000https://jockopodcast.com/?p=79882#comment-4354<![CDATA[Great podcast, especially this one. Great examples and I agree Operation Overlord is not an example of a direct approach. Two examples occur to me that might be utilizing a direct approach from a certain perspective, though I don't mean to contradict the central lesson. Alexander at the River Granicus personally led a charge into the front of the Persians after surveying the situation. Even that though may be considered indirect, in the sense that the Persians had deployed mainly on the flanks, expecting the main attack there as I understand it. So it was still indirect mainly I guess.I think maybe a harder example to contradict might be political leadership. In some places, I think America being one of them, people respond to direct leadership. People rallied behind Teddy Roosevelt when he took his message directly to the masses. He generally laid out his principles in straightforward terms, stated historical example, and inspired. That may be an indirect approach in a broader political strategy, in the sense that he was laying the groundwork for the greater interaction with the legislative branch, so it was still indirect at some times. But in rallying the people and in the election itself, in his direct interaction with the voting and broader public, that seems relatively direct to me.]]><![CDATA[

I’m not on any Social Media anymore (I use to follow you on Facebook & participate on the 0430 wake up/workout session but I am totally off any Social Media because it took up too much of my time and social media seems so nefariously “controlling” and I don’t like being controlled so, yeah, I’m off Social Media) so this is my only way to contact you on your recent podcasts, 273 & 274. I was originally going to just clarify some terms for Echo but these 2 podcasts morphed into philosophies discussed by both you and Echo in the podcast caused me to respond with my form of what I call “Public Journaling.” (Journaling my thoughts in a public discussion, which the receiver, yourself, probably discards when he receives it. ) First, Soldier is my favorite book (read it the first time, have read it 4 times). Soldier was the book that started me on my journey to becoming a Soldier and Leader myself. Soldier and LTC Herbert was a thorn in side of the Army in the 70’s as About Face & COL Hackworth was a thorn in the side of Army in the 80’s. I am about 12 years older than you and one of the many differences between you and me is that while I do share the Warrior Spirit you have, I entered the Marine Corps during the Post-Vietnam era and being in the military was seen as a negative by the youth of my generation. As a result, I kept that spirit subdued because saying you wanted to experience the Warrior lifestyle was a way to be ostracized socially, so I kept my desire to be an Infantryman quiet and never let any of my social circle know I joined the Marine Corps until the day I left for Boot Camp. I found out how anti-military my community was (Encinitas, California) after I graduated from Boot Camp when almost all of the people I grew up with (with the exception of 1) did, in fact, ostracize me. Good! I learned I had one good friend and I could also just be proud of who I was; a Marine. The anti-military attitude would change over the years as President Reagan & Chairman John Vessey transformed the military into an organization of respect again. In fact, I suggested Soldier to you on FB Messenger about 3 or 4 years ago, when I started doing the 0430 wake up with your Facebook Group. After your podcast, I have started reading my tattered volume of Soldier for the 5th time. Interestingly, while I have the words from the book practically memorized, I found your recitation on Herbert’s life growing up to be more interesting than I recall and I am spending more time reviewing LTC Herbert’s early life than just reading through that part of the book as fast as I can. But I thought I would share, with Echo, the origins of the terms that piqued Echo’s curiosity; Guerilla & Fragging. As you pointed out the term Guerrilla is a “part-time” or undercover soldier working in enemy territory. The origin of Guerrilla comes from the Penninsular War in Spain (1808 to 1814) Where the Spanish, Portugese and the British fought against Napoleon’s French Army and Guerrillo’s – Spanish “Irregular Soldiers” were used extensively to help defeat the French. That is where the term “Guerrilla” comes from. On a side note, the term “Commando,” which militaries of the world equate with elite soldiers, comes from the British military experience fighting the Dutch farmers/settlers of South Africa in the 1890’s. The Dutch would very much kick the living dog crap out of the British when the first Boer (the Dutch term for Farmer) War occurred. The Boers would form informal military units called Commandos whenever they faced threats from the various African tribes in the area they settled of South Africa. So when the Dutch in Europe lost a trade war with the British, the British got South Africa and ended up fighting the Dutch (who called themselves Afrikaaners). Why is the term Commando related to Guerrilla? Because Commandos are the main soldiers that go behind enemy lines and train Guerrillas. Guerilla’s can also be considered Militias or Partisans. The French Resistance during World War 2 against the Germans were Guerrillas. The NVA trained the Viet Cong, the Green Berets trained the Montangnards and the Hmong during the Vietnam War. The Iranian Quds Force, along with Fedayeen Saddam and former Iraqi soldiers were the commandos who trained the insurgents trained the Iraqi Insurgency during the recent conflict in Iraq. While the killing of your own leadership by subordinates has always occurred in war, the origin of the term “Fragging” was specific to the Vietnam War because of the primary weapon used to kill small unit leaders. The weapon used mostly during the Vietnam war was the M67 FRAGmentation Grenade, so that is where the term “Fragging” originates. Fragging is a major reason the American Military went to an All-Volunteer force in 1975 because there was a HUGE increase in Fragging during the Vietnam War. At the beginning of the Vietnam War, most of the American Combatants were experienced volunteers; well-trained professional soldiers that were trained & wanted to fight. As the war wore on, the population of military volunteers went down due to combat attrition or by getting out of the military. By 1968, the war in Vietnam became increasingly fought by Draftees; Soldiers who had been forced by law to serve in the military. So by the time LTC Herbert got to Vietnam, many of the Soldiers are Draftees who don’t want to be there and have to be forced to fight, forced to be disciplined and are in conflict with the Officer Corps in Vietnam, who are still mainly Volunteers and find the environment very hard to accomplish their military mission. When you read the book Soldier, you realize a major reason WHY the U.S. Military went to an All-Volunteer force after the Vietnam War. &, in my opinion, during our entire conflict in GWOT, our military maintained a motivated solid professional posture during this conflict as compared to the conflict in Vietnam because our military is voluntary (even when you have been "Volun-told") As another side note Echo, if you remember the law, when you turn 18, you are required to go down to the post office and sign up to be conscripted as a Draftee in the military. That law is put into place in case the U.S. gets in another major war like World War 2. There were many reasons atrocities happened in the Vietnam War, none of them morally excusable or justifiable. 1. The Vietnamese conducted War that way. The Viet Cong were notorious for committing war crimes against the civilian population, even before Americans increased their involvement in Vietnam. As a result, many American soldiers de-humanized both the enemy and the civilian population they were assigned to protect. So American soldiers would see Vietnamese civilians as less than human because it seemed that the Vietnamese didn’t care about each other and treated each other as less than human. This made it easier for Americans to rationalize de-humanizing the Vietnamese & rationalize committing war crimes. 2. The American soldier couldn’t trust the population, so in frustration, they committed atrocities. Civilians would lie to American soldiers, either because they were under threat from the Viet Cong or because they didn’t like Americans. Children would run up to Americans and they would have explosives that would kill Americans. As a result, it was a very dangerous and stressful environment to be a soldier. 3. Because so many Americans were killed with booby traps and died as a result of booby traps or sniper attacks, where the Viet Cong used Hit & Run tactics where you never faced your enemy, often times, an American unit would take out revenge on the first group of Vietnamese in a village they came upon during their daily patrols. They would take out their frustration because they would rationalize it by saying to themselves, “Some of these people are VC who probably set up the booby traps." 4. Because the U.S. military relied heavily on Draftees to conduct the war after 1968, due to U.S. Military attrition, Draftees didn't care and had little incentive to protect civilians and also fostered an overall resentment towards the Vietnamese population ("Why don't the Vietnamese fight their own Damn War! Why do we have to fight it for them!" attitude) which is another reason the U.S. went to an All-volunteer force after Vietnam. I have seen some interviews with LTC Herbert. He stated it all depended on the Commander. If a Commander ordered and then enforced a “No War Crimes” policy, there usually weren’t any war crimes committed in that AO (Area of Operations) However, you have to realize, A Battalion Commander was only on a 6 month Command Tour (Ridiculous!) So the next Battalion Commander might not emphasize adherence to the Laws of Land Warfare. Further on in your podcast, you and Echo discussed the post-war controversy surrounding LTC Herbert and the conflict with his chain of command, particularly with the Comments made by Major Grimshaw where he comes into conflict with statements made by LTC Herbert. I tried very hard to investigate more into the controversy surrounding Herbert, Grimshaw and Herbert’s chain of command (COC); Franklin and Barnes. I couldn’t draw enough information to discern what was the basis for Grimshaw’s accusations that Herbert wasn’t telling the truth. What I believe is that Generally, LTC Herbert told the truth about what he witnessed & the Grimshaw/Herbert inconsistency revolved around one incident. I guess the only conclusion I can draw from Herbert’s conflict with his COC is how they lived their lives after. LTC Herbert would receive his PHD in Psychology, become a respected member in his community and have a strong enough reputation to work with the local police department in Colorado. I don’t know what happened to Barnes. Colonel Franklin was relieved of his command in Vietnam, after LTC Herbert left due to incompetence and would later go to work for Wall Street in the 80’s after he retired from the Army, then subsequently be convicted of Securities Fraud in the 90’s and serve 5 years in prison. I think LTC Herbert came out ahead in the end. Enjoyed the podcast, take care.]]><![CDATA[

This is related to both episodes. I’m not on any Social Media anymore (I use to follow you on Facebook & participate on the 0430 wake up/workout session but I am totally off any Social Media because it took up too much of my time and social media seems so nefariously “controlling” and I don’t like being controlled so, yeah, I’m off Social Media) so this is my only way to contact you on your recent podcasts, 273 & 274. I was originally going to just clarify some terms for Echo but these 2 podcasts morphed into philosophies discussed by both you and Echo in the podcast caused me to respond with my form of what I call “Public Journaling.” (Journaling my thoughts in a public discussion, which the receiver, yourself, probably discards when he receives it. )
First, Soldier is my favorite book (read it the first time, have read it 4 times). Soldier was the book that started me on my journey to becoming a Soldier and Leader myself. Soldier and LTC Herbert was a thorn in side of the Army in the 70’s as About Face & COL Hackworth was a thorn in the side of Army in the 80’s. I am about 12 years older than you and one of the many differences between you and me is that while I do share the Warrior Spirit you have, I entered the Marine Corps during the Post-Vietnam era and being in the military was seen as a negative by the youth of my generation. As a result, I kept that spirit subdued because saying you wanted to experience the Warrior lifestyle was a way to be ostracized socially, so I kept my desire to be an Infantryman quiet and never let any of my social circle know I joined the Marine Corps until the day I left for Boot Camp. I found out how anti-military my community was (Encinitas, California) after I graduated from Boot Camp when almost all of the people I grew up with (with the exception of 1) did, in fact, ostracize me. Good! I learned I had one good friend and I could also just be proud of who I was; a Marine. The anti-military attitude would change over the years as President Reagan & Chairman John Vessey transformed the military into an organization of respect again. In fact, I suggested Soldier to you on FB Messenger about 3 or 4 years ago, when I started doing the 0430 wake up with your Facebook Group. After your podcast, I have started reading my tattered volume of Soldier for the 5th time. Interestingly, while I have the words from the book practically memorized, I found your recitation on Herbert’s life growing up to be more interesting than I recall and I am spending more time reviewing LTC Herbert’s early life than just reading through that part of the book as fast as I can.
But I thought I would share, with Echo, the origins of the terms that piqued Echo’s curiosity; Guerilla & Fragging. As you pointed out the term Guerrilla is a “part-time” or undercover soldier working in enemy territory. The origin of Guerrilla comes from the Penninsular War in Spain (1808 to 1814) Where the Spanish, Portugese and the British fought against Napoleon’s French Army and Guerrillo’s – Spanish “Irregular Soldiers” were used extensively to help defeat the French. That is where the term “Guerrilla” comes from. On a side note, the term “Commando,” which militaries of the world equate with elite soldiers, comes from the British military experience fighting the Dutch farmers/settlers of South Africa in the 1890’s. The Dutch would very much kick the living dog crap out of the British when the first Boer (the Dutch term for Farmer) War occurred. The Boers would form informal military units called Commandos whenever they faced threats from the various African tribes in the area they settled of South Africa. So when the Dutch in Europe lost a trade war with the British, the British got South Africa and ended up fighting the Dutch (who called themselves Afrikaaners). Why is the term Commando related to Guerrilla? Because Commandos are the main soldiers that go behind enemy lines and train Guerrillas. Guerilla’s can also be considered Militias or Partisans. The French Resistance during World War 2 against the Germans were Guerrillas. The NVA trained the Viet Cong, the Green Berets trained the Montangnards and the Hmong during the Vietnam War. The Iranian Quds Force, along with Fedayeen Saddam and former Iraqi soldiers were the commandos who trained the insurgents trained the Iraqi Insurgency during the recent conflict in Iraq.
While the killing of your own leadership by subordinates has always occurred in war, the origin of the term “Fragging” was specific to the Vietnam War because of the primary weapon used to kill small unit leaders. The weapon used mostly during the Vietnam war was the M67 FRAGmentation Grenade, so that is where the term “Fragging” originates. Fragging is a major reason the American Military went to an All-Volunteer force in 1975 because there was a HUGE increase in Fragging during the Vietnam War. At the beginning of the Vietnam War, most of the American Combatants were experienced volunteers; well-trained professional soldiers that were trained & wanted to fight. As the war wore on, the population of military volunteers went down due to combat attrition or by getting out of the military. By 1968, the war in Vietnam became increasingly fought by Draftees; Soldiers who had been forced by law to serve in the military. So by the time LTC Herbert got to Vietnam, many of the Soldiers are Draftees who don’t want to be there and have to be forced to fight, forced to be disciplined and are in conflict with the Officer Corps in Vietnam, who are still mainly Volunteers and find the environment very hard to accomplish their military mission. When you read the book Soldier, you realize a major reason WHY the U.S. Military went to an All-Volunteer force after the Vietnam War. &, in my opinion, during our entire conflict in GWOT, our military maintained a motivated solid professional posture during this conflict as compared to the conflict in Vietnam because our military is voluntary (even when you have been “Volun-told”) As another side note Echo, if you remember the law, when you turn 18, you are required to go down to the post office and sign up to be conscripted as a Draftee in the military. That law is put into place in case the U.S. gets in another major war like World War 2.
There were many reasons atrocities happened in the Vietnam War, none of them morally excusable or justifiable. 1. The Vietnamese conducted War that way. The Viet Cong were notorious for committing war crimes against the civilian population, even before Americans increased their involvement in Vietnam. As a result, many American soldiers de-humanized both the enemy and the civilian population they were assigned to protect. So American soldiers would see Vietnamese civilians as less than human because it seemed that the Vietnamese didn’t care about each other and treated each other as less than human. This made it easier for Americans to rationalize de-humanizing the Vietnamese & rationalize committing war crimes. 2. The American soldier couldn’t trust the population, so in frustration, they committed atrocities. Civilians would lie to American soldiers, either because they were under threat from the Viet Cong or because they didn’t like Americans. Children would run up to Americans and they would have explosives that would kill Americans. As a result, it was a very dangerous and stressful environment to be a soldier. 3. Because so many Americans were killed with booby traps and died as a result of booby traps or sniper attacks, where the Viet Cong used Hit & Run tactics where you never faced your enemy, often times, an American unit would take out revenge on the first group of Vietnamese in a village they came upon during their daily patrols. They would take out their frustration because they would rationalize it by saying to themselves, “Some of these people are VC who probably set up the booby traps.” 4. Because the U.S. military relied heavily on Draftees to conduct the war after 1968, due to U.S. Military attrition, Draftees didn’t care and had little incentive to protect civilians and also fostered an overall resentment towards the Vietnamese population (“Why don’t the Vietnamese fight their own Damn War! Why do we have to fight it for them!” attitude) which is another reason the U.S. went to an All-volunteer force after Vietnam. I have seen some interviews with LTC Herbert. He stated it all depended on the Commander. If a Commander ordered and then enforced a “No War Crimes” policy, there usually weren’t any war crimes committed in that AO (Area of Operations) However, you have to realize, A Battalion Commander was only on a 6 month Command Tour (Ridiculous!) So the next Battalion Commander might not emphasize adherence to the Laws of Land Warfare.
Further on in your podcast, you and Echo discussed the post-war controversy surrounding LTC Herbert and the conflict with his chain of command, particularly with the Comments made by Major Grimshaw where he comes into conflict with statements made by LTC Herbert. I tried very hard to investigate more into the controversy surrounding Herbert, Grimshaw and Herbert’s chain of command (COC); Franklin and Barnes. I couldn’t draw enough information to discern what was the basis for Grimshaw’s accusations that Herbert wasn’t telling the truth. What I believe is that Generally, LTC Herbert told the truth about what he witnessed & the Grimshaw/Herbert inconsistency revolved around one incident. I guess the only conclusion I can draw from Herbert’s conflict with his COC is how they lived their lives after. LTC Herbert would receive his PHD in Psychology, become a respected member in his community and have a strong enough reputation to work with the local police department in Colorado. I don’t know what happened to Barnes. Colonel Franklin was relieved of his command in Vietnam, after LTC Herbert left due to incompetence and would later go to work for Wall Street in the 80’s after he retired from the Army, then subsequently be convicted of Securities Fraud in the 90’s and serve 5 years in prison. I think LTC Herbert came out ahead in the end. Enjoyed the podcast, take care.

Hey Jocko,

While listing to this podcast I felt a wash of emotion come over me because it reminded me of the stories my elder relative told me as a child of his life.

He Vincent Smith grew up in a small coal mining town outside of PA. When Pear Harbor occurred he falsified his birth records, adding two years so he could join the military. He then drove the company cole truck to PA to enlist in the army, leaving the keys with a store clerk letting him know someone will be coming for these keys.

The line to enlist for the army was around the block, so he joined the Marines because it was a shorter line.

He was a member of the Marines 1st Division “The old guard”. As a jungle fighter in World War II, he fought in a dozen battles, among them–Guadalcanal, Tinian, the Tenaru River, Cape Gloucester, New Guinea, and New Britain.

He never spoke of the negative aspects of war, but instead told me only the fun stories. Such as getting a British LT drunk and getting “God Bless America” tattooed on his chest the night before shipping off to the Pacific.

I’m willing to bet you will find many unwritten stories of people like Col. Herbert and my family member Smitty all around cole country.

Thank you for this podcast.

Comment on 274: Being the Best. Can You Handle The Cost of Going Against The Grain? Is it Worth It?

The thing that really strikes me about this whole situation is that by the time the Vietnam War happened, American military leadership in Vietnam had grown arrogant to the point of delusion, and draftees, who didn’t want to be there in the first place could clearly see the hypocrisy and that they were just tools to advance the careers of some of these officers. Who would want to die so some arrogant bastard could get another ribbon on their uniform, or another star, or the next award or promotion? By that time, the true American warrior spirit had been subsumed by men who were intoxicated with power, and who had no interest or business being in or commanding combat battalions.

However I feel your statement above needs addressing and clarity to fill in the many gaps.Yes you and your CPO team were tasked to protect the Canadian Embassy staff on Operation Lobb, and did so admirably for the 5 months and on the lead up to the Embassy closing. Unfortunately when the Tripoli International airport got burnt down, this limited an extraction option for you and so the road move to Tunis was the only viable option available.Having already successfully executed earlier evacuations with some NGO staff during this period and the fact I had proven the road move route, this made me the perfect candidate. I was then contracted as a private security operator to assist the Canadian Embassy in the evacuation from Tripoli to Tunis.The operation was called "Beavertail" and this name was chosen by myself.With the British Embassy having been shot at the week before near camp 24 this was causing concern and worry, and so on the days leading up to the event I went out to visit the militias at camp 24 to explain the situation. I then did this with all the tribal elders in the major towns along the coastal road in Zawiyah, Sabratah and Zauara to ensure that they were aware of the situation and show courtesy to them.I also had identified safe houses along the route large enough to accommodate your team and vehicles should there be an emergency or you needed a safe haven/ stop short, this information along with the route were fed back to your team.On the morning of the evacuation, I moved forward ahead of your convoy as a SAP (Security Advance Party) in a soft skin vehicle and not in an armoured 4x4 as to maintain a low profile. I should also add that in my vehicle was also a cat belonging to one of your diplomats because your team refused to travel with it. This vehicle was a surveillance vehicle for me to be able to report back to your Team Leader the ground situation and act as an early warning system.When I got to the first designated waypoint I communicated with your Team leader (initials CW) that it was then safe for you to proceed and move off. When you got to camp 24, your reception there was very different from that the British had received due to the earlier meetings that had been conducted whilst you were back in Palm City.I continued communicating with your Team Leader through all the towns and checkpoints to relay back real time information, the atmospherics and any potential threats. I then waited at the FRV which I had designated, this was a communications tower passed the town of Zauara and just short of the border, this FRV was established so you could pack your weapons away and have a final toilet break before proceeding to the border.I remember waiting some time and concerned you were slow, when you finally arrived it became clear that one of the vehicles in your 6-vehicle convoy had an RTA with a local civilian. We both know who was at fault with that RTA and again not the platform to discuss. Yes I wasn't at that RTA however when we arrived at the border, the driver involved had pursued the convoy and was causing a situation that was bringing unwanted attention to the convoy and so I then got involved. As I collected all your passports whilst you all remained locked in your armoured vehicles, my local fixer was still having to calm down the situation with the civilian driver and buy us time to get you across before it attracted any unwanted 3rd party attention.When we finally got through the border, you were met by the Canadian Embassy based in Tunis and all obviously relieved that the mission was a success. Your convoy was escorted by blue light onwards to Tunis, myself in the soft skin was pushed out of that convoy and followed on later. On arriving in Tunis I continued to work to liaise with the fish wagons and ensure your equipment arrived safely.The following day you all flew home to Canada and myself went back into Libya. I charged only $7000 to pay the drivers of my vehicle, my fixer and the fish wagon drivers comfortably.This operation to me is much more important than being recognised with honors or awards, knowing 22 personnel got home safely to their families is what's important.Yes you and your CPO team protected your clients in the armoured vehicles on the road move from Tripoli to Tunis and that isn't being questioned. What you didn't see or clearly understand from the walls of palm city or your armoured vehicle was myself providing forward surveillance, intelligence and a security bubble around you from the moment I was contracted to the day you crossed the border.As a private security operator, this was a role that was carried out and executed single handedly.I shouldn't have to explain myself, especially on these means but if you question my integrity then I provide facts and details.Dean Stott (with a T not a C)(Retd: UKSF SBS)]]><![CDATA[

Hi Steve,

Firstly I must emphasise that I would never use platforms like this to discuss operations, and conscious they are not the place to highlight sensitive information. However I feel your statement above needs addressing and clarity to fill in the many gaps.

Yes you and your CPO team were tasked to protect the Canadian Embassy staff on Operation Lobb, and did so admirably for the 5 months and on the lead up to the Embassy closing. Unfortunately when the Tripoli International airport got burnt down, this limited an extraction option for you and so the road move to Tunis was the only viable option available.

Having already successfully executed earlier evacuations with some NGO staff during this period and the fact I had proven the road move route, this made me the perfect candidate. I was then contracted as a private security operator to assist the Canadian Embassy in the evacuation from Tripoli to Tunis.

The operation was called “Beavertail” and this name was chosen by myself.

With the British Embassy having been shot at the week before near camp 24 this was causing concern and worry, and so on the days leading up to the event I went out to visit the militias at camp 24 to explain the situation. I then did this with all the tribal elders in the major towns along the coastal road in Zawiyah, Sabratah and Zauara to ensure that they were aware of the situation and show courtesy to them.

I also had identified safe houses along the route large enough to accommodate your team and vehicles should there be an emergency or you needed a safe haven/ stop short, this information along with the route were fed back to your team.

I remember waiting some time and concerned you were slow, when you finally arrived it became clear that one of the vehicles in your 6-vehicle convoy had an RTA with a local civilian. We both know who was at fault with that RTA and again not the platform to discuss.

Yes I wasn’t at that RTA however when we arrived at the border, the driver involved had pursued the convoy and was causing a situation that was bringing unwanted attention to the convoy and so I then got involved. As I collected all your passports whilst you all remained locked in your armoured vehicles, my local fixer was still having to calm down the situation with the civilian driver and buy us time to get you across before it attracted any unwanted 3rd party attention.

What you didn’t see or clearly understand from the walls of palm city or your armoured vehicle was myself providing forward surveillance, intelligence and a security bubble around you from the moment I was contracted to the day you crossed the border.

As a private security operator, this was a role that was carried out and executed single handedly.

I shouldn’t have to explain myself, especially on these means but if you question my integrity then I provide facts and details.

My son and I have worked our way through the warrior kids books and really enjoy them, they are a great motivation tool. With this new Covid-adventure, we decided to do homeschooling with our son, because he did not do well with distance learning. I get up early, and work out, prepare for my day, and then try to wake up my son to do a small workout, and school work before I leave for work. I do this because I am afraid of him getting behind. He and his dad do a no schooling method, where they do not have structure but they learn about lots of different things, really what ever they are interested in. My husband has asked me to not wake my son up, because he thinks I will burn him out early. I do get kick back from my son when he wakes up, but once he is up we always have a good time. Do you think that pushing young kids early will discourage them from wanting to be the best they can be?]]><![CDATA[

When hiring, I always spoke to individuals and with a shortlist, I asked them for a step by step process to do X (listening how they explained and communicated).one example, the realestate industry has boomed for decades in Australia, which meant sales happened regardless of the sales person's efforts. Now the industry is in a down turn, and many do not have the basic selling skills, but i am sure the CV's look impressive. The sad thing is the hiring agencies, only want people with these skills.In a discussion with an AWS talent person last year, they informed me that every new person must be able to add one or more new skill(s) and capability to the team.

I think you would find the story of Australian Lieutenant Harry "Breaker" Morant very interesting and a good follow on from 232 and 233. Lt Morant was a member of the Australia Light Horse called the Bush Velt Carbineers who fell under the command of Lord Kitchener. As detailed in 232 and 233, the British Army were still using poor tactics and loosing 1000s of troops. Morant recognized this and began to implement new tactics, in many cases coping those of the Boers. Lt Morant always claimed he was acting on Kitchener's orders, but for political reasons Kitchener denied this. Morant's tactics were successful, but ultimately he was Courts Martialed and executed along with Lt Peter Handco*ck. I suppose the main lesson it is great to think outside the box, but be careful going against the establishment! There is a movie about "Breaker Morant".

My problem is that this person thinks that it is acceptable to coerce and intimidate others to change them to become more like him.For example, he often yells or becomes angry at other people when they make small mistakes or when they fail to perform unimportant tasks the way how he wants them to. He acts this way towards people in his life who are less capable than he is, and who don't know how to stand up for themselves (for some of these people, walking away from the relationship is not a simple decision either). I think that he thinks he is doing a service for other people by showing them 'tough love' and that he is doing it 'for their own good'.I also think that he takes a lot of inspiration from members of the military, who might yell and shout at each other a lot in order to improve themselves(like in Bootcamp). How would you explain to this person that, while it is ok to push and challenge himself, it is wrong to force other people to change even if it may benefit them in the long run?Thanks,Alex]]><![CDATA[

Hi Jocko,

There is someone in my life who looks up to people like the Navy SEALs because they push themselves to their limits, take risks, and get the job done.
I have watched this person work hard in order to become a stronger and more capable person himself.

My problem is that this person thinks that it is acceptable to coerce and intimidate others to change them to become more like him.
For example, he often yells or becomes angry at other people when they make small mistakes or when they fail to perform unimportant tasks the way how he wants them to.
He acts this way towards people in his life who are less capable than he is, and who don’t know how to stand up for themselves
(for some of these people, walking away from the relationship is not a simple decision either).

I think that he thinks he is doing a service for other people by showing them ‘tough love’ and that he is doing it ‘for their own good’.
I also think that he takes a lot of inspiration from members of the military, who might yell and shout at each other a lot in order to improve themselves(like in Bootcamp).

How would you explain to this person that, while it is ok to push and challenge himself, it is wrong to force other people to change even if it may benefit them in the long run?

Thanks,

Alex

The very least I can give you, and ALL OF THE MEAN AND WOMEN, who served, or gave all they had in service to our country is an unparalleled level of gratitude. I have now moved to Canada, where we soon found out there is a very different level of appreciation for the people who serve in our military. I have always taken an opportunity to say "thank you for your service" to members of our military. In listening to oh about 45 of your podcast in the last 8 weeks. Thank you for your leadership and your contribution. The first podcast I listened to left me so fired up I went down stairs and knocked out 100 burpees. My daughter came down stairs at 10 pm, and asked if she could do some burpees with me. I said "get in her and lets go". After 2 weeks of listening to your podcast, I bought the book "The Way of the Warrior Kid". My daughter (5 years old) wakes up and knocks out push-ups and I have her on "pull up negatives". Both my girls (7 & 5 years old) have expressed goals of swimming on their own by the end of this summer. (6 weeks away). You are inspiring me to shed the softness that we see is befalling people of North America. As a chiropractor I work with many veterans, and I see what is left of some veterans when they return home. I see some who are high spirited, and others who are struggling to adapt back. 2 months later, I have told many about your podcast because I know they can connect to what you are saying on a more profound level than I will ever know. You give me hope for a stronger, healthier future. I love your guests as many are servicemen who are succeeding in the civilian ranks and business. I am sharing the information with my patients. Thank you for what you and your team do. As soon as they open the borders back up I will be at one of your events!!]]><![CDATA[

With Dave Berke by Adam Fimbreshttps://jockopodcast.com/2020/07/22/239-its-critical-to-learn-lessons-from-different-angles-avoid-the-trap-with-dave-berke/#comment-3498<![CDATA[Adam Fimbres]]>Thu, 23 Jul 2020 01:45:30 +0000https://jockopodcast.com/?p=79446#comment-3498<![CDATA[So after listening to Episode 239 I had some comments. First thing was that (just as it was elaborated on for a good while on the show) I don't care how many times these words are related and/or rehashed. Reason being is the same as my mentality for working out, each move repeated over and over again like the might DeadLift keeps you healthy and strong and if you want it too, can make you stronger. And they all link together to allow for a more tightly knit unified body able to overcome the obstacles life throws at it. Every iteration is a Kata or Jiu-jitsu move that i can link and improve upon to a point of instinctuality where it becomes a second nature and a spirit of sorts living in my mind acting as an advisor to me when ever I have to make a decision. The more that it is nurtured and honed, the more naturally and effectively it can do that which is just SICK. To think that based on training and discipline in this manner of thinking can lead to such a clear ability to lead is simply radical and makes me want to SHAKE THE WORLD WITH AWESOMENESS. Okay so that was the first thing and the second was a comment on people who stop working out using marriage as an excuse.... that just sounds insane, its like, you'd think you'd workout even more just to maintain your sanity and sense of individuality after getting married. Personal opinion. Great show y'all!! Comments for Jocko Podcast (16)]]><![CDATA[

I put it on during my 45 minute commute to and from work and I am now on cast number 8. While I absolutely have a journey ahead of me if I intend to listen to all of your lectures, which I do but may not accomplish, I am already empowered and educated by your discussions and teachings of leadership principals.This comes at a time 1 year after I was promoted to my first ever leadership position. It is more of a substitutional and understudy type role. I never truly have the final say on important matters. I still have people seeking my attention, seeking my training, obeying my orders, and following my lead, but I am constantly undermined or out ranked by my leader who I work alongside. In essence I feel like I am driving a driver’s ed vehicle where I can go and do as I will but there is always someone in the passenger seat with their foot hovering on the break.While I have grown naturally through exposure and through very very little mentoring by my company, I still have a long way to go before I would consider myself an adept leader. I make mistakes daily and watch opportunities whizz by while I try to figure out what to do. I have many victories, but am frequently humbled as well.As you might be able to imagine based on how my company promotes, many other leaders in the company including my head leader are not so adept on core leadership principles either. There are a few astounding leaders in the higher up positions, but our company never offered leadership training to most people and only promoted those that were good at their work, not necessarily those who showed leadership aptitude. I was given an online course on leadership and had weekly mentor meetings with higher ups but it ended up being discontinued as soon as the pandemic hit. Those meetings helped a lot, but even still they never talked much about leadership principles I could chew on and while my team leader was supposed to be involved, they were so undertrained and unconditioned they could not think of one thing to teach me or discuss in a 1 on 1 meeting.This being said, I absolutely want something better for my team. I want to set examples that other leaders might be able to pick up on. However, in my position and rank, I feel like if I impose I will be disrespected by my leadership peers. I have tried to exercise some of your principles and already I am being met with abrasion from my leader. As the way I act under the principals is not how things are normally handled by them.In secret, every day after I get into work and find a moment to write (most often during my breaks) I type out everything I remembered from the podcast that day. Anything that stood out to me or made me feel an “ah ha!” moment. I then will write a subtext of examples I have experienced in the past that relates to the entry, and then create an exercise for myself so that when the opportunity comes up again I can try one of your principles to see how it fairs. I review my notes daily and have grown to enjoy adding to them. It’s only been 2 weeks since I began and I have pages filled. It has become quite the hobby.So far, one of the hardest things is ownership. And judging by how often you talk about it and the fact that you have a book titled “extreme ownership” I know how important ownership is. In fact, I have found ownership and the emotional response to it is probably the core essence of human nature. Anything from declaring war to being upset with traffic. It’s all ownership at its core. When things we own are threatened or praised it squeezes out an emotional response. “Someone is in my way? How dare they!”. “Someone wasted my time!? Inconceivable!”. “Someone offends my way of life? Kill them all!”And speaking on ownership, at work in my environment it’s so hard to own a mistake of a subordinate even if the fault is entirely on them. It is so hard to take ownership of a mistake from a subordinate that resulted from an order from me while my leader pins the fault on the subordinate, even when ethically I KNOW the right thing to do is own it. It’s hardest when my peers have their sights on the worker. It is so difficult to hold ownership when my leader wants to be out for blood and complains of under training and does not want to look bad to higher ups. While it’s tough and causes agony to me to throw myself in the fire, I still take the responsibility and ownership when I can. When I do this it feels like I am sticking up for those that are under me, making myself look bad to my leader, cleaning up after the leader and leading for them, and causing the leader frustration because I am stepping in. Is this how it should feel? Am I doing it right?This letter is in part a thank you for your contribution to the leadership world and giving guidance to those who seek it. And you do this podcast without asking for money so it doesn’t feel like a pay-to-win deal and some scam that claims to make you a better leader in 30 days and 20 bullet points. You just bring what you know to the microphone and let people listen to you like a guy telling stories around a campfire. Not only do you bring your own stories but you bring passages from authors throughout time and space to reinforce. Thank you for allowing us to listen and learn.But I also wanted to ask.When I feel the pressure from my peers to act like them. When they think they know how to handle situations because that’s how they always handled them and never stopped to think how it affects the team. When they have the best interest of their ego and how they look to higher ups instead of how they make the team feel. When they lack team building skills or interest in the team. When I work alongside these people as leaders and they have a little more power than I do. How do I act and deal with that? How do I introduce basic leadership principles to someone that is supposed to be training me? How do I practice these leadership principles when I am technically not the leader of my team but still expected to be one by job description?If you have previously touched this topic in one or a few of your podcasts please direct me to them!Thanks again Jocko, you’re truly a gift with your lectures and demeanor.]]><![CDATA[

From an English major that lead the battalion (LTC Todd Jacobus) to the Six Sigma MI officer (CPT Eric Rant) that brought the fight to traceable data points to limit and reduce wasted time. I distinctly recall General Gronski mentioning the importance of having executable intelligence in order to fight the insurgents. Both of these Iowa National Guard leaders went on to amazing careers.

Very topical! COIN is incredibly applicable to the issues we see in our own companies, families… or country.

If you lose the sense of legitimacy, tactical victories become meaningless. And then reinforcing your position, avoiding any accountability (OWNERSHIP!), and justifying those actions that threaten our legitimacy in using force FURTHER DELEGITIMIZE YOU!

Once again, fundamentals of leadership transfer over into another arena. JJDIDTIEBUCKLE and extreme ownership, Gents!

The feedback we do get mostly comes from third parties, second hand. We never hear his actual own personal assessments.In contrast, I consider feedback to be an important part of my own leadership style.

Jocko,

I work for a leader that is highly respected in our organization, and has actually won a very major leadership award.

We only get both the positive and the constructive feedback at the end of the performance evaluation cycle, when it’s too late to change behavior or to focus on improving. The feedback we do get mostly comes from third parties, second hand. We never hear his actual own personal assessments.

In contrast, I consider feedback to be an important part of my own leadership style.

Imagine a boxing ring, cage etc. The green zone is outside of it (not an option) and the attacker is a world class boxer. He wants you 3 ft. (6,000ft) away. Now, you could start the fight by jump 10ft away, but what does that do? Now all he (attacker) has to do is keep an eye on you and wait for a mistake. Plus, to do anything you now have to cross back to his attack zone. However, when the bell rings, if you shoot (close the distance) and take down (dive) now his advantage is gone and he can't strike you effectively. Hope this helps]]><![CDATA[

You podcast brought back some memories of that I thought you might like. I'm hoping this is the right podcast since I drive a truck and listened to 3 of them the other day. I carried a duct tape covered note book in my pocket every day. Got some of the kids doing it too. Bosses directions, notes on the kids, to do lists. It made a world of difference. I was taught, and I taught other counselors, "go hard on the rules and consistency at the beginning. If things go well you can always ease up later. If you go easy first you will have to fight and claw to get that lost ground back." Be firm, be fair, be consistent. I introduced a process into the group where we rotated one student as "leader of the day." Picked up the idea on my Wilderness Education Assoc Outdoor Leader Course. The LOD was responsible for calling and controlling the line, calling group meeting to order, generally trying to keep the group on track, and the counselors would delegate tasks to them through the day. It's amazing what troubled kids can do when you raise the bar and let them know you think they can be better. I've not heard you talk about this, but it fits in to what you do. We focused a lot on preventing what we called "power struggles." Inter personal conflict. I mean, the kids came in with authority issues. If you don't recognize one starting and escalating they generally end in some form of violence. But when you start to see them you can step in and deflect the situation usually by giving the student an out to save face and still follow directions. Young counselors tend to get in a lot of these and they usually ended in physical restraints. The last year I worked there I only did 2 physical restraint for the year and neither were power struggles. One to stop a fight and one to keep a kid from assaulting a Sheriff. My ability to facilitate change went up as I managed to not get into these power struggles. Love the podcast! I ordered 3 books for me and my 2 girls.]]><![CDATA[

Hello Jocko and team!

First of all, thank you for doing what you do. It’s nice to have the message you guys share every week, consistently coming down the line.

Question: Where can I purchase copies of Marine Corps Publications? Specifically the newest “Learning” manual?

I have found various copies in thrift stores, but am not aware if there are copies readily available for purchase… or maybe my google skills just suck.

Thank you for keeping the warrior spirit alive and relevant.

LAYERS!

Howdy sirs,

I was listening to the podcast on the way in to work this morning and the way you and Dave –Good Deal Dave –related holding on to your ideas and keeping an idea to yourself as being a “mortal sin,” is a point I believe you struck right on the head. When Echo brought in his idea of pieces and layers, I had to laugh aloud because I was thinking of something almost exactly along the same lines.

I have had the great fortune to be brought up in a manufacturing family. Jobs working in different kinds of shops have given me some perspectives and ideas that you all solidified in my mind during this podcast.

While working as an aviation mechanic’s apprentice I had the opportunity to work in a shop with some true characters. They weren’t always on “the path” but their heart and their ability to do their jobs, as well their willingness to share their knowledge, is something for which I will be forever grateful.

One of the things I learned from the old-timers was “the drawer,” and “the cart.” The idea was that if you happened upon a part that was not being used or was being replaced by a “new-and-improved gizmo.” You could ask for permission and save it to work on other things as long as its condition was solid or “airworthy.” Without a doubt, there were fixes that were found that would have been an entire and costly replacement due to manufacturers going out of business years ago. Time was saved and ideas came to life with the right part, found by the right person, at the right time.

Echo, I see your idea of the parts –even unpolished and unfinished –as being just like that. Open to anyone in the shop, they were there to save the day when the inter-webs came up dry. However, I was surprised, nay, SHOCKED that you didn’t go with the Apollo 13 movie reference. When NASA engineers and crew on Earth had to fabricate CO2 scrubbers from what was onboard the spacecraft. A movie in which a certain Gary Sinise played not a small role. Layers.

The dichotomy here, however, is that a shop will quickly turn into a junkyard and non-approved parts can make it where they don’t belong if things are allowed to go too far. Dichotomies are always important. Especially when dealing with layers.

This was a great episode. I have ordered the book. I look forward to having another useful tool in the box. Thank you.

First thanks for an amazing podcast. I've been going through some challenges in my life and can't tell you how much your podcast is helping. Great advice and great things I can dig into and research to make me a more effective human. Everything I'm about to say, Jordan Peterson perfectly summarized by saying , "stand up straight with your shoulders back."In this episode one of the last questions is from a person dealing with insecurities. The thing, well A thing that caught my ear was the bit about people not going around him. I recognize that pattern because I lived it for waaay longer than I would like to admit. I have to say this, you're right on the money about it being a function of confidence. What I found was I was misdirecting people with my eyes and my body language. I was giving people nonverbal cues about where I was going, what my destination was... And those cues were off. I just did not understand that I was doing something outside of expected behavior. Here is what I found, people understand naturally that your eyes are directing where you're going. There's a pretty good chance this guy's eyes are focused on something very close as he is walking down the hallway. People take that to mean that he is going to adjust his direction in the very near future. They have no idea where he is actually headed which causes confusion.So do this, when you're walking somewhere pick a point off in the distance and look straight at it with your head up and your shoulders back Head for it like you really want to get there and people will get the idea. You will find that people will naturally go the direction they're going and you go the direction you were going without all of this dancing around one another. It took me a little while to figure it out and still a little bit longer on how to do it naturally without barreling through people. Anyone have some thoughts, I'd love to hear it.]]><![CDATA[

In this episode one of the last questions is from a person dealing with insecurities. The thing, well A thing that caught my ear was the bit about people not going around him.

I've been struggling with this same problem myself and didn't have the understanding of how to deal with it. At some points earlier in life I chose the wrong people to be around (or as a kid you're stuck with who is at school), with whom I couldn't make good connections, and was getting a bad result based on that. Because of that I didn't get experience at doing the right things thus later ruining the potentially good opportunities. Due to my wife's work and family situations we've moved around a lot, and I've changed jobs to accommodate that 6 times in the last 5 years and four more times on top of that in the prior 5. Building relationships correctly takes time, opportunity, and practice that sometimes you just don't have. The consequences of mistakes then lead to isolation that compounded and prolonged the problem. I found myself stuck in a binge pattern where I try to catch up for lost time and opportunity, trying to quickly fill in what has long been missing, and that pushed people away. This has apparently been impacting work and other opportunities in life. Currently my work is closed and I'm having more time to think about things and wanting to do better. I definitely want to be better at things than I have been, or at least as it appears by the results that I have gotten thus far. It is very, very hard repeatedly starting at the beginning and the bottom again and again. But at least now I have some information to go on that I previously didn't have, so thank you.]]><![CDATA[

Extreme ownership being applied for a constant 24hours and never leaving the house is wearing the patience thin.

I cannot stress enough that i don't mean to give ppl excuses for not thinkng before they hit send, or anything like that. But you have to admit that that is not the only risk - google nokia simmons, for instance. It is not safe to ignore this. Not when everyone is putting everything online.

Hi Jocko, Echo, and Darryl,

I was just introduced to Darryl Cooper while listening to this episode of the Podcast and I am fascinated by his story – particularly his nomadic and unpredictable childhood. I am a middle school teacher who has found her calling and passion in this line of work, but who also struggles to support, and frankly understand, many students who come from unstable homes. I was very fortunate in my upbringing and am aware of the biases I carry as a result of that. And while I am always striving to learn and better myself, so that I may be better for the students I serve, I routinely feel as though I fall short – whether it be taking behaviors personally, becoming overwhelmed by theenormity of daily responsibilities, allowing my emotions to get the best of me, or even just failing at creating a foundational relationship.

Listening to Darryl’s story provided many precious insights and perspectives into why students who suffer from childhood trauma behave the way they do, and I am going to recommend that all of my colleagues listen to this episode. I was left with a question though, and perhaps the nature of human emotionand behavior will not lend itself to a single answer, but I’m wondering if Darryl could explain what would have had, or did have, the most positive impact on his experience in school when it came to his teachers? What did he get from them, or felt like he needed from them, to “succeed”? What made him, or would have made him feel, more welcome? What made, or would have made, the most impact?

I know there’s much to unpack here and obviously no two kids are the same – but behaviorsrelated to trauma have some common threads and it is something us teachers face everyday in our classrooms; many feeling ill-equipped and undersupported to bearing such a burden. Any and all information is valuable information and I would consider it an honor to hear any thoughts on this topic.

Respectfully,
Danielle Kuhl

I had the honor of meeting you and your team at the Echelon Front Muster in Chicago this past May, which was one of the best events I have ever attended in my life! Your podcasts, videos, and books have been a great inspiration and help to myself, my family, my friends, my clients and my team! I even had your phrase “Discipline Equals Freedom” tattooed on my arm as my first tattoo and I do my best to live up to that standard every day!I know you are extremely busy and do not really expect you to read or reply to this correspondence, however, I would be so extremely honored and it would really help me if you did! Although, even if you do not, it will help me to just write these thoughts down for my own benefit to try and work through a very difficult situation that I am struggling with.I was listening to your most recent podcast with Congressman Dan Crenshaw and his concept of “Having no plan B” and “Never Quitting” really struck me and prompted me to write this letter.I am a 54 year old husband and father of 3 daughters. I have been married to the same woman, who I met in high school for over 30 years. Six years ago I sold my financial services business that I founded and built over 15 years to start a CrossFit fitness and nutrition business with my oldest daughter Regan. Our CrossFit business has grown to over 100 members, even though we are located in the very small rural town of Chelsea, Michigan, and it has been a greatly positive and fulfilling experience for me, our team and the 100s of people we help every day. Although I was a financial advisor for over 20 years and expected to make that my lifelong career, I never really felt that it was my true calling. I realized that I was only doing it to please others and for the money. I have always loved fitness, working out and pushing my body and mind as far as I can through hard physical challenges. When I started coaching others to live healthier, happier and more fulfilling lives by teaching them how to move better, eat better and break through their limits I knew that I had found my true calling! Even after six years of many long hours and weeks of growing our CrossFit and nutrition business I am still as passionate about it as I was on our first day in business! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY 100% WHAT I WAS MEANT TO DO IN THIS LIFETIME!Due to the corona virus we were forced to close our CrossFit business physical location about a month ago. Luckily, we had built the infrastructure to quickly pivot to doing online coaching for all our members and therefore we continue to provide them with significant value even though they are unable to physically come to our facility for their workouts. To date we have only lost 8 clients, however, I am sure that the longer this drags out we are bound to lose more due to members losing their jobs and when we are allowed to reopen I know it will be even more challenging due to the weak economy. I continue to fight every day to keep our current members engaged, informed, motivated and making healthy decisions in spite of the current situation and will continue to do so as long as we have members!However, I have also invested all my savings that the IRS didn’t take as a result of an audit in our fitness business and am having a very difficult time providing my family financially and continuing to pay the businesses bills. I take full ownership and responsibility for my situation and realize that I should have saved more during the good times to prepare for times like this. I do not blame the government or the corona virus for my situation and I will not take any of the welfare or loans being offered by the government to small businesses due to the virus. This brings me to the point of this correspondence and the concept of “Having No Plan B” as discussed with Congressman Crenshaw on your podcast. I am VERY conflicted regarding the correct course of action I should take to solve my financial challenges. My most important value and one that I have hopefully successfully taught to my three daughters and our CrossFit members is to NEVER QUIT and to not have a “Plan B”. I have always been an “all in” kind of a guy and am most fulfilled and at peace when I can devote all my efforts towards making one thing that I am passionate about successful. While, as I mentioned, I continue to service our CrossFit business members to the best of my ability, I have also started applying for regular jobs as a better means to support my family financially. Aside from anything bad happening to my family, the thought of having to go back to a “regular” job that I am not passionate about is my absolute worst nightmare! However, I am also willing to do whatever it takes to provide for my family! We have built a good team in our CrossFit business, however, they are all part time and I am concerned that the business will suffer significantly if I have to spend 10 hours per day working another job. It also kills me to think that when our CrossFit business is allowed to reopen I will be letting all of the members down who stuck with us through this if I am not 100% present when they come back because I am working some other job. It also kills me that I am letting my family down by not being able to provide properly financially for them and that I should only be focused on that! Therefore, I am VERY curious as to what you would advise relating to your and Congressman Crenshaw’s concept of “Not Having a Plan B” regarding my situation. To me this would mean not quitting and getting another job and sticking with my CrossFit business until it can provide for my family financially or I have to close it down. Or it would mean closing my CrossFit business down and just getting a regular job.Jocko, THANK YOU for your time and consideration in this matter and for everything you do and have done for me! I wish you, your family and team great health and success! Sincerely,Cyril S. White]]><![CDATA[

Aside from anything bad happening to my family, the thought of having to go back to a “regular” job that I am not passionate about is my absolute worst nightmare! However, I am also willing to do whatever it takes to provide for my family! We have built a good team in our CrossFit business, however, they are all part time and I am concerned that the business will suffer significantly if I have to spend 10 hours per day working another job. It also kills me to think that when our CrossFit business is allowed to reopen I will be letting all of the members down who stuck with us through this if I am not 100% present when they come back because I am working some other job. It also kills me that I am letting my family down by not being able to provide properly financially for them and that I should only be focused on that!

Therefore, I am VERY curious as to what you would advise relating to your and Congressman Crenshaw’s concept of “Not Having a Plan B” regarding my situation. To me this would mean not quitting and getting another job and sticking with my CrossFit business until it can provide for my family financially or I have to close it down. Or it would mean closing my CrossFit business down and just getting a regular job.

Jocko, THANK YOU for your time and consideration in this matter and for everything you do and have done for me! I wish you, your family and team great health and success!

Sincerely,

Cyril S. White

My degree is in Psychology, and I spent all my time in the fleet, so other than Combat I didn't have a very robust background, or a Master's Degree.

That is why law technically outranks religion, not the other way around (like in the Middle east). That is not to say that people do not do evil acts. They certainly do. I happen to have a psyc background too and one of the main things which I find most frustrating about Jordan Peterson is that he takes a LOT of liberty with psychology and uses anecdotes a LOT. There are limits to psyc as there are to everything else, and it is important to understand what those limits are. And to keep the subject separate from religion. Bc that is a different discipline. Greece had laws, sparta had laws and they did not have Christian-Judeo roots. I understand that you guys are veterans and have rather freshly returned from a conflict which was largely (and in my opnion, falsely) described as religious. As such you might be more prone to using these kinds of arguments. But I assure you Genital mutiulation is still "evil" to me regardless of which religion and which gender it is being performed on. And that it predates religion in a lot of parts of the world. I would like to you consider reading history a little bit and tightening up the facts and THEN going forward with the arguments. You'll run into a lot fewer obstacles and be more successfull in both the long term and the short term. There will be men and women in the middle east who see the evil being done by perverting religion. But you will not be able to reach common ground with them if you just go: "Christian-Judeo is better". Most of that society is very much family-centered. They are not making peace bc they killed their relatives, so they cannot make peace. The religion is more of a pretext. The problem is it is an extreme society with rather extreme societal practices and that always leads to extreme population traits in a higher % than normal. If the normal is "I can chop of your hand", if you're my friend, you can bet everythign that when you're an enemy they'll do a lot worse than that. And only the cruelest will survive that particular hierarchy structure. It has nothing to do with religion. Read the text itself and you will see. Their religion is their version of "be better". It encourages peace! But religion did not evolve the same way in every population. It evolved differently in many places. Take China for example. Their "religion" led to god emperors who killed, maimed and mutilated millions before communism replaced it. Do you understand? They are reacting to what they are used to based on their history. So, yes, China is far more likely to see "religion" and "religious leaders" as the thing which they need to remove in order to restore peace and balance. It is a combination of perception and history. In Europe however, communism tried to "destroy" God, when God was not the problem. They didn't have god emperors. So morality survived that entire process and existed in the absence of any religious teaching. It still does. When communism fell people restored their old places of worship. There was no ill will towards religious leaders bc they were not the problem. So people rejected it. China NEEDS structure and community spirit. But it does not need God-like leadership. That is a dark place for them to return to. If you don't fix your understanding and your facts you will create more conflicts that you solve. Peterson is of Irish descent. Personally some of the best ppl I ever met were of Irish/scottish descent. I honestly don;t know why, but anyway, it works. (But they are also extraordinarity stubborn and short sighted at times And somehow the fact that I agree with them on most things just makes it even more irritating for the things we disagree on, especially if they dig in them heels.) which is probably why I find him so frustrating. Irish culture is just recently recovered from a conflict which was in part religious. Where people used religion to drive wedges in the community. Psychologically they are still recovering from it. So, he defends religion strongly bc it was under attack for no real reason. And bc he is witnessing some of those elements returning. And bc he is very stubborn and unwilling to see the other side once he thinks he's in a conflict and has a clear target. Which is why I usually avoid outright arguments with ppl when they're in that state of mind. I wait until they calmed down a bit and then try to reason with them. I was sorry to hear that he was having medical problems and i hope he gets throught them bc I still want to debate him some day. It on my bucket list. I never met him, but i wish i had some times. I really do. He doesn't see a way through the current predicament which is why he is so stressed out. There is always a way through. Its just hard to see it when you're in conflict, you gotta step back to get some perspective. And because they have some real bad eggs over there too, and that morality structure keeps them in check for the most part. Never disregard the context. I met exttremely few like that, but I have good instincts and i am typically good at avoiding bad eggs in general. if you try to take away the things which historically have been beneficial, people will fight you. But you don't need to. If the idea is to promote law and justice and decent behaviour - then you need to get the contexts straight. And you need to understand that people are just different some times. They don't have to be exactly like you for you to be able to understand them and I would argue.....don;t do it to be "nice", do it because it will enable you to get to your goals more effectively. The gut recognises evil. That is why it is in all the myths and the legends. That is why it is beyond religion. Knowing that might help a lot. If you attack the religion, you attack the positive aspect. But if you attack corruption and perverting of religion and denigration of common regular ppl - that is different. The real problem is not a book written 1000 years ago. They misinterpreted Jacko in 5 min online!It is human nature to misinterpret. And to go to extremes. That is why we have representative democracy. Bc in real life there;s always someone else to pull you back. There's always a neighbour somewhere to want to take you down a few pegs. That's why it works. God on the other hand...not so much. Evil does exist. Its our capascity to feel which allows us to feel good and evil. Its a gut reaction. It exists in chimps, and they are very sad*stic to their enemies at times, and very kind to their friends. Look at history, the more western society evolved and procured more resources the less cruel it became to its citizens. Look at sparta. And then watch that movie. and then tell me honestly: could the entire tragedy not been avoided if they simply found a way around listening to the diseased and corrupt oracles?? Nooo, instead they allowed the rot to persists and gave them pretty girls to abuse. Again, humanity's psychology has not changed that much. can you say something like: "chimps throw poop" in your next post so I know if this is actually getting through? internet still spotty]]><![CDATA[

Greece had laws, sparta had laws and they did not have Christian-Judeo roots.

I understand that you guys are veterans and have rather freshly returned from a conflict which was largely (and in my opnion, falsely) described as religious. As such you might be more prone to using these kinds of arguments. But I assure you Genital mutiulation is still “evil” to me regardless of which religion and which gender it is being performed on. And that it predates religion in a lot of parts of the world. I would like to you consider reading history a little bit and tightening up the facts and THEN going forward with the arguments. You’ll run into a lot fewer obstacles and be more successfull in both the long term and the short term.

There will be men and women in the middle east who see the evil being done by perverting religion. But you will not be able to reach common ground with them if you just go: “Christian-Judeo is better”. Most of that society is very much family-centered. They are not making peace bc they killed their relatives, so they cannot make peace. The religion is more of a pretext. The problem is it is an extreme society with rather extreme societal practices and that always leads to extreme population traits in a higher % than normal. If the normal is “I can chop of your hand”, if you’re my friend, you can bet everythign that when you’re an enemy they’ll do a lot worse than that. And only the cruelest will survive that particular hierarchy structure. It has nothing to do with religion. Read the text itself and you will see. Their religion is their version of “be better”. It encourages peace!
But religion did not evolve the same way in every population. It evolved differently in many places. Take China for example. Their “religion” led to god emperors who killed, maimed and mutilated millions before communism replaced it.

Do you understand? They are reacting to what they are used to based on their history. So, yes, China is far more likely to see “religion” and “religious leaders” as the thing which they need to remove in order to restore peace and balance. It is a combination of perception and history.

In Europe however, communism tried to “destroy” God, when God was not the problem. They didn’t have god emperors. So morality survived that entire process and existed in the absence of any religious teaching. It still does. When communism fell people restored their old places of worship. There was no ill will towards religious leaders bc they were not the problem. So people rejected it.
China NEEDS structure and community spirit. But it does not need God-like leadership. That is a dark place for them to return to. If you don’t fix your understanding and your facts you will create more conflicts that you solve.

Peterson is of Irish descent. Personally some of the best ppl I ever met were of Irish/scottish descent. I honestly don;t know why, but anyway, it works. (But they are also extraordinarity stubborn and short sighted at times And somehow the fact that I agree with them on most things just makes it even more irritating for the things we disagree on, especially if they dig in them heels.) which is probably why I find him so frustrating. Irish culture is just recently recovered from a conflict which was in part religious. Where people used religion to drive wedges in the community. Psychologically they are still recovering from it. So, he defends religion strongly bc it was under attack for no real reason. And bc he is witnessing some of those elements returning. And bc he is very stubborn and unwilling to see the other side once he thinks he’s in a conflict and has a clear target. Which is why I usually avoid outright arguments with ppl when they’re in that state of mind. I wait until they calmed down a bit and then try to reason with them. I was sorry to hear that he was having medical problems and i hope he gets throught them bc I still want to debate him some day. It on my bucket list. I never met him, but i wish i had some times. I really do. He doesn’t see a way through the current predicament which is why he is so stressed out. There is always a way through. Its just hard to see it when you’re in conflict, you gotta step back to get some perspective. And because they have some real bad eggs over there too, and that morality structure keeps them in check for the most part. Never disregard the context. I met exttremely few like that, but I have good instincts and i am typically good at avoiding bad eggs in general.

if you try to take away the things which historically have been beneficial, people will fight you. But you don’t need to. If the idea is to promote law and justice and decent behaviour – then you need to get the contexts straight. And you need to understand that people are just different some times. They don’t have to be exactly like you for you to be able to understand them and I would argue…..don;t do it to be “nice”, do it because it will enable you to get to your goals more effectively. The gut recognises evil. That is why it is in all the myths and the legends. That is why it is beyond religion. Knowing that might help a lot. If you attack the religion, you attack the positive aspect. But if you attack corruption and perverting of religion and denigration of common regular ppl – that is different. The real problem is not a book written 1000 years ago. They misinterpreted Jacko in 5 min online!
It is human nature to misinterpret. And to go to extremes. That is why we have representative democracy. Bc in real life there;s always someone else to pull you back. There’s always a neighbour somewhere to want to take you down a few pegs. That’s why it works. God on the other hand…not so much.

Evil does exist. Its our capascity to feel which allows us to feel good and evil. Its a gut reaction. It exists in chimps, and they are very sad*stic to their enemies at times, and very kind to their friends. Look at history, the more western society evolved and procured more resources the less cruel it became to its citizens. Look at sparta. And then watch that movie. and then tell me honestly: could the entire tragedy not been avoided if they simply found a way around listening to the diseased and corrupt oracles?? Nooo, instead they allowed the rot to persists and gave them pretty girls to abuse. Again, humanity’s psychology has not changed that much.

can you say something like: “chimps throw poop” in your next post so I know if this is actually getting through? internet still spotty

Comment- need to know

Terrible situation, but what a brave young lady, she sounds very situationally aware and intelligent, to say the least. Also, a great podcast.

Actually happens to be super relevant. Currently, I am doing a course research paper on war gaming from a military and business perspective. Needless to say, Rose mentioned a few things in the book I looked over. It seems contradictory from the record books. Definitely not saying Ms.Schindler is wrong by any means.

To persuade the French to leave there was the Great Coalition introducing reforms through the Dawes Plan, a new currency, longer reparation payments, and loans from the U.S. that temporarily settled hyperinflation.

Could of been all good.

However, during WWI after the US entered the war (sinking of commerce ships after the German Admiralty Declaration) there was a significant decrease in the labor workforce available to upkeep the agriculture, add in high global temperature, created drought conditions, failure to apply dryland farming techniques, wind erosion creating the dust bowl famine.

Under these conditions would lead to Rose’s childhood of the Hungarian soldiers seizing the family’s store. ( to note I didn’t realize Hungarian soldiers did this before Germans)

Anyways, I will have to get the book as I could be mixing the time of events up. I am trying to be accurate as possible but you know social cleansing, ideological control, accidents, weathering, limited access of records, etc.

You have a fine podcast and I'm an avid listener and practitioner. I'm writing you today to share a revelation that I've had in regards to my son. A revelation that has come while listening to episode 215. I'm sharing in part for thanks to you both, and in part that it might be beneficial to anyone else reading these comments. I love being a Dad. My boy's are 7 and 5 and I have purposefully and successfully tried to have a close relationship with both of my sons throughout their young lives. Wrestling, playing baseball, doing puzzles, swimming, hiking etc. It is not an accident that I'm a hero to them. I meant to be from the beginning, because I know full well that the days are coming when they will need to be let go to fail and get up on there own and make there own way, ultimately realizing that Daddy is mortal. My oldest will soon be of an age where he will want to come see what I do for work. I have dreaded this for years. I'm a software engineer. I like what I do and I've had some success at it. But little boys don't want to sit and see Daddy typing away on a computer (even if he does take hourly breaks for pushups). And with due respect to you Jocko, your not making things any easier when you talk about taking your son to a NAVY SEAL training site, that's a hell of bar to reach for...lol. It occurred to me however that it doesn't really matter what it is you do,... with a caveat. It has to be something that your excited about. That is what you kid should see you doing. You could be a street sweeper or a CEO. As long as you are imparting the message that "Look Son, I'm doing this and I'm Excited about it". A message that, "I'm excited enough about this to work hard at it. When Daddy comes home and I'm tired from a long day, I'm happy because I like what I'm doing and it's worth working hard for". That seems to me to be the lesson worth teaching.Anyway, I appreciate the conversation, thanks and have good one.]]><![CDATA[

I can definitely be defensive and rude back, but I've never called him names like he does to me. I told him I didn't want to be his friend anymore, so he tried really hard to apologize and make it up to me. I gave him another chance, but at the first disagreement he turned right back to bullying me. He still asks me to hang out with him.

I witnessed 3 of them, at the end of the evening, have a different look in their eyes. It was like the light had been restored.

An amazing story of a tremendous Marine, and beyond moving to hear it from his fellow Marines that knew him so well. First I want to say that I have been going back and listening to your podcasts from the beginning to try to "catch up" and occasionally listening to a newer episode if something catches my attention. It has been fascinating to listen to your skills as an interviewer expand and blossom over the years, and this episode in my opinion, is the greatest example of that at it's peak. You did an outstanding job of husbanding this episode along, letting the Marines do most of the talking, engaging them with pertinent questions when appropriate while also not being afraid to let silence settle in occasionally. Your questions and handling of what was obviously a tough process for your guests as well as yourself was extraordinarily well done, keeping things light when needed but also not afraid or unwilling to address the heavy emotional moments of the story you all were telling. Just an outstanding job on your part and one to be particularly proud of. Second, if possible please pass on to your guests my deeply humble appreciation for their service and sacrifice for our country. Their stories and love for each other were and are deeply moving. I had the privilege of working as a civilian in Iraq from 2006-2008 (I was too old and too fat for the military by 9/11 unfortunately, so that was as close as I could get) and serving the military to the best of my ability. I was and still am amazed by the great men and women that volunteer to serve and fight for us. I worked on coalition (primarily Polish) and US bases there, and while the other countries were terrific, the US military was a cut above. These men on this podcast remind me of those feelings of pride, satisfaction and gratefulness I got from that experience, and working to try to make the lives of our deployed military as good as we could. Again, great episode, and thank you for providing a venue for stories like this to get told in depth.]]><![CDATA[

These men on this podcast remind me of those feelings of pride, satisfaction and gratefulness I got from that experience, and working to try to make the lives of our deployed military as good as we could.

Again, great episode, and thank you for providing a venue for stories like this to get told in depth.

Jocko,

This was a hard episode to listen to hear but amazing as well. I just lost my dad last month. He was not only my father but my best friend and my go-to for everything. It was also an unexpected death. I listen to podcasts at the gym and while I work because, as a Police Officer, I spend most of my day in a car. I had finished at the gym and was on my way out to the city I serve, and Ryan talked about during the viewing, she didn’t want to walk away from his casket and her emotions and thoughts with this. I had not been able to put words to this feeling the night my dad passed and what she talked about during your conversation hit it right on the head. I was the last one to leave the hospital that night. We all had an hour or more drive home, it was late and none of us had gotten any sleep for the last three or more days. At forty years old, I was one of the younger ones that can still see in the dark to drive so I was charged with driving my aunt home while my wife drove my mom home. I had the hospital staff waiting on me to leave so they could do their jobs. He had passed over an hour before. I needed to go but I couldn’t. Like Ryan said, I would never see his face again. I would never be able to hold his hand again. I wanted to have this memory burned into my brain because I didn’t want to forget his face, what his hand felt like in mine, my pain, my guilt. I had a big part in making the decision on taking him off of life support. The doc said he had less than a one percent chance of any quality of life if everything they tried actually worked. In my mind, one percent is something. My family don’t think like me, but it was my decision that was holding up letting dad go in peace. I finally caved but I still struggle with it because I feel like I gave up on him. I feel like, if roles were reversed, he would have fought his ass off for me.I hadn’t had a chance yet to truly let go and start the grieving. I had to be the backbone during these days because my mom, sister and rest of the family were a wreck. Understandable so. Mom and dad were married 47 years. He spoiled all of us. She didn’t know anything else but her world with him. I had to turn on the cop mode and not let feelings creep in for the family and make sure we were making the right decisions for dad since he couldn’t.As I sat there in that dark room looking with a giant window where I knew big and beautiful Mt. Hood was out there in the dark, it all came gushing out all at once. I was crying and begging for him to come back, talk to me just one more time, tell me what to do. I had no idea how to deal with what was happening because my whole world had just been picked up, turned over and dumped out. I have been in some sad, terrifying, brutal situations in my life, but none had ever hit me like this. I have lost several friends and family members and I have been able to just chalk it up to this is just what happens to us all. Not this time. I didn’t know what to do with all of this. I didn’t know and still don’t know what I’m doing with this new life without my dad. I am not only running my own home with my wife and toddler son, but I am also helping mom with taking over on the things my dad would do on their small farm, getting ready for winter. Oh yeah, I have to go to work somewhere in there too. I have an amazing boss who has been super flexible and letting me do what I need to do but then that brings guilt into play because I have a city to take care of as well. Not to mention I have a trainee which has been a nice distraction. Anyway, I could go on and on about feelings with what’s happened since we lost dad but, really, I just wanted to say thank you for this episode. There were many things that helped me and will continue to help me. The episode title says it all: “Life is Precious, Short, and Unpredictable. Don’t Wait to Become the Person You Want to Become.” The working out part is a given. I have always needed that time. If I took a picture of my watch every morning when I woke up it would say 0400 as I grab that pre-workout and my work stuff and head to the gym. Writing has also been a big one for me. I write to dad every day. You guys are a great inspiration to me, and I appreciate the podcast. I haven’t jumped on the jiu-jitsu train yet but plan to. There aren’t any places to train locally. Hoping it can happen someday. I will also be ordering “The Knock on the Door” as soon as I can. Hoping to get that first edition. Sorry for the rambling. hank you for what you do]]><![CDATA[

My name is Joel Maart and I live in Lindstrom, MN. I am about to finish this episode of your podcast. I've listened to several of your podcasts and absolutely enjoy them. I've never served in the military, but I've been reading about WW2 and the military since 5th grade. They are two of my favorite subjects. I had a great uncle killed in WW2 and is buried in France. So, while I've never served, I have The Highest Respect for those who do - especially for the kind of Marines presented in this episode. This episode was extremely, extremely powerful! Wow! I appreciate how you took the listener through the entire process, including sharing the private moments of when Jason was taken off of life support. I was - and still am - in tears hearing that powerful story.One other item from this podcast that connected with me was by the Marine who was injured in both arms and ended up having what sounded like 20 surgeries. I don't remember his name. He said after the explosion when he was waiting to be evacuated that he wasn't thinking of himself. He said he was thinking of Jason and his fellow Marines. I immediately thought of Proverbs 17:17, "A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity." Also, John 15:13, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."I have two sons, 12 & 9. The youngest especially likes the military and asks me all the time about the different branches, battles, equipment, etc. I shared with my boys the story of Jason, the Marines who said he didn't care about himself, and these two verses. First of all, I want to teach my boys Biblical truth as it teaches us how to live and think. In this case, these verses teach us about sacrificial loving and caring for others.But secondly, I wanted to show my boys a real-life example of these verses lived out and what I feel makes the US military so special. For my 9-year old who keeps talking about going into the military one day, he needs to understand these principles now, both for life in general and in particular if he ever serves.Thank you for this episode! Thank you for Marines like Jason Dunham and the four others in this podcast. Thank you for their service, their patriotism, their honor and professionalism, their commitment to duty, and for their life example I can share with my two boys.

Jocko,

Hi! My name is Joel Maart and I live in Lindstrom, MN. I am about to finish this episode of your podcast. I’ve listened to several of your podcasts and absolutely enjoy them. I’ve never served in the military, but I’ve been reading about WW2 and the military since 5th grade. They are two of my favorite subjects. I had a great uncle killed in WW2 and is buried in France. So, while I’ve never served, I have The Highest Respect for those who do – especially for the kind of Marines presented in this episode.

This episode was extremely, extremely powerful! Wow! I appreciate how you took the listener through the entire process, including sharing the private moments of when Jason was taken off of life support. I was – and still am – in tears hearing that powerful story.

One other item from this podcast that connected with me was by the Marine who was injured in both arms and ended up having what sounded like 20 surgeries. I don’t remember his name. He said after the explosion when he was waiting to be evacuated that he wasn’t thinking of himself. He said he was thinking of Jason and his fellow Marines. I immediately thought of Proverbs 17:17, “A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.” Also, John 15:13, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

I have two sons, 12 & 9. The youngest especially likes the military and asks me all the time about the different branches, battles, equipment, etc. I shared with my boys the story of Jason, the Marines who said he didn’t care about himself, and these two verses.

First of all, I want to teach my boys Biblical truth as it teaches us how to live and think. In this case, these verses teach us about sacrificial loving and caring for others.

But secondly, I wanted to show my boys a real-life example of these verses lived out and what I feel makes the US military so special. For my 9-year old who keeps talking about going into the military one day, he needs to understand these principles now, both for life in general and in particular if he ever serves.

Thank you for this episode! Thank you for Marines like Jason Dunham and the four others in this podcast. Thank you for their service, their patriotism, their honor and professionalism, their commitment to duty, and for their life example I can share with my two boys. God bless Jason’s family and so many others who have suffered loss like this.

We loved them! I am also a 5th grade teacher on an Air Force Base and I just finished reading them to my class. I read the first one and I don't usually read series since there are so many good books for kids to experience. However, they begged me to read the other two and there is so much character development in your books that I couldn't deny them the privilege of hearing them. Now our librarian has a set in the school library and they are never on the shelf. Thank you for writing such fun, engaging stories that really change kid's behavior. I hear kids saying things like, "Get your ego in check." We are going to start listening to the podcast as a class now that we finished the books. We are also in the process of drafting individual Warrior Kid Codes. I am going to order a Warrior Kid t-shirt to award the student who really puts a lot of thought and effort into their code. I was wondering if there was anyway you could send my class a note or an email to encourage them to stay on the warrior path. Thank you for all you do to inspire kids to live a disciplined life!Tatiana ( Minot AFB, ND Only the best come north! )]]><![CDATA[

I saw this excellent editorial to the new mission command doctrine that there is almost an ironic shift to centralized or “detailed command” with the advent of new ISIR technology. Commanders have better awareness and are forcing decisions at higher levels where they should be at a lower level. I.E. division commanders authorizing artillery when it could or should be the ground commander: platoon leader on patrol.
Respectfully,
John

I was part of the “Surge”, in 07 - 08 in Iraq. When you read about a day being a day and a minute being a minute with Sean’s accounts of his first day in Afghanistan it brought me back to my daily struggle and memories of this little Iraqi girl. In March of 08, I saw this brilliant flash of blue light tear through the ground as if lightening was being thrown from the ground by Zeus himself, the ground trembled under my feet as if it was earthquake. A VBIED was used on civilians at a fuel station, in Balad, Iraq. Besides hundreds of casualties with the pressing smell of burnt bodies mixed with diesel fuel that permeated in my nostrils, among the screams of mothers holding there babies, there was a bus load of children that was also in the immediate blast radius. Every child that was pulled out of the bus was bloody with and lifeless. One little girl still had a pulse yet faint and thready. I held her limp body with the feeling of thick warm fluid drooling down my chest and arms, she would try to talk as I looked into her dark brown soon to be extinguished eyes. I placed on the ground to do a primary assessment on her, her body lied in a decerebrate posture as I checking for wounds, her hair was matted with coagulated blood as I gently pressed around her cranium my third finger fell into a gaping hole on the left side of her head. Immediately a tear came flowing from my eye knowing I am going to be the last person this little girl will ever see. I held her close telling her it is okay and watched the gleam in her eyes disappear as her soul exited this earth, mine was scared for ever. I think about this little girl everyday. I did not know her from any other child that died that day. But, some where in those last moments of life our souls seemed to bond. This has become the most life changing moment in my life. In that small amount of time a second seemed to drag out to the point of being a rift in time and space tearing the fabric of my being. Shortly after that after that day I succumbed to a black heavy cloud that plumbed over me from the burn pits and was medevaced to Landstuhl, Germany and eventually medically discharged from the Army. To understand the hate and evil that would drive a person to commit such a heinous act is something my family can not and will not understand. Jocko listing to your pod casts and the people you bring on has helped me remember to suck it up and carry on. I refuse to let down the soldiers that gave it all. Being a Captain I should have never lost sight of that. With that I thank you. Now concerning Jiu Jitsu. I really like the way you say that it helps you learn how to out maneuver the aggressor. But here in Northern Maine there is no Jiu Jitsu. However, there is Ninjutsu and I have been at it for about 6.5 years. What are your thoughts on Ninjutsu? Again thank you.]]><![CDATA[

You may be aware of this idea below, but I believe it to be wrong to only consume and not give back, as much as I am able to what you do. My role at the bank I work at is to provide leadership and coaching training for the retail leaders of our banking organization, approximately 400 individuals who have teams ranging from 3 to 20 people. You’ve mentioned in a few of your podcasts the idea of a leader leading a subordinate to self-discover difficult feedback, as opposed to the leader just unloading that feedback from both barrels. We have recently instituted a process in our organization to have an effective ‘coaching conversation’, and this idea is at the heart of it. The main idea is for the coach to identify where a process broke and ask the teammate who failed “tell me about...” and insert the step of the process not executed. In sales, for example, when we acquire a new bank who used less effective sales tactics, the new teammates will want to do things the old way. They could be ‘order takers’ and just do whatever the customer asked, or push product without identifying the customer’s need. So in our sales process, the step that broke was ‘identifying the customers need’. Therefore, to lead the teammate to self discovery (instead of telling) the coach would say, “tell me about that customer’s need”. Usually the response is ‘I guess we didn’t get into that’. Then the coach asks ‘why is that?’, which leads to your clear coaching action.The beauty for the coach is you know exactly what needs to be coach: the will or the skill. If the answer is ‘I don’t believe in doing that’, it’s a will issue and requires an accountability conversation. If it’s ‘I don’t know how to do that’, it’s a skill-building role play.

The best part is that the teammate has NO IDEA it’s happening, it’s a conversation. The leader assumes that the teammate did it correctly (even if they know they didn’t). It builds trust.

When I got home I could hear my daughter laughing and playing in the back yard. I thought my day had sucked. Then I heard Frenchman and Tilt's stories. It made me almost cry to know that they might not have ever heard their own daughters laughter had they not made it back. Or that Tilt's mom would never see her little boy again.

Thank you very much for bringing these two awsome men on your podcast. What an amazing story of courage and valor. I woke up at 0200 today to commute to Long Beach from the High Desert and got got home from work at 1730. When I got home I could hear my daughter laughing and playing in the back yard. I thought my day had sucked. Then I heard Frenchman and Tilt’s stories. It made me almost cry to know that they might not have ever heard their own daughters laughter had they not made it back. Or that Tilt’s mom would never see her little boy again. Please extend my biggest thanks to those two gentlemen from a proud Navy family who’s son stands the watch. Respectfully, Pete Macen.

The dichotomy of groupthink that had to take place to allow people to think that this was such a good idea coming from the top is just amazing. McNamara was an ivy league idiot imho. Most importantly how would Jocko have lead up the chain of command to stop something this insane? Did Colonel Hackworth run across any of these men?]]><![CDATA[

I had a moment to confront this monster, and failed.”This was not your failure. This was the result of someone who, with good intentions, felt the only thing you should do is literally “face your fear”. It’s advice from someone who’s heard of the term “exposure therapy” without knowing what it actually means. This is not your failure. You have not failed sir. “Recently the past has come back with a vengeance. I can’t get through a short time, maybe an hour or two, without thinking about the past, and my failure. The only time I have peace is when I absolutely destroy myself working out. I consider it punishing myself and feel better when I do it. How can I stop this or at least manage it better?”You’re doing the right things. But there’s always more to consider. Please consider seeking therapy or speaking with a professional about the things you contend with. An injury is an injury. If you’re injured, you should treat that injury. This counts. Try speaking to multiple professionals to find someone who you feel you can get along with. It can be a bit of work, but to relieve this pain to someone who is professionally unbiased, can be quite helpful in itself. There are some who are trained specifically to help law enforcement individuals and also specialize with the things you are contending with. To add to Jocko and Echo’s points, this is not a failure, and this was never your failure. Those things should have never happened to you, but what you’re doing now – getting up every day, helping people out, and stopping bad people…these are signs of strength and perseverance.

Dear Mr. Willink,

My name is Charlie and I am a six year old warrior kid from Dana Point, California. Two of my favorite activities to do are surfing and baseball. I have a couple questions for each sport.

What should I do, or how can I practice holding my breath longer for when I go under waves? How can I feel more comfortable when bigger waves come in? I surf with my dad all the time and he keeps me safe but these are two things I would like to work on.

I am in the shetland league for baseball and I was wondering what I can do to be a leader on my team? I also get frustrated when I miss a few pitches when I am at bat and if I miss a catch when the ball is thrown to me. What can I do to help not get frustrated?

My understanding of it is as follows: that in any situation, I have played a role in whatever outcome has transpired. My job (at work, home, or anywhere) is to acknowledge that role, take responsibility for my participation and influence over the outcome, and to continue to work at self-improvement so that future outcomes can be more positively influence by my inputs. Does that sound accurate to you?

Thanks so much, I hope this finds you well.

You are bringing much needed insight to the world. If I may, I’d like to help offer clarity into how I view Extream Ownership. During episode 170 you and echo where discussing how it’s hard to explain and or understand what that means. I see it as team oriented culture that the leader instills. If your team fails but everyone takes ownership they will look back and think to themselves “could I have done anything different to ensure we succeed”. That answer is almost always “yes”. When individual, team, and leader are taking extreme ownership and the blame game is non-existent. The “removed brain” anolgy echo used is a great example of how people miss the point. We all know where we failed, but that’s not the point. It’s more about focusing the team on the job and the pathway to success vs highlight the weak link and using that as a scapegoat for failure. Take the field of fire mistake as example. Could the machine gunner done things differently? Yes! Could the person giving the pre-brief done things differently? Yes! Could the commander have done things differently? Yes! If everyone is is sharing that mindset and actively doing everything they can the team will perform at a high level.

Jocko,

First off the importance and impact of these podcasts cannot be over emphasized. You are bringing much needed insight to the world.

I see it as team oriented culture that the leader instills. If your team fails but everyone takes ownership they will look back and think to themselves “could I have done anything different to ensure we succeed”. That answer is almost always “yes”.

I served in the Marine Corps as an Arabic Linguist from 1990-1994. I was deployed with the 13th MEU on the LPH-11 USS New Orleans. We arrived off the coast of Somalia two weeks after the Blackhawk down incident. We conducted a show of force off the coast with the 26th MEU and their ARG. Yes, we had two ARG’s consisting of about 8 warships with approximately 4500 Marines ready to get some. We had reports and images of what happened to our Army brothers and I can tell you we were all really pissed off. I believe the USS Abraham Lincoln also participated in the first few days, sending F-18’s screaming over the city to let the Somalis know they’d better standby. Myself and five other Marines spent 45 days ashore embedded with a company of Pakistani infantry at Lido Beach in Northern Mogadishu. We had just been issued our first desert boots and were eager to put this new gear to use, however, our CO had different ideas. Colonel Outlaw ( yes, his name was really Outlaw ) passed the word for all Marines going ashore to wear our black combat boots. He wanted to make sure the Somalis knew that the “Black Boots” were back. In the first few years of the war Somali fighters learned to distinguish Marines and Army soldiers based on the color of their boots. As usual, Marines always get the cool stuff last. So, the slaughterhouse. A few days after being embedded with the Paki’s we observed a herd of camel’s being driven down the beach heading to the North. About three days later an awful stench developed, followed the next day by the thickest swarm of flies I’ve ever seen. We hung up fly paper in our comm’s tent and within an hour it was covered in flies. We started giving the different fly species helicopter designations based on their size ( CH-47, CH-53, etc…. ). Colonel Outlaw flew in one afternoon from the ship to check on us and commented on the awful stench and the flies. He asked how we could stand it, and we shrugged and said we couldn’t smell it anymore. He said he’d see what he could do to fix it. The next day a Somali on a bulldozer drove down the beach and within a few days the smell was gone as well as the flies. Our CO took care of his Marines. So, there was definitely a “slaughterhouse” right on the beach in Northern Mog. I was one of the fortunate few who got to go ashore. The 26th MEU went back to the Med after a few days and we sat off the coast of Somalia for almost three months and did NOTHING.

We have a12 yr old Labrador that we are religious about walking every night. I've taken this opportunity to play your Warrior Kid podcast for us to listen to together while we walk. Sometimes I think he's listening and other times I think he's not. We had only listened to about 5 podcast. After being at his moms for several days and returning to our home, we set off for our nightly routine. We were just walking and talking, catching up when suddenly he cuts me off and says "dad, are we gonna listen to that podcast like we usually do?" I have to say it was at that moment I realized he was getting more out of it that I thought he was. So from my son, Logan, and I.....thanks. As an aside he took his first Juijistu class tonight secondary to an event that happened in school last week. If you know of any instructional YouTube videos geared more towards kids, could you mention it in one of your podcast. Thanks for helping make a difference in children's lives.]]><![CDATA[

This is where gulags come from--those who will murder, lie, and commit horrible injustice all in the service of a 'greater good'. )In Machiavelli's case, it's Italian independence, but it could just as well be ideological purity.)Perhaps this would be excusable toward enemies intent on killing you or others (one doesn't owe the Gestapo the truth) but it is destructive guidance for leaders. Would anyone seriously want to work for someone who practiced what Machiavelli suggests? Appear to be honest but don't really be honest. Appear to value your people, but don't really value them. Do the right thing when you can, but lie, steal, cheat--whatever it takes to win--if you have to. This is not a leader whose word could ever be trusted. Machiavelli's 'Prince' is poison for anyone seeking to lead with integrity. I highly respect 'EO' and 'Dichotomy' (I'm reading EO with my admin team), but 'The Prince' operates on entirely different principles.]]><![CDATA[

I thought you did a magnificent job covering the content. But 2 things stood out to me. First, it would have been worth mentioning that the weapons used by the French and most British and allies were a smooth bore, flint lock musket. You were correct about that. However the 95th carried Rifled muskets or rifles. They did not carry the typical smoothbore. Thats why they were the 95th Rifles. They were essentially a special ops unit of sniper/skirmishers. The Rifles used the Baker rifle, or the pattern 1800 infantry Rifle. The 95th were absolutely badass. I'd also comment that the reason they lost so many limbs was the nature of the heavy lead balls that moved incredibly slow. They simply caused massive amounts of trauma via pulverization of bone and flesh. The rounds were very large and very slow.]]><![CDATA[

It started with avoidance and my son just trying to walk away. Shortly followed by him showing his frustration, then controlled anger. This kid was persistent , annoying, and having some fun. It was great to study my 5 year old's response and watch how it was going to play out. Especially after finishing your book. Ultimately, my son called him a Plate Face, then punched him!

I know you like to hear about what kids do so I will tell you even though I don't want to sound like a goody two-shoes. I worked hard and got straight A's. I do gymnastics, jiujitsu, spearfishing, and big wall climbing. My Dad and I climbed a 3000 ft vertical face in the Italian Dolomites this year and then we ate a whole pizza and gelato. It took us 7 and a half hours! My Mom and Dad took all us kids (5) out of school for the year to travel the world and learn about wars and history, culture, and the environment. We live in a new place every week. It has been hard to keep doing jiujitsu. How do I still maintain my skills? My Mom is a really fast runner and she has been waking me up early and taking me and my brother to the gym so now I can flag pole and deadlift 1.5 times my weight. All thanks to your podcast!

I wholeheartedly believe that 'this story shall the good man teach his son', because it's a great tale of triumph over overwhelming odds (estimated at 4 or 5 to 1).

His 'We shall fight them on the beaches' speech was clever on a very deep level.

I think that contrast jarred English hearts at a subconscious level, and helped give the nation the will to resist and to fight to the bitter end.

Comment on Jocko Podcast 19: Over-Detachment, Bullying, Helping VS Enabling, Theatrics/Acting, Use of Force by Jonathan Minixhttps://jockopodcast.com/2016/04/20/jocko-podcast-19-over-detachment-bullying-helping-vs-enabling-theatricsacting-use-of-force/#comment-2339<![CDATA[Jonathan Minix]]>Thu, 01 Nov 2018 16:21:02 +0000http://jockopodcast.wpengine.com/?p=395#comment-2339<![CDATA[Echo, your comments during this podcast (19) about reading being viewed as a chore and the analogy of reading being like entering a dark room was spot on and enlightening! I struggle with reading, always have. Most often it puts me to sleep. Almost every book I attempt to read ends for me long before even the middle of the pages. The same typically holds true for audio anything.However, I breezed through Jocko’s book Discipline Equals Freedom, Field Manual in just two days and am 1/2 through Extreme Ownership so far. What I’ve found to be the different from all those other books and these is from the very opening chapter of Extreme Ownership, I could actually visualize the words and the scene as Leif describes it. I could actually hear in my mind Leif’s voice. I followed along visually as he and his team took the first building entering the city, I went with him as he chased a man as he fled into the absolute darkness of the night, captured him but quickly found himself faced with 7 heavily armed men coming his way. I saw those same 7 men through the green glow of his NVGs. I found the same experience in the chapters written by Jocko. I’m currently reading one of Jacko’s chapters regarding a new Lieutenant wanting to take on a long patrol through 3 US Forces controlled sectors with new Iraqi Soldiers vs a short patrol within their own control. It was a movie playing on my minds big screen as they stood over the sand table talking. Then as the firefight broke out just 12 minutes into the patrol I watched Jocko as he checked his stop watch, then again as he ran to the roof to extend his radio antenna for better reception to get updates and coordinate support efforts! The way they are telling their stories I’m captivated and it’s EXACTLY as you said Echo, I turned the light on in the room (my mind) and now I can see what’s in there. I can see my version of their experience and it’s awesome! Thank you, all three of you, for the books and these podcasts. Thank you for the motivation and the different perspectives on managing and dealing with things and people - LIFE. Though I still struggle with my boss, he’s just an ignorant dick! But I approach him differently now. Our last 1:1 meeting I stopped pointing my finger and asked him “what can I do to improve our working relationship?” I asked “What am I not providing that you need to better support our office?” As soon as I asked those two questions, the tone of the meeting changed drastically for both of us! I actually shook his hand as I walked out of his office, first time that ever happened in the four+ years I’ve worked for him. And that’s because of these books, these podcasts, because you you all!

Jocko/Echo,

I enjoyed your exchange about luck during episode 146. I live by the mantra “Luck Favors the Prepared” and have heard Echo mention “chance favors the prepared” in this and a previous episode.

I’d like to share a story from TQ, Iraq in February 2005 about luck from the opposite perspective of Jocko’s. I had an epiphany about luck during an aircraft preflight with a young Lance Corporal crew chief from the squadron relieving my unit.

I was reminded of a book I read long ago by a former Soviet Army Captain named Viktor Suvorov. "Inside the Soviet Army". Jocko, if you haven't read it, do. It's very fascinating and, based on comments from friends of mine who served in branches of the Soviet military, very accurate. The take away from the book that remains with me to this day is that it was Soviet military policy to, in the future event of war with the USA, to launch all their nuclear weapons at once. There were two reasons for this: 1) it's a very effective way to destroy your enemy and win, and 2) the Soviet leaders realized that upwards of 75% of the people would defect immediately at the start of war, and therefore if you destroy the enemies territory there's no where for them to go. This is thinking no doubt fueled by copious amounts of vodka (which Suvorov goes into detail about), but also thinking which reflects the practical reality of a people suffering (even at the highest levels) under a doomed political system. I hope you enjoy the book. And by the way, thanks for the recommend of Hackworth's About Face. I'm reading it now and it's truly excellent. Thanks for your podcasts!Matt]]><![CDATA[

Take the most talented from that department and privately, one by one, tell them what’s going on.

Get enough on board, and start a business with them that provides the services of that department to the company.

Just some background on myself, I was an Air Force pilot for 9 years, separated from active duty and currently fly with the airlines. If I get injured or sick in any way, I cannot fly, and subsequently won't get paid. The reason I tell you that is because my job is highly dependent on my physical health and ability to be in the flight deck. Having said that, I would love to start getting involved with jujitsu and was wondering how to do that without getting injured to the point of not being able to fly. Are there jujitsu training programs/gyms out there that would "go easy" on me so to speak, knowing that my career depends upon my body being fully in tack? If not, are there other training avenues you would recommend I pursue that would replicate a learning environment similar to jujitsu without the potential for physical injuries?]]><![CDATA[

I've noticed that there is a lot of people who don't understand the difference between forgiving and accepting whatever bad the other party has done to you. Forgiving is not the same as accepting that whatever you did was okay. If someone takes a punch on at the street, it's not okay, and it never will. But it will not bring any good to you, id you keep thinking the incident and create negative thoughts of it. Instead, you should forgive and accept that the sh*t happened, but you don't agree that what they guy did is acceptable. I'm not sure if I'm able to describe my point cleary, but the point is that forgiving is a way to put you back on positive track, without saying that "it was okay what you did". It's more like "you did wrong, I don't care, it doesn't affect my life anymore".]]><![CDATA[

Dear uncle Jake,

I am 26 years old, and enjoy listening to the warrior kid podcast.
i am quite sure you don’t have to be a kid to learn a lot from it (and maybe, just because it is meant for kids, detaching and reflecting (at least somewhat) objectively about the things you discuss is slightly easier for people that don’t consider themselves kids).

clearly i still have tons to learn from you, but i also have one thing i think you should consider:
you sometimes say that when you were in college, whenever you didn’t get something, you raised up your hand right away and asked the lecturer about it.
then you encourage us to do the same.

in my opinion, it is probably a good advice for lectures.
however, i think that when you are studying alone and struggling with some exercise etc., you should really try to first tackle it by yourself, and only in case you are still stuck after putting some time and effort into it, only then, maybe you should ask for help.
and even then, ask for just a little hint, so that you would be able to figure most of it yourself.
at least once a day while studying, i notice my brain telling me “give up, just move on to the next topic”, and i have a note for such moments that reminds me of the Seals’ 40% rule.
i think that we often give up too soon, and trying some more might actually make the difference.
and when we figure out a tough exercise on our own, not only do we probably understand the material much better, but we also gain some confidence in our potential to overcome obstacles, if we just throw enough time and effort at them.

obviously, you don’t have to agree with me, but i just wanted to share this thought.

thanks for everything 🙂
Oren

Comment on 80: How The Way of The Samurai Translates to Life Today. Musashi, “The Book of Five Rings” by Johnhttps://jockopodcast.com/2017/06/21/80-how-the-way-of-the-samurai-translates-to-life-today-musashi-the-book-of-five-rings/#comment-2204<![CDATA[John]]>Wed, 11 Jul 2018 19:29:33 +0000http://jockopodcast2.com/?p=955#comment-2204<![CDATA[I’m not claiming to know everything but here are some things that will help: 1) don’t fall into the habit of looking for the “7 skills of x group” or the “1 thing/motivation to change your life. While I’m not against learning how to take on life’s challenges from others, the only way one’s life is turned to the better is not through motivational speakers but the courage and to take action now and start to move towards what is good. However one should also remember to 2) stay humble. Many people, when they set out for a goal, they get stuck in the habit of setting too high of standards to achieve. However, this almost always fails as these people are setting goals that simply out of their reach. For example, I bet you might know some people tried to get into running only to get banged up since they did not have the humility to admit that they couldn’t run 5 miles after years of inactivity. People get stuck in this trap as doing things they see as ‘hardcore’ as appealing and their ego prevents them from taking the small steps they need as to do so would mean to admit that they’re not that great after all. 3) steady and unyielding effort. This note is somewhat opposite of the 2nd one as while sometimes people don’t have the humility to go slow when they need to, at other times they fail to rely on their courage to push themselves to do the things they know they should do but are afraid of. As such progress is life is not a matter fast and hard but slow yet persistent and unyielding work. Further, there will be times where progress slows, stops, or even reverses, but you have to remember that many people in a similar situation have lost battles but go on to win the war. Take the Vietnam War for example. Although the US won nearly every major battle the Viet Cong were able to drive out the Americans through more than a decade of persistent and unyielding harassment in small guerilla skirmishes that eventually broke US’s will to fight. So to recap, take action now and don’t wait for some “next great thing” to turn things around for you, be humble and take small steps, but also be unrelenting in these steps and never give up, even if you get stuck or fail. I hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck]]><![CDATA[

Looking back at history and even today, it looks to me like once in a while, particularly in tough times, economically or due to war pressures, etc. When people who would normally not be able to get to a leadership position take power. How do you recognize them early on, before they cause mass genocides or decades of war and remove them in a positive way? I can't help but feel that a lot of lives could have been saved, if people recognized Hitler sooner for instance. And a lot of our best men and women could have lived. Awesome podcast! I liked your take on women leaders.]]><![CDATA[

It’s as if I am a prisoner within, I’ve faced treatment, counseling and yet the guilt and sadness I feel overcomes and takes it’s place at the forefront. I’m successful, finished a 20 year Military career as a Corpsman, received my Bachelors degree, and continue in graduate school to become a Physician Assistant but again, I feel numb and empty.

In that way, he would have made Chesty proud.

The brilliant and larger than life recount of “Chesty” Puller would inspire the meekest and idealistic of men to go “get some” and run post haste to the nearest Marine Corp depot to sign up. I was myself fired up hearing the life of the legend. My uncle serves in Guadalcanal & many members of my family are Marines. In the following podcast the powerful and brutal story of what the majority of infantry men face in every war and the savage wounding of the legends son is the cold hard reality. I had to stop and restart more than once and brought on with crystal clear clarity, my own fathers and uncles objections to my joining the military — both served and lost several friends in WW2, Korea and Vietnam. As an adult I’ve lost friends in Iraq and Afghanistan- you may know a couple. The solemn and sobering events of Lewis Puller JR reminds me to appreciate those who live a life of service and are prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice without thought— without conditions.

Lewis Puller was an interesting man and great leader. I wanted to drop a little note, being a Sherman tank Fanatic, and knowing Jocko's love of tankers, I wanted to share some interesting facts. The Marines used the M4A1, M4A2 and M4A3 Shermans during the war, but the M4A1s only got used once, and only one company was deployed, and that was to Cape Gloucester. A Company of the 1st Marine Tank Battalion and Gloucester was not tank friendly country. They could not get all the tanks ashore, just not room, and at one point they left one in a LCM and it shell shore targets from the landing craft!In several cases, they have to build a log road to get the tanks up to the fight. Marine tankers fought with their hatches closed and locked, this lead to problems working with the Marine grunts, and it took them a long time to figure out a good solution for this problem, but the Marines, and the Army in Europe came up with the solution, independently, of mounting a phone on the back of the tank. The Marines always kept this phone on their tanks, and the Army did too up to the M1 Abrams, and then added it back on with one of the TUSK upgrades. Imagine being inside a steel box in equatorial Jungle, that has not great ventilation, and opening the hatches was unsafe if the Japanese were around.

He’s portrayed by western media as a ruthless power hungry leader. Last article I read in Times magazine said that he only portrays that Russian is doing great but in reality he’s done more harm then good because of his short sightedness. Looking at Russian economy from my perspective it’s doing a much better then it did when he became a leader, also their geo political game seems to be getting better . I watched a bunch of interviews of him and he looks like he knows his stuff. The ones with Megyn Kelly is the most entertaining and NBC’s editing screams propaganda.

It would be great if you guys could give this talk in Canada and the US to every college, craft-alcohol business etc. I'm happy to spill my whole soul on this any day! Trust me its a problem. Particularly bc it happens a lot around colleges and small businesses - everyone's an entrepreneur. Most are still dumbasses. Is it ok to say - "f*ck it, we've had a long day, lets drink! it's "market research".... to a group of 20 yr old dumbasses and get everyone drunk before, after, work/class whatever? Hope at the end of the tunnel looks like this "yes, you're right, that's not ok, let's talk to this guy." vs..." you can't talk of this ever, there's no problem, we don't care about DUIs and no one will ever hire you again". Any altitude on that?? :) seriously... Joko? Pls?...bc it sure looks like a sh*t storm from over here and I'd love to go anywhere where it doesn't. But encouraging ppl to NOT care about alcohol issues is NOT the answer - and they sure as hell made my life sh*t for trying to speak up...and its not the kind of thing u can afford to NOT speak up about. Catch 22. Before u ask, no there's no one in the industry I could approach, bc its the kind of thing no one wants to deal with - extreme ownership doesn't exist - extreme excuses DO. And if u try to encourage extreme ownership... u get pressured into quitting and shut out of the field... and I'm now listening to this and wanting to argue with my monitor. Can u reach over here and drag me over there? Where logic still exists. Ppl need to take responsibility, it needs to change where instead of winning the game by avoiding it, you win by taking it! Bc right now, u lose by trying to encourage responsibility and ownership. Big time. It doesn't work if just 1 person does it. The more I did, the more I ended up being marginalized in the group - bc that's just not the "culture", its not "the way it works". They blamed each other, its no one's responsibility, and manipulated the situation until I ended up cut off. Instead of ppl seeing it as a good thing, leadership, ownership etc, its seen as "oh, well maybe you're just not good at fitting it", "do u have trouble making friends, how is ur family life?" Yes, that's the feedback I got... from up the chain of command. I'm ok drinking under normal circ*mstances, its fun under safe, controlled circ*mstances, but its Not ok encouraging getting plastered or drinking and driving for god's sake. That's what I got for saying don't encourage getting drunk and doing stupid sh*t (long list). Again, Catch 22. Can't go along with it, can't speak up either. They employed ppl and profs and professionals happy to promote getting plastered every day and got rid of me. Please, drag over... how do I get over there? I need fire support...or like a rescue mission bc I'm pretty sure I lost this battle and they managed to systematically mess up quite a bit of my life at the same time...though again, not as much as a DUI would! Air support? I'll pledge 5% of my income to your podcast for the rest of my life if you can help in this. Yes, I'm serious, u have it in writing.

Each one makes me want to hear it over and over (which i do), because they are deeper and well selected. However, i don't like Tim's readings, they seem random and shallow almost like a high school child highlighting lines that he know's will be on a multiple choice test, while your readings are more like and essay answer to a test question. Plus i couldn't help but notice Tim complaining about Giraffes can't dance (makes me think of his bad 4 hour books). Anyway, you must redo this book review on an other podcast, this time just you and Echo (dang!).]]><![CDATA[

If there was such a thing as beyond human courage and endurance, Travis you're it. I wanted to maybe ask if you guys ever heard of Open Bionics (search #bionics on twitter). You would make a kickass Bionic Man, Travis. I know company start-ups in bionic limbs are gaining traction. Robotics is an emerging field, it won't be long now. I saw a full robot doing push-ups the other day. Bionic limbs are here already. They're using 3d printed materials so its easy to produce them and they're light weight. Travis would be a great candidate. #BionicTravis ?]]><![CDATA[

Anyone who eats sushi as regularly as you report in this podcast is at risk for accumulated mercury in their bodies. Mercury has been put into the oceans via industrialization, especially since the advent of printed circuits, and the fish that are most commonly used in sushi are food chain accumulators. The test is not complicated, nor expensive and your health care provider probably will cover it since your behavior puts you at risk of this type of poisoning. Mercury poisoning is insidious as it develops very slowly and the symptoms are easily mistaken for other issues until way too late.

Last year my bands mates bailed on me in one fashion or another.

As time went on I slowly realized that I just want to make powerful records. Touring sucks, my only musical hero I really wanted recognition from is dead (Dimebag Darrell, Pantera) and there is little to no money in the metal industry.

I found myself cracking up and nodding in agreement at both perspectives of your prior employment. I had to laugh at the line of people listening to this at a job they aren’t happy with as I was in the process of moving 20 cases each with 6 gallons of spring water for my shift, at 3am Thanksgiving Day. I find myself in this job because retail work became my comfort zone. I found a decent paying job out of high school and got comfortable with the life I was living. Until that comfort became scarce. Business took a turn for the worse and that safe zone became wrought with doubt, as to if I would continue to be employed or not. At this point, I reassed my life, my goals, and most importantly, my drive. This introspection led me to a simple and life changing realization: if you are constantly improving, in any way shape or form, the circ*mstances of your world become much easier to handle. As of this day, I am over halfway through a degree (10 years later than most students) and am 60 lbs less fat than a year ago. Things obviously can go sideways on a moments notice, but with more preparedness, more determination, and frankly, more guts, one can wade into deep waters and come back fine. I guess in a long winded way, I’m saying that discipline equals freedom (pretty good quote if I say so myself, you guys should maybe do a book on that or something, I dunno). While I tap this small novel away on my iPhone sitting in the desolate break room, I take solace in knowing that while I’m nowhere near where I want to be, I am building myself up to walk that long path, and understanding that “where you want to be” is a trick in and of itself. The destination does not matter if you are strong enough to walk the harshest paths. Thank you to the both of you for providing me with both entertainment and motivation as I sling groceries onto the shelves for the starving masses, and may you both have a safe a pleasant Thanksgiving.P.S. My dog drank some white tea that I spilled and grew two more heads. If you have any advice on how to effectively train a Cerberus I would greatly appreciate it.]]><![CDATA[

WOW. That was a truly profound and inspiring episode. Thank you Jocko and Tim for that mental and spiritual journey. Musashi is now at the top of my reading list.

I was sitting in rush hour traffic yesterday, heading home from work, listening to Jocko read the final scene from the book, and I was mentally in a whole different place. It was like the traffic was gone, my car was gone, and I was there along the strait, watching Musashi and Kojiro duel it out.

What color was the the stop light? How would you feel about a theory that your mind is asking you to stop putting yourself through the pain of training at a high level, and that it is manifesting itself in the form of a visual sign literally telling you to "stop". Great work pushing past that barrier. You're an inspiration.]]><![CDATA[

I just recieved my copy of Discipline Equals Freedom and it's dope. I have learnt much from listening to the podcast and reading Mr. Willink's books. I particularly enjoyed the recent episode with Dr. Jordan Peterson.I have a question regarding martial arts that I hope can be answered. The following preamble gives context to the question: The best martial arts gym in my city is run by men involved in organised crime. To clarify, I live in a particularly corrupt state, so they are connected and collude with various entities, including the police, security companies, government, etc. I knew about this but believe them to be the best trainers in the city (I still do with regards to striking) and went there for that purpose. They kept the training of students and extra martial affairs separate, but these were not particularly secret to anyone who lives in the city. I have left the gym to learn grappling, which they did not offer. But the moral question of going there in the first place didn't sit well with me, but obviously not enough to stop me training there for the past few months. I am interested in Mr Willink's thoughts to these questions: What are a/the few absolutely unacceptable qualities of a martial arts instructor, both in terms of their training and character/activities outside of the gym? The second question is it morally acceptable to train under someone who is immoral or amoral in their conduct outside of their gym? I hope these questions can be addressed, but thank you for your time regardless. All the best!]]><![CDATA[

I am a huge fan and loyal listener. Travis Mills story is something I can barely wrap my mind around and this episode has probably been one of the best so far.I have a slightly off topic question with regards to this specific episode, however, related to military matters in general.I am half American, half German and my cousin (in Germany) recently decided to join the KSK (Kommando Spezial Krafte). It is our equivalent to the Navy Seals and considered to be our most elite commando. Since we have not been active officially in the Iraq war I am not sure if you have ever had the chance to work with KSK. However - we have been and still are part of the coalition forces in Afghanistan where Travis was stationed. My question is:Have you ever been working with the KSK? What is your impression of them? Can they hang with the US forces toughing it out there? My cousin (also dual national) faced the dilemma of choosing between enlisting in the US and Germany and picked the latter. Many thanks for the input in advance and thanks a lot for your service.]]><![CDATA[

Nothing I did was tempering the stress, no weights, or running, or sleeping, I was a sh*t show. Then I thought to myself, "I know Jocko would say just get after it, but he can f*ck right off, I've been going after it for 4 years and I am God damn done."Then I saw this podcast, I listened straight through and I'm not one who says, "look at what this guy went through, I can at least pick myself up and move forward." I can empathize, but really, I can't relate to what happened in these situations. Nevertheless, something clicked. It's times like these where discipline becomes so important. If we can remove all uncertainty from things we can control, it gives us the energy to manage the onslaught of sh*t we deal with on a daily basis.

While quality of food is important, when I worked 15 hour days on a construction site and rock climbed with every free moment, I found that the only way to sustain my energy levels was to eat more than what made me full and to do so frequently (more than three times per day). Important to note that this was high quality food. 2: Pick a workout plan that is also an activity that you're passionate about and stimulates your imagination. For me, this was rock climbing. Instead of being a grind that I would dread at the end of a long work day, I'd look forward to it, itching for the day to be over so I could engage in my passion. Find your passion and do it, this alone will boost energy, as most burn out comes from the mind. 3: Meditate, meditate, meditate. Meditation will not only help you stay in touch with yourself and your passions, which will infuse you with energy, it will improve the quality of your sleep, and thus provide direct energetic increases into your body. Awareness feeds passion, passion feeds energy, energy feeds awareness. Let the cycle begin.Stay passionate, stay aware, and stay strong. Good luck!]]><![CDATA[

I would like to make you aware that there is another book from the Japanese tradition called the Code of the Samurai, the Bushido Shoshinsu, translated by T. Cleary, that is a great window into the traditional Japanese warrior class and is consequently an excellent guide for men who have the mindset to prepare themselves to overcome adversaries and adversity. Its author was Taira Shigesuke, a Confucian scholar and military scientist, born in 1639, near the height of 500 years of military rule in Japan.]]><![CDATA[

THIRST FOR COMBAT:

CDR Willink,
I have a question about wanting to be in combat.

Im from Ireland and since I was a kid I wanted to leave home and fight. Im about to join the irish army and irish foreign policy dictates that we are militarly neutral. Although they go on UN and EU peace keeping missions in places that aren’t exactly holiday resorts, they are realtively calm compared to what you experienced.

My question is; how do I quench this thirst for combat when its unlikely im going to see it?

This question keeps me up at night, I dread living a life of just doing a stint in the army and moving on.

I hope this questions finds you in good faith.
This doesn’t have to be on a podcast or anything like that but I would gratefully appreciate your take on it.

Kind regards

Jocko,

Thanks for this Episode. It was helpful for me this week, to stop complaining and Get After It.

I have a question:

I’ve found myself recently resenting those unwilling to make similar sacrifices to those I’ve made in my life.

I’m not in a position to leave my organization at the moment, and I’m constantly in an uphill battle because I share the field with teammates who are less committed. Our Team results this year have been less than stellar and it comes from a lack of a high standard of performance across the board.

How do you come to be comfortable with the lack of discipline and mediocrity around you?

What advice do you have for someone who’s not at the top of the chain, and cannot institute swift monumental change on a large scale?

I’m getting frustrated as I’m constantly growing, learning and changing (thanks for your help) and not seeing outstanding results.

By tuning and listening to your words and thoughts on discipline, mind control, war stories and tactics, I've started to take care of the little things. Bigger things are starting to fall into place. My mountain is chemistry at the graduate level. It's not hard once I'm in it, but I notice I find every little excuse to avoid until I'm acting under pressure; and the results are never as good. Since listening, I've started to put my phone down more. Get better results. Be on the offensive, even with finances. I am proud. I suppose I could ask all these little questions, how can I do this or that, but for now - I have an overwhelming feeling, that they will fall into place. Nothing individual comes to mind. Ah, except one thing. I have 3 pops, resulting in two surgeries and an injury that cannot be surgically rectified in my right knee. Daily pain inspires fear in me, and it feels insurmountable to return to martial arts, Jiu Jitsu, and even certain realms of my self confidence. It seems, that no one understands the depth of my predicament. Could you comment, please? Thank you.]]><![CDATA[

Comment on 71: Heroes are not Perfect. Never Judge. The Will to Overcome REAL Hardship: “A Helmet for my Pillow” by Robert Leckie by Chris Kinghttps://jockopodcast.com/2017/04/19/71-heroes-are-not-perfect-never-judge-the-will-to-overcome-real-hardship-a-helmet-for-my-pillow-by-robert-leckie/#comment-1808<![CDATA[Chris King]]>Wed, 19 Apr 2017 13:12:10 +0000http://jockopodcast2.com/?p=914#comment-1808<![CDATA[Great podcast . The password of "Lilliputian" was a bad safe word for sure. It reminds me of the Hebrews that used the safe word "Shibboleth" (Judges 12:6 ) because the palate of the Ephraimites could not construct the syllables to pronounce the word. When a Hebrew sentry caught a Ephraimite that could not speak the term, 42,000 Ephraimites were slaughtered that day. I suspect the Japanese struggled with any English word that started with "L". The previous safe word was "Lalapalloza" or "Lilly" according to some historians. You are right "Lilliputian" was difficult for a drunk soldier to remember and probably pronounce. Moral of that story or my take away, don't overthink a process that could easily be modified to achieve the same purpose. Sincerely,Chris King, PhDPresidentDallas Christian School]]><![CDATA[

Dear Mr Joko, Dear Mr Echo, Queen Gardne.

This is kind of treatment of women occurs throughout much of the world today. The cutting off of body parts, child marriage, and gang rapes are regular headlines in many countries. As you well know. I wish the women in the west would understand what true victims are and start marching for them. And stop this nonsense self-serving self-appointed victimization. They need some serious perspective and to start taking responsibility for their life and where they are in it. These women marching as "victims" do not speak for me. As a woman in the west, I am blessed beyond belief. Because of people like you who have served this country and protected my rights, I will never be a victim. No matter who is elected.]]><![CDATA[

In certain fields of work, you will often work with people who wouldn't be considered 'normal' people. You will work amongst former convicts and generally undesirable types of people. Im referring to the construction and trades field. In this economic time its hard to walk away from a 20-something dollar per hour job because you don't enjoy working with a convict or someone that has criminal and bully-like intentions. We generally suck it up and just keep our mouthes shut. How would you handle a situation like that?]]><![CDATA[

Great episode.

Jocko’s pictures of his watch every morning are a motivation for me. I was a bubblehead so waking up early is no probably for me. My problem is keeping that habit up because my bedtime is never consistent.

Has Jocko talked about his bedtime routine that allows him to wake at 4:30am? Any recommendations?

So far I'm enjoying it so far and it's cool to see that some "labels" to things that I believe in, like extreme ownership, and hearing about them being used in practice. I think it's cool how much Echo looks up to you in the podcast, but sometimes I wish he'd be a little more willing to call you on your sh*t, Jocko. Not because your full of sh*t. But, a good friend and a good partner in my opinion is willing to call you on your sh*t when it needs to happen. Instead you have to rely on calling yourself out on your own sh*t (which is cool and I give you credit for doing so), but I feel like Echo isn't doing fulfilling his full potential in the podcast. This episode had a great example when you were talking about rituals and you started saying that you're busted and rather than Echo agreeing he's too busy saying, "No you're not busted man. You're never busted. You're the man." Anyways, that's my opinion. Word is everyone has one. Otherwise keep up on doing what you're doing, Jocko, and I'll continue listening.]]><![CDATA[

Your insights regarding war and its impact are profound. I am a psychologist and work significantly medically ill patients. They are often struggling to fight for their lives. With your podcast, I have gained considerable awareness in the application of war strategies and leadership not only in helping to lead my clients through their battles, but also in transferring this to my own personal goals. Your discussions with Echo also serve as reminders to harness my own self-discipline. Warm regards, I sincerely thank you!]]><![CDATA[

Good Morning Gentlemen:

I listed to podcast #9 this morning and the end of the podcast was very moving. I wish every American was aware of the costs of war and the toll it takes on the men and women who serve.

My father was a World War II Veteran (pilot) and when I was very young – and feeling very bold – I asked him if he believed in God. (In hindsight, I still can’t I believe I was bold enough to ask him that question.) Men of his era did not speak of religion or discuss emotions, but I wanted to know if my father believed in God.

His reply was with a war story, as many responses were, and although it has been over 30 years since he answered my question, I have never forgotten his response:

“There are many men who say they don’t believe in God, but when planes were being shot down, the last words I heard a lot were “Oh my God, oh my God.”

Fortunately, my father survived World War II and I realized latter in life, that the war always remained with him. The sacrifices made by those before us should never be forgotten.

Thank you for reminding me that not one moment of life should be spent in sadness or regret. Every moment is truly precious and your positive messages cast a ripple effect in the never ending motion of life.

Sincerely,
Lisa Riley

Just turned on the first. I was in the Navy myself. One of my co-workers was incredibly motivated and driven. So much so, that at the time it was very frustrating to me; he put his needs and desires above those of the job, and he was often difficult to work with. Pure epitome of alpha male. Like I said, at the time, he frustrated me, but on reflection, so much of the person he was, is now the driving force behind my motivation today. For example, we had one specific exchange that changed the rest of my life. He said to me, you know what the difference between me and you is? My natural state is movement, and yours is sedentary. This exchange took place on a Navy DDG in the South China Sea. That same day was the first time I had a recreational workout since I was a teenager. I don't know why that exchange had such an impact on me, but it did. Here I am, 5 years later, 31 years old, in the best shape of my life. I want to run my first marathon and hit my first 5 plate deadlift in 2016.This co-worker eventually revealed to me that his true driving force was to be a SEAL. He had so much drive and focus that I can't imagine anything would stop him. He was more physically fit and had more mental toughness than any other person I've ever met. I ask myself every day if I'm doing the things I need to do to achieve my goals, and that discussion leads to asking myself, would he be doing more? The answer is always yes and it forces me to realize the potential is higher. That little story is why I'm so interested in the insight from a Navy SEAL. I hope your podcast gets the following it deserves.]]><![CDATA[

I don’t know why that exchange had such an impact on me, but it did. Here I am, 5 years later, 31 years old, in the best shape of my life. I want to run my first marathon and hit my first 5 plate deadlift in 2016.

This co-worker eventually revealed to me that his true driving force was to be a SEAL. He had so much drive and focus that I can’t imagine anything would stop him. He was more physically fit and had more mental toughness than any other person I’ve ever met. I ask myself every day if I’m doing the things I need to do to achieve my goals, and that discussion leads to asking myself, would he be doing more? The answer is always yes and it forces me to realize the potential is higher.

That little story is why I’m so interested in the insight from a Navy SEAL. I hope your podcast gets the following it deserves.

Thanks Jocko and Echo.I wanted to post my thoughts concerning something that Echo spoke on. Often, I hear people speak of removing the "losers" and people that discourage from our lives. To me, this seems a little selfish and it seems to step away from the idea of ownership. In essence, we are saying, "it's your fault that I'm not succeeding, so I can't be around you anymore and be a good friend/family member." In these situations, we need to see ourselves as leaders and inspirations to our friends and family instead of abandon them. We should let their words of discouragement become words that encourage us so we can prove to them and to ourselves that success can be achieved.However, I do believe in the importance of finding good mentors from whom we can learn (IE: this podcast!). The influence of a good mentor can be so power in helping us achieve our goals. Anyway, my two cents. Thanks again Jocko and Echo for these great podcasts.Jocko - Do you ever do any speaking events?
