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

And i think that's one of the most important lessons he tries to teach: life won't be easy, but you have to keep pushing. Not just for your sake and the sake of those you love around you, but for the ones that have sacrificed and fallen who will never get the opportunity to. Truly powerful.

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

You are changing people's lives for the better. I'm somewhat new to your channel, but you are adding to the collective of positive messaging that's out there. Years of putting the right stuff in my head and, most importantly, acting on it. Has put my life on a totally different trajectory. So, thank you. Thank you for what you do, and being so very good at it. The ones that really want to make a change will listen, and they will take action. Unfortunately, most people won't do anything. They'll just wish, complain, blame, and vanish into nothing. That being said, just realize that most people won't understand what you're doing. They're not bad people, they just don't understand. To them, it's all fear and scary stuff. Stay the course, collect the reward, and ignore the distractions. Get it!!

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

@KaylaJo96 18 күн бұрын

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

I have seen a new side of Jocko today that I didn’t know existed. Going through a hard period in my life right now and this episode really struck a chord with me. Thank you, Jocko and thank you, Stephen. Cheers

I love Jocko Willink! As a woman he’s always been one of my favorites to listen too- he got me thru some hard times. His book about discipline and extreme ownership changed my life. Great interview….where I am today from 10 years ago blows my mind!

@MelFlagg Right. It's like people don't understand what war is in 2024. In most cases both sides are fighting with innocent people...

Jocko looks like Jim Norton and Matt Damon cloned with Hulk DNA - how are they gonna cast the biopic!? - he's an example of humanity we can show aliens and A.I's to show we're worthy of existing. His mind, spirit and drive are singular. Great Episode!

This was awesome…..I was a comms guy for ST3 as a MCT guy and I learned so much from SEALS that I carried these lessons learned for the rest of my life. Retired after 25 years, the best time of my military life. In a speech right before deploying from Coronado, and I quote “ You’re about to enter a battlefield and war will make you grow up quick, You have to grow up now”, we were a very young group. “ go out and have some fun and have a few drinks and if you get into a fight, don’t stick around to admire your work.”

That was an absolutely incredible episode. I was glued to every word. Just incredibly moving and inspiring. I believe you are the absolute best interviewer I know…asking thoughtful questions and giving your guests the time and space to answer. You never interrupt or make it about you. Thank you for all you do.

Im a 25 yo woman who has lost her bff last december, ive heard the news 1 month later, i was waiting for her texts cuz we were talking a lot and coudnt wait to see each other during christmas or summer and basically i wrote on my card thank you for everything. Thank you for you. Ill never thank you enough for everything you brought in my life. Hearing him say thank you for everything made me cry because i understand this so much. I never met someone like her and i know sadly how unique she is. I cant believe i have to live those next years without being able to reach out to her and talk to her. Even tho i do everyday

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