You got it brother BE AGRESSIVE

You don't even have to be loud to be extremely threatening... In a calm quiet voice, after listening to a guy yelling obscenities at me for fifteen minutes about a girlfriend I hadn't even met, I swallowed the last of my beer, and responded. "Yeah, I've got a hundred and a quarter in cash, and could take three days off... you ready?" He blinked a couple times and asked, "A hundred and a quarter and three days for what?" "Assault and battery after the first arrest," I replied, "Court costs and all, it's a hundred and a quarter and three days in this state. You didn't know that?" I just did my best to say it as "matter of fact" as I'd be telling someone the price of a cheeseburger. He left the bar... I've still never met his "girlfriend" (if she exists)... BUT no, you don't have to be "that kind" of aggressive most of the time. It's a matter (more) of being "Pro-active" rather than "Re-active"... The pro-active do their best to foresee things coming up... issues or just "the next usual step", and they do things about it BEFORE it's detrimental. The RE-active will "wait and see" by default, meandering the whole operation from one crisis to another waiting game, because "it's going to take as long as it takes"... Nobody's right all the time, but the ones who try to act a little ahead of detriment will cut time, cost, and waste more often than they will hinder operations and leave workers and leaders standing around or stranded mid-project. There are better ways to "get the point across" than yelling and spewing filth at people. We didn't like our parents shouting "Because I f***ing said so!" when we were hormonally imbalanced teens, and we're not going to care much for it when our bosses shout that sort of crap as adults... BUT a reasonable explanation can impose the convincing argument to get a worker to "prestage" things ahead of the rest of the team "needing" them... even when there's still a chance they won't even need them. "I'd rather have it and not need it than need it desperately and not have it." ;o)

yeah I don’t respond well to threats . know why? because I really am violent which is why I have to be aware of my surroundings and the type of people...and the volume of my voice . I mean for a little guy I got a huge voice. and when I’m having fun it might attract unwanted attention that would definitely get on my nerves .

And this is my struggle, I balance my natural aggression with a strong sense of self-doubt (that I developed as I got older). My confidence came mostly from the ignorance of my youth. The person who directed me to this episode is a great guy, young, a bit of a meat head. He also has social anxiety he handles his life with aggressiveness (defense mechanism) mostly because the area we live in is full of high performing humans that are great at debating and after hearing this he feels validated and encourage to continue, being "aggressive" while I've been preaching the value of self doubt and the ability of introspectively look at yourself.

I've always preferred the terms "Pro-active" versus "Re-active"... SO you've got a choice. You already know there's GOING to be the next issue coming along "down the pipe" in ANY job... You only work peacefully putting things in place like nothing between crises... The Choice is simple. You can get PRO-active about the next foreseeable issue(s) and try to do something about them before they grind your operation to a halt... costing time and money... OR you can stand around and be RE-active, waiting for the figurative monkey wrench to crash into the works and then dread facing the people who depend on you from every angle to have ALL those conversations about what you WERE NOT doing. Pick, and then hope you've made the better decision. Aggressive leadership in war, means always TAKING ground... always moving FORWARD, because you've decided that you're doing this mission one way or another "come Hell or High Water"... as it were. Sometimes you can't help playing the "waiting game"... Sometimes that's the right answer, and nobody I've met ever liked the waiting game. BUT anytime you wonder what you should pick, "moving forward" is probably the better choice... and rely on guys around (like Jocko) who would rather "reign you in" than try to "prod you forward". There are probably superiors to your position who DO know better... and it's their duty to reign you in when you don't have all the details to know when you should back off. ;o)

@@gnarthdarkanen7464 Right on. Aggression is bad in normal society. I remember when it became a buzzword and everyone in business started to use it. Most people had a "yuck" response. But I guess being aggressive is more of a winning strategy because we are stuck with this lame use of a word, that requires endless qualification. If you are up for assault and get all into describing how you aggressively pursued a solution to the problem of the bar fight, good luck. You are probably serving time. The history of the word is not positive, unless you are engaged in something like war.

the opposite of the ''right Aggression'' is the ''emotional female aggression'': become vocally loud, lose common sense, lose self-control, do illogical/irrational decisions, spread chaos and panic

Calv Candie oh man. Thanks for this. I needed this clarification.

I understand what you're saying, but prey drive and aggression are two totally different things when it comes to dogs.

Sk8 Traveler Those are if you define both words in a vacuum. With regard to aggression in this conversation, it works perfectly, and applies to humans as well, from a psychological perspective.

​@@chrisbessey358 It's a flawed analogy, especially from a psychological perspective. We are talking about two different functions of an animal's brain. One is an instinctual function, and the other is a reaction to a situation that is perceived by the dog to be dangerous or uncomfortable. Perhaps from a poetic perspective his analogy makes sense, but certainly not from a logical, scientific perspective.

@@sk8traveler727 you can take anything we humans do. You can be aggressive when you're angry. Most certainly yes. But aggression in its purest form is to reach a goal. Fishes do it. Dogs do it. And humans too

​@@heavymeddle28 However you try to spin it, your analogy is factually and logically unsound. I'm not going to argue with you, research the difference between prey drive and aggression in dogs yourself, and you will see that your comparison does not hold up. Sorry, it may have sounded nice, but facts are facts.

Sometimes nothing IS actually the best choice. Don't be a fool and assume it can never be. But most of the time it's not. Most of the time the idea that doing nothing is good is a lie designed to justify our laziness.

@@michigandersea3485Agreed. It is NEVER best to knowingly do the wrong thing--that's just foolish, regardless who presumably said otherwise.

@@SuperFatAlbert yea nobody thinks that dude

I see it as being assertive - if we are talking about a business environment. Combat- or conflict-related would definitely be more aptly described as aggressive. Ultimately they’re just labels we are using.

Just cause you don't know the dictionary meaning of basic words doesn't mean we all have that problem 😂

dudes got Terence Fletcher as his teacher

Well, there's something to be said for that. I can't totally oppose that, but also it might make sensitive people miserable. Sometimes people are whiners, and sometimes they actually are fucked up by mean teachers. Sometimes the end doesn't justify the means. We're not talking about fighting a war or supporting a family here, just a silly little high school band. Hope he didn't turn anyone off music.

Plus the real strength is not in being a disciplinarian to those below you, or in putting up with such an authority figure. It's in being a disciplinarian to YOURSELF. Jocko is always the first to say that it's important to get people on board who you are commanding.

@@michigandersea3485 I promise you that the leaders that made Jacko into a Seal took the same tact as my band teacher. The people that were 'turned off' by it only saved themselves years of futile 'trying'.

Good for you. You got aggressive and sought the information.

sharks most certainly do sleep- in a shark-way.

sharks are also dumb af and have small brains

Yes they do, its just rare. They normally find a type of underwater cave with a decent current running thru it This allows them to remain stationary and sleep inside the cave. The current carries the water thru their gills so they don't die as they sleep.

sharks sleep, but they don't stop moving...

Bro, everyone who replied to this comment missed the entire point of it lol

I control myself all the time. it’s not easy but I’m not eating prison food the rest of my life. and why does everyone who’s a fan of Jocko a friend of urs my dude? yeah he has his good points but not in every way . and yeah I will insult stupid people because they insult my intelligence. and plus I’m different so people who r assholes often mess up thinking I’m going to be all friendly and nice if they try to harass me. nah they’ll get a broken jaw if they don’t shut up ....or at least punked out because they obviously r trying to fight or bully me . I’m friendly and nice and very generous but people shouldn’t take advantage of those types of people. I wasn’t raised to be a jerk . how does that make me not a man? plus I could kill them if I want to so that is controlling it.

any Jocko fan “ Jesus ....I’m not going to sugar coat how that doesn’t make sense. plenty of people on his channel r my mortal enemies. I’m a gay guy and they’re the type on “ freedom of speech “= I can abuse my freedom because I don’t value it and no one will get mean . how unrealistic is that ? very unrealistic and narcissistic perception that could result in them getting man handled and worse . it takes a way bigger man or women to mind their own business and watch their mouths. because there’s men like me and way worse .

a Vice President who’s a known homophobe and I’m supposed to be cool? after seeing a friend get very messed up from an abusive homophobic family? 😂😂😂😂 his stepdad knows not to be seen by me . and he’s lucky there’s “ government help” because he’d be a mangled corpse if I had it my way. how u like that? don’t ever tell me how to be a man. get it bro? cool.

“ don’t punch in a street fight” is definitely going to get people hurt . for one thing even when ur in a stance ball ur fists up . why? because when the other person starts throwing and ur hands r open or u try palm striking they can catch ur fingers and jam them or break them . how effective will the Jui Jitsu be with broken fingers ? they say “ break ur hands” and it’s ironic. how many cops do u think really got into street fights? they got badges guns tazers and back up . so that hurts their credibility even tho there’s exceptions. ball ur fists up but stay loose and practice staying loose when drilling or sparring. and also be able to perry ( to me perrying is striking and and offensive and defensive move) open handed but recover it back into a balled up fist . u know what “ recovering a punch “ is? if u do u get what I mean . or even use elbows to perry if ur to far out of range to land them on the head . I’m not trying to argue but that’s a fallacy. Jocko doesn’t get bullied but people do try me especially if I’m out with my dates or the way I look .

Very true, I don’t think people realise the opposite to aggression is depression

Aggressiveness is more useful than fear or depression

I'm glad you caught on, good luck out there.

I couldn't agree more. As a government employee, right now allocated to the German health department to lead a larger team of (mostly) volunteers in aiding our health system in Germany during this crisis, being aggressive made my job a lot easier. But not just my job, its also a "confident-boost" for my team members to act more confident and aggressive, when they have to deal with strokes of fate being to told to them on the phone every day, rude people, people threatening them, people that don't obey to orders given, etc. Boosts the morale and makes things more effective. They know what I expect of them, they know they will eventually make mistakes and they know, that I have their backs when it happens. Stay healty!

@@joshuairwin1427 not coincidence, just basic. Making a decision is better than sitting around making no decision whatsoever, no shit. I don't know anyone that doesn't make any decisions, just the wtong ones.

Yes. People will happily take your time and energy if you’re happy to give it. It’s mostly ok if they give time and energy back. But we all tend to think that the happy giving person will always be happy doing that. It’s our human nature to take people for granted and not think about what they’re giving up or not getting.

Good story

As a student I would say that teachers that have deep knowledge of what they teach and manage to pass that knowledge in ways students can relate to get respect from the majority. as for the minority that doesn't comply- you gotta be dead cold and not tolerate them. Kick them out, don't tolerate them. it's not about "grounding" then- that makes them even hard headed, you wanna show them that you really won't tolerate anything that comes in the way of teaching the students that genuinely want to learn
