I listened to this yesterday. This morning, I dragged myself out of bed at 6am. I walked/jogged 5km, for the first time in 2 years. 2 years of mental and physical health issues that I thought were never going to end. I just wanted to say thank you.
-
I love that Steven uses silence so brilliantly which allows his guests the space to reflect more, talk more and share more.
-
"Your excuses will destroy you and take everything that you ever wanted...if you let them" 🔥🔥🔥
-
That amount of emotional intelligence, self awareness, gratitude, humility, respect, logic and appreciation this man displayed in this interview just wow!
-
"Train, study, work, practice, train, study, work, practice, train, study, work, practice, and eventually you will increase your confidence."
-
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.
-
Reminds me of my college experience. Advisor said, "my goal is to make you cry. I want to see if you'll push through when the work world kicks you in the face." 80% dropped out. The world isn't scary to me because of that man.
-
This is incredible. This guy has no ego. What a truly extraordinary human being.
-
This is one of the best 2hrs of life advices/lessons in life
-
Jocko is a national treasure. Anyone humble enough to learn from them will grow and excel.
-
Wow, that ending was so powerful. The silence speaks volume of what Jocko has gone through and continues to carry with him through life. And i think that's one of the most important lessons he tries to teach: life won't be easy, but you have to keep pushing. Not just for your sake and the sake of those you love around you, but for the ones that have sacrificed and fallen who will never get the opportunity to. Truly powerful.
-
"thank you" two words that ment so much. that last bit was powerful
-
Hi Steven, I’m a 64 yr old woman and I started following your YouTube afew weeks back. As I listened to this podcast I cried! This man Jocko Willink told my life story!!! I feel despair and great sadness as I listen because he is speaking the truth about discipline and lack of it. Everything he said was so truthful right to the core of my being!!!! I’m not sure how or what I can change but I’m going to change my life! Thank you for having such a tremendous influence on YouTube 🙏🏽
-
I needed to hear this.. lost my fiance / father of my kids, and two of my best friends back to back In a short amount of time . Loved his humble response on grief . his words were so comforting. “ Remember but dont dwell “
-
This is the only podcast channel i find educational and worth watching.
-
Jesus, I freaking love this guy. I served in the NAVY! and what it would take to literally grow up in the SEAL teams? that is unmistakably one of the most difficult things that a person can do. I can only imagine how great and difficult his life would have been simultaneously. I find it so amazing that he is both steadfast in his strengths and empathetic. Thank you for this conversation Steven.
-
Its hard to think about my childs mother after she passed a couple o' years ago. This man helped me with my perspective on grief.
-
Why did I cry so much at the end when he spoke about his wife taking up the slack. And when he mentioned the brothers he lost. I totally lost it. Thanks for a great episode. 🙏🙏🙏
-
Love Jocko. Says it just like it is. No BS. No political correctness just because he's scared of being cancelled (he's definitely not!). 👍🏼 We need more people like Jocko!
