The whole interview is so intense!
We can definitely learn much about discipline from Jocko. He walks the walk and talks the talk.
The video is almost impossible to watch. The lag is so bad it screws up synch with audio.
Very intresting interview.No doubt, Jacko Willing belives in what he’s doing,but check on youtube what ABSOLUTE LEGEND-George Carlin sad about war and what exaktly is a purpuse of it…..so true…On the other hand there is something about this gay that absolutely fascinates me….

hi , thanks , watching from Paris .This talk live me speechless .
Excellent interview! Jocko is a true leader. No BS and authentic. World needs leaders like him.
Great interview. But one moment just freezed me. When he said “it would’t be hard” just immediately, then he quickly took that back. Its obvious he would drop the bomb. But he wouldnt say it loud. Im sure he would take that risk and even admit it was he’s idea after all…
What point are you making exactly? Can you clarify?
I guess the most positive thing I took away from this interview was the idea of using the force of your will to make things happen, rather than attempting to plan it. My own thoughts: When I was a kid, and I was really into something, did I plan my approach to it, or did I just dive in? The latter, definitely. Now that doesn’t mean I didn’t set GOALS for myself. I did. But consuming fascination with something is the surest road to mastery.
I completely agree.
Initial thoughts, Jocko likes war.

You obviously didn’t watch past 1:20:00
Mixing Iraqi troops with SEALs in the worst battle zones was a STUPID idea. The Iraqis should have been trained up at first and only better units mixed with SEALs. I wonder if the SEALs that got killed or hurt did so because of the upper command making this decision to create this lethal mix of forces. Yes, I understand that the long term goal was to get Iraqis to take on their own security, but this was a bad idea – smells like one of Obama`s, although he was not in charge at that time probably.
Take notes gents. This is what a real man looks like. The lines are all too blurred these days in this ultra progressive liberal, emasculated, poly-gendered, politically correct, bullshit western world we’re living in. Take hope however, the tide is changing.
Jocko Willink said “Don’t try and be like me, be better than me. Crush me.” That is great advice for the up and coming 🙂
No idea how soldiers operate. In the end of the day they are sent to wage war somebody else started and wage war in some particular way, not necessarily in the most logical way. I cannot understand how can you go die or lose a limb for a war a Bush started
All soldiers have stated that they don’t fight for their governments. They fight and die for the brothers next to them. I don’t know how anyone could support Obama after he gave away what so many Americans died for only to then let ISIS grow.

Bush may may have fucked up by invading Iraq in the first place, but once it was done you just don’t pack up and leave. Obama was warned over and over about that something like an Islamic Caliphate would grow in the vacuum of the absence of U.S. Forces. Even when Obama was briefed over… Read more »
I will watch this at least once a month. Huge value beyond inspiration…Helped me immensely! Any true leader should have a good 10 “Ah Ha” moments or more.
Both enjoyed and learned from the interview
Such an inspiration. Every time I get down at work or frustrated about this or that I think of Jocko & other military heroes that have sacrificed so much for us.
Thank you for this interview. I almost had tears.
Great interview

I learned so much from this interview. I shared thoughts from it several times during the past couple weeks before being able to see the whole thing. What especially caught me is Jocko explaining that war exposed him to so many human emotions in high intensity and speed that it makes it that much easier to read people in a somewhat colder and slower (compared to war) business environment, in the end it’s all about people their mind and emotions that you’re dealing with. One of my favorite interviews.
No one cares what you do get to jocko 10 mins wasted on you
