Jocko made me realize I didnt deserve a bed or house. I sleep on the concrete naked everynight fighting off the rats and occasionally eating one whole.
@@MSRobersonUSA That's some Darth Vader Star Wars shit 😂, his suit was itchy and always at least slightly uncomfortable to down right painful to him in some situations to make him stay enraged and completely pulling from the darkness to wield as much power as possible so he wouldn't be able to turn back to the light
It was good to see Jocko smiling and laughing and then change into serious mode. If you always have it easy and comfortable you aren’t giving yourself a chance to grow or improve.
Jocko is right. Somethings aren't going to go to plan. Some situations may go sideways. It's how you handle them that shows your true strength & character.
The confidence you feel after you beat harsh inconvenient situations is incomparable. Better than any hardcore gym session. You feel like u can do anything
COLD SHOWERS ONLY!!! He wasnt joking lol. Up at 430am every day. Even on chemotherapy days. My body wants to go to war with itself, lets do it!! 💪🏼 Your My Hero Jocko
Amen 🙏🏼 Count it all JOY when you face many trials & tribulations. For its producing PATIENCE. And patience produces good CHARACTER. And good character leads to good HOPE.
I cannot even begin to explain how big of a difference it made in my life when I realized and embraced this mindset. Something sucks? Try to embrace it and enjoy it, at least once in a while. It won't hurt you in a long run. It will make you stronger.
You gotta embrace the suck, you will totally useless until you do. Make peace with the shitty situation and turn it into something less shitty by making good decisions. This applies not only to the military, but life as well.
Reminds me of an old Pvt. Murphy cartoon It's cold and rainy... Infantry sitting in a muddy foxhole: "This sucks." Ranger crawling through the mud: "I like the way this sucks." Green Beret eating a snake while up to his chest in mud: "I wish this would suck more!" Pilot looking down from his helicopter: "It sure sucks down there." Air force sitting in the barracks with static on the TV: "no satellite?! This sucks!" I had that cartoon pinned up in my room while deployed... made me feel a little better about being hot and dry all the time. 🤣🤣
Jocko is one of the hardest coldest people on earth when it comes to doing his job but when it comes to speaking and sharing his story you can feel the heart and soul he gave the military
As a former marine in Iraq as long as you address your Sargent or of higher rank as long as you start your question with sir and end it with sir you'll survive a screaming in the face 🪖🇺🇸
@@argosbrave6415 I can tell you've never encountered "the suck". You're not lying to yourself saying there is no suck. You're trying to lie to yourself by telling yourself the suck is awesome and you are enjoying it. Hence " embracing the suck".
@@adamprice8382 so much presumption, lol. Let’s use a simple example, cold exposure. No one that does it says it doesn’t suck, or keeps doing it because it’s fun. They do it because it prepares them for stress in the future. I’d recommend Andrew Huberman’s podcast on the topic if you still don’t get it. Have a good night friend!
@@argosbrave6415 oh I understand the principle behind it. I'm just speaking from my own experience. Short term stuff like ice bathing is easy. It's the living in a COP made of sand bags and Hesco barriers ,getting pounded by incoming, freezing your ass off every night on watch and just the constant wearing of morale and physical condition that makes it hard to embrace the suck.
Jocko is one of my top 3 hero/role models!! EMBRACE THE SUCK is something I try my best to achieve everyday and a way I try and live my life!!! Dude has been through Hell and back as a SEAL and in his personal life and he still has the most positive attitude ever!!
“Embrace the suck” and “get comfortable being uncomfortable”. Heard those lines so many times that even 15 years down the road, I still hear them in my head.
When I was in the service (army engineers) they told us "Learn to love the lump!" Meaning, when we were tired and overworked and faced with more hard labor. Lump that shit and love it! Persevere! Walk right over it! ❤️ Jocko!
My grandaddy, who served in Vietnam as a tunnel rat, had a little saying. If it's not fighting you, your doing something wrong. Kind of like his version of "embrace the suck".
I was listening to Jacobs podcast about the diary of a Korean war vet and it reminded me of Lloyd Klein my grandfather who served honorably in the Korean conflict with a purple heart
I realized, nothing in my marine corps career would ever come close to how much the transition sucked. Getting medically separated, being physically disabled, legs, hips torn, back fucked up, nerves messed up, shoulders and chest messed up, homeless for a bit, fighting the VA for some health care.....that, that sucks. I've been in physical rehabilitation for the last 5 fucking years. I gave up my prime years, my late teens and early 20s, just to come back, and be on bed rest and rehab. What a waste of my youth. And as it stands, my physical injuries won't ever recover. It's been years. I look back at my years of service and think, shit back then was elementary school compared to this. Embrace the suck, I did, and life now is 100Xs worse. I know truly know what suck is. And it sure as hell wasn't my rime in the marines. It's the time after.
Nah man. Believe it or not, the guys who are signing up now want exactly what he is talking about because nothing is hard anymore. Out in the field, I see young guys with smiles on their faces while it is raining and cold because they are in the shit, the switch flips and they realize that they are taking it like professionals. And they are getting exactly what they asked for.
Oh no people sign up still. The shit you have to go through in the military is what we want because it makes us better. Idk why you have this mentality if softness and that the military should be a little summer camp with paintball guns. Dont worry theres plenty of people who can composate for your weakness
@@julietmike1018 You dont see people smiling when they get recalled and get smoked on a Sunday morning because of some dude in the other battalion gets a DUI and its somehow your fault
Yes. Struggle, endure, contend. That is the way of those who go against opposition. An enemy that is never ending and always seeking to gain an advantage over you. Never let into despair or discouragement. Never fall to fear or disappointment. Only let your, mind, body, soul, will, heart, and drive move you into your path of purpose and overcome what is out to get you
The American warrior culture values its history. Our brothers, fathers, grandfathers and forefathers sweat,bled and cried... So shall we. And do it knowing we are carrying the burden but in our time. Much love and respect to our warriors out there today ready for what comes next.🇺🇲💪
I know for a fact, any 11B unit has slept in worse conditions for longer than any SEAL. The army was crushing 15-18 month deployments when the SEALs were doing 90-120 days. Not detracting from their level at all but stay in your lane.
That’s what you wanna make your claim to fame? Sleeping in “crappy conditions”? Half the enemies we fight had it worse than you ever could but more often than not infantrymen don’t respect the enemies fortitude. Kinda hard to pretend you’re tough when the majority of 11B are lucky to get a CIB for shooting at a hill till arty finishes the job. It’s easy to pretend you’re some badass when the government teaches you that fuck fuck games make you a warrior only to find out no amount of petty BS will actually prepare you for when some goat herder paints the wall with your buddies head. Believe it or not you have plenty of men who try to enjoy life and don’t make things unnecessarily difficult like some 18 year old who thinks glorified camping turned them into Rambo. Maybe we should spend more time trying to get the job done and treating our fellow men with respect as adults instead of using your MOS as a dick measuring contest.
Embrace the suck. It’s the best way to becoming a versatile soldier. You’ll always have the attitude that says in a bad situation that it can always be worse and you can push through it.
He's absolutely right. Those hard as nails Marines and Soldiers at the Chosin Reservoir endured Hell on earth. In my mind, I will never be cold. Those guys actually were freezing, fighting the Chinese and made it.
Dude everything it's raining or snowing I grab my 150. Lb. Go bags and run in a t-shirt or light long sleeve for the sole purpose of it sucking. Usually 6 or 8 miles jamming with my blue tooth. It's all hills where I live

Infantry sitting in a muddy foxhole: "This sucks."
Ranger crawling through the mud: "I like the way this sucks."

Pilot looking down from his helicopter: "It sure sucks down there."

That's hilarious, ive never seen that but now I'm gonna have to look for one
You gave me some great ideas...Im an artist....Great stuff.
I can confirm that no satellite TV sucks.

Jocko as an LT "It's sucks, but think of Chosin."
My response "Chesty's Marines could put their hands in their pockets"
Remember when we all just covered our face because someone that lied told us to?
Yep.
And anyone who fought against the lies was branded a traitor? Even after they themselves admitted they were wrong?
He is inspirational. Definitely nice to have him on our side!
Jocko made me realise that water after a workout was making me weak, now I drink sand after every workout....Litter box sand.
