Powerful Insights From Jocko Willink:
"I think right now, what we need is someone that's less polarizing and has a more open mind and is more concerned about, or looking more to find solutions and compromise and figure out how to make things work, rather than, hey, here's what the party that put me in this position wants to have happen. And…what that results in is oftentimes nothing happening."
“Come up with a flexible plan and you start to move in that direction and then you iterate and make changes to the plan as you get closer. But you're still sticking within the principles that you believe and still going towards the end state that you're trying to reach. That's what a leader should be doing and that's what leaders should be doing."
"They can suppress, they can suppress the instinct for freedom that human beings have for a certain period of time. But I don't believe that they can actually extinguish the flame of freedom."
"I'm going to make small decisions, and I'm going to continually assess, and that's what I'm doing all the time. And that's what a good leader does is look and make small adjustments and pay attention to the feedback."

I think this video convinced me that we need Jocko to be our president 😂
Thanks for the content Tom/anyone helping manage this show!
If Jocko ran for President youd treat him like Trump 1000%. You have Zero clue how blind you are to what is going on. You worship politicians that dont even claim US/America anymore. They are soooo blind they cant even see their Party is claiming a new country while destroying this one. They are pushing businesses out of NY and California for their trillion dollar companies(black rock, vanguard ect) to buy the real estate cheap. They have warehouses Full of replacement workers they pay and protect. Are they gonna vote out of the US and pull China in? In turn it will cripple the US?

The best leaders often do not want to be in high positions of authority, like this guy here
In every field too not only military and politics, same for blue collar and retail
By most first hand accounts he wasn’t a good leader u might wanna dig a lil deeper on ole joke o
He is supposed to be the step back and asses guy...but when talking about Gaza, he never mentions the lockdown by Israel that made them dig tunnels in the first place, or the illegal settlements being built in the occupied territory. Not the sign of a good just leader.
If you go back to the 80s on Oprah (back when she use to love him) and many othe shows like Larry King... Trump said the same thing.
He never wanted to run. His exact words were if it got bad enough... Now look what we have. He could definitely speak to people in better phasing but the end is still the same. I will take mean tweets and a better American than this absolute disastrous administration running the country right now.
@@MarvelousMaterial but he has been outspoken about his disagreement with the way the occupiers have been indiscriminately bombing Gaza.

Today, everything is about emotions. Reason and rationality have left the building.
unfortunately same goes for the thumbnails.
Don’t forget a fat payday
Emotion can get the strong minded defeated. Emotion opens a weakly fortified door and allows a dominate force to take over control fully. Rational determination recognizes the weakness immediately and either fortifies the weak door or abandons it as a lost cause. Sometimes it's better to count the losses as lessons to NEVER repeat again. If you can not realize the difference, then you have a weak spot that you need to strengthen, or you had better find a different route, to find success and full strength.
There is no room to sympathize with someone else's emotional discord, as that weakens your own resolve. Pandering to someone else's weak emotions, when they don't completely want to change, only brings you down to their weak level. It is better to turn your back to them and walk out. AND that could apply to family too. So suck it up and get your own house in order and keep it that way.

The fact that I can visibly see you Tom becoming humbled from Jacko's responses deserves a like. Thank you, sir, for listening. Many people need to hear and understand what this man is saying because when we stray too far from sensical reasoning, there will be no future. This man is among the echelon of defending humanity from itself. Thumbs up to you for having him on your show.

Impressive! Not heard this guy, Jocko talk before, not while paying such close attention. Tom's interview skills are well thought out, and the impact made on me required his individual communication skills as much as his interviewee's participation. To get through my far too often biased & one-sided mindless tendencies to pick a side was quite remarkable.
There weren't any sides presented to choose from. Raw honesty is what I found here. Overall, this was exactly what I needed to hear. Why I clicked on this interview I have no idea, and I've no intention of dissecting it to discover why.
I'm just so grateful that I gave this not only a chance but ended up playing this 3 times from start to finish.
Tom, you've earned yourself a new subscriber. I'm keen to hear & learn more. I've your whole back catalogue to sieve through which I'm looking forward to. So much content I've passed on so many times. But it took hearing this particular conversation which has helped me to get to this moment, this pivotal point in my understanding of what was otherwise so over complex. Very simple in both method and presentation and has left me without the necessity to dissect. And I'm in the UK, but that remains irrelevant.
Endless appreciation and gratitude to you both.
You did a great job keeping Jocko engaged and excited. This was a really well done show
interview yourself or ask the guest a question without your philosophy proceeding every question. Just a thought as a viewer
For real! Talk less listen more
Agree. I hope he sees this comment. Unless the topic is really interesting I don’t click. Jocko is worth going through his unwelcome , lengthy philosophies.
If I interview myself I always win and I already know the answers to my questions.

Talking about what we have in common often opens incredible doors!
Jocko Willink is such a crystal clear, meaningful, and persuasive thinker and leader. The art is in his balanced approach and capability to see all sides of an issue, speak humbly, identity his bias, and then tell the truth. So needed in our day; so refreshing.
You're an Exceptional MAN Jocko. We can all learn so much from you're great strength, honorable humility. Thank you for your service and your VOICE. Enjoy your family. God Bless America in spite of itself
Its amazing how old Jocko seems from his start on the Tim Ferriss Podcast and still im 100% sure this MF will kick my ass any day of the week, what a unit.

Ive been listening to his podcast since around 2017. He is someone deserving of trust for various reasons. If you ask urself if u would put your personal things in his hands, for any variable hypothetical scenario, like business,family security, moral quarrels, whatever. If the answer is mostly yes, its a good indication that this man is a good choice to have by your side or in front of you. We should hold leaders to this standard. [ not native english speaker ]
Thank you to everyone involved in making this podcast. I learned new ways of thinking and working. ❤
I will begin application today.
I appreciate Jocko’s optimism but regarding the plight of young men it’s hard to see how his perspective isn’t distorted by an obvious selection effect: The holes in his fishing net are an inch in diameter so he’s not gonna catch anything 1+ n inches wide. Maybe if he ran a nationwide network of gyms he’d have some real numbers to lay out.
Shhh stay away from my master plan
People like Jocko because he's perceived as a honest man. He has balls and people trust him.
Class, strength, and intellect. Integrity. 'Nuff said.
Ohh boy.. Obviously, you are ill informed. Jocko is no hero.. As a matter of fact, he's a coward who rarely went out with his team.. Task force/unit bruiser is undoubtedly the most unethical, most counter minded group in Ramadi during 2005. Marines have noted and reinforced Lief Babins complete disrespect towards them, causing more harm and damage then rebuild and rapore. It's been clearly stated that Jocko is a joke in the community. Peeling the gold from the trident. You see a facade. This is a man who let Chris Kyle loose. He allowed innocent lives to parish. Unnecessary and unethical was SOP for TFB. You need to learn about someone before you glorify them.. Ill point you in the direction. Look up Eric Deming..
There's no reality involved in many people's perspective unfortunately.
@@rsbmg Read the Marine XO letter.
Read Code over Country.
All you really need to know about this stuff. I've met Jocko. He really did seem like a squared away dude, but man, it's hard not to believe Eric.
Eric Deming spent 27 in the military. 7 years in the Navy and 20 in the team. His credibility is high. He wouldn't make this public without multiple confirmed sources.. It wouldn't make sense to damn a SEAL without probable cause... Just look how much $ Luttrell and Jocko have now... Based on lies.. Obviously I think military should be compensated to the highest standard, but not like this. In your heart, if you saw innocent deaths, then the same person talks about how badass he, you'd wanna see heads roll to.
@rsbmg
Code over Country
Marine XO letter (2005) Ramadi.
Go read these. All you need to know.
Both are very credible, having multiple sources confirm individual parts of the the events cultivating in the publicity and credibility in both writings above. Jocko just needs to address this. If it's not true, defend yourself. Staying silent on this situation only points to guilt.
Stay out of politics. It would kill me to see people tear the man down.
Thank you, Tom and Mr.Jocko, for all your knowledge. I Love America for all it is, based on my experience.
Tom this interview was amazing...I felt like u were approaching this differently....I likes
Some of the best leaders don't want to lead but do so out of obligation. Jocko is that man.
We need a bunch of guys like Jocko in leadership positions !
Do we? There are thousands of ex military who have seen his leadership and would strongly disagree. People who have lived with the consequences of his choices
Clone him. I mean…CLONE HIM NOW! 🫡

This whole line displays a fundamental lack of understanding about the fundamental dynamics of how politics work in the world we inhabit.. & the chasm between some school house rock notion of how our "Democratic Republic" is supposed to function / what was taught in Civics class.. Vs. the stark reality of how our largely unelected oligarchy works in reality... I mean no disrespect.. & I like Jocko as well .. but we can't afford to be this naive.. I do not think encouraging celebrity influencers / personalities like Jocko to run for office would be ultimately effective.. & I think he is smart enough to know this.
Brash means ...Rude noisy cocky & arrogant. Your description of Trump's character is right.
Jocko you not wanting to be President is exactly why you should be President. By the way I watched your Master Class on Leadership with my 5 and 7 year olds kids and it was awesome.

Not sure Trump listens to anyone. Unless of course they are telling him what he wants to hear.
@@dg1019 trump doesn't listen to ignorant questions, specifically from the bias news that try to paint a picture of him.
Every time I hear an ex-military talks about "Freedom", I say sure, it is one of the things, but show me which war was so much of a threat to the US' freedom that it was justify. I'd say ONE war: WWII. That's it. As a immigrant who came from a country where freedom was never a problem, I'd say this is NOT what "makes America Great". Every single western country has freedom, that is not the exceptional part. From an immigrant perspective, OPPORTUNITY is what make America exceptional. I could have never achieved what I achieved in the country of my origin.
Explain how Hitler taking over Europe was a threat to American freedom.
But that opportunity may well have not still been there had we not proven that we could exercise power around the world. Being the hegemon is always going to force you to express power to keep others from flaring up. The type of structures some of those others would impose don't hold opportunity as a primary goal.
I think you miss the point that you don't know how bad things could be had we not shown that we not only could but would use force to protect our interests and way of life.
Explain how Hitler taking over Europe was a threat to American freedom.
@@scotttaylor9133 Lots of our initiated military actions in the world, creates more resentment toward the US. Not only the US is the world's economic hegemony through controlling the US dollar, but also the miliary hegemony. That comes with a lot of responsibly. As I said, I could not any full-fledged war initiated by the US as a necessary war. Even the Afghanistan war, was way overreaction. I would argue, that lots of local and regional conflicts that required US involvement, could have been better dealt with, in small operation.
It’s our freedom that creates and allows for opportunity… they go hand in hand❤

Nice to hear logic, humility, strength and realistic.
great insight. This channel challenges my views and beliefs on myself and humanity as a collective
Jocko thanks for your service. Being in the military gives a young man discipline. I love how sensible, straight forward logical, insightful & intelligent you are. You'd make a great positive contribution to our broken government. You certainly are qualified & upstanding with your good values, morals. Your conflict- resolution & communication skills are truly amazing!!! Keep speaking your hopeful encouraging dialogue to Americans. You make a difference...thank you. God bless

I LOVE Jocko's interviews with military veterans and authors, on his show. I think they're absolutely stellar and he dives deep into their books. They're legit amazing. BUT, on everything else ( including business and politics ) he just sounds like an average middle school teacher talking about a topic to kids. I don't think he ever says a single thing that's novel to anyone listening. It's like he speaks a lot and never says anything...
yeah, he is like Mission Impossible movies´, you really do not need to see them to know the ending, and if you do see them is just a lot of fluff that goes in one way and soon after out the other and really did not add anything to life or anyone in general at all... Even Tom Cruise would be a more interesting candidate than this war-monger!
Aint no surf in DC Jocko! Good to see Jockco on the Pod.
Thank you for this discussion. Perfect timing. In particular, I loved the whole George Washington and Galadriel section.
What I truly don't understand is why people are STILL putting faith into our current politicians, as if they will eventually do the right thing.
Furthermore, I always hear these people with large followings and who maybe have the ability to get elected say "well that's not what I want to do, I don't want to be a politician", when at the same time, these are the people that are level headed and honest.
When are u people going to realize, THESE ARE THE TYPES OF PEOPLE WE NEED TO GET ELECTED!
If you don't want to be a politician, GREAT! Run and get elected and then leave after you've done your part.
How bad did this country have to get before people with the right minds finally step up and do something??
Why are you complaining about everyone else like they need to go become a politician? They have the freedom to do what they want twith their lives. If you want politics changed, rather than crying to some imaginary daddy, go do it yourself.
Because they say it doesn't mean that they will do it. Some people are crafty on how they come across to other people in order to gain whatever it is that they may be for their own selfish interest.
Just cause you say it doesn't mean it's your real intent
Well history suggests at has to get very very bad, neigh catastrophic before that happens. And usually there's a big fight to assert power first.
Civil War requires two opposing sides at a minimum fighting each other. Civil War is impossible in this country because only one side is willing to fight, and it is not the right.
Civil War, the movie by A24, is releasing this weekend in theaters. Should be interesting.
thank you capitan obvious-
Civil war only requires one side willing to do violence. There is only one side that threatens political violence and it is those on the right. Trump is the only one threatening political violence. His followers are the only ones that were willing to betray the country by attacking the capitol building on January 6, 2021. There had not been violence like that since the War of 1812 against the British. Let us hope that cooler heads prevail this time and the right does not listen to Trump’s incitement to violence.
Valid point, but that was also the situation right up to the start of the Spanish Civil War, where the right didn't want a fight until it became obvious that they had no choice. Time will tell whether the American right dies by a thousand concessions/retreats or a conflict ultimately erupts.

Great podcast!
On healthcare 12:05 nobody says "we should have it for free versus we should get top dollar". That's a piss poor way of framing the issue, actually.
The Rod Of Asclepius
Niether one of those sides has a plan on how to do it either. They have sound bites to gather voters and that is all.
How would you frame the two sides of the debate?
@@ForgingFreedomTV Cool name! And thanks for asking...
In short, there's no such thing as free healthcare (anywhere), there's only levels of subsidization coupled with varying qualities of management.
On that side of the debate, they think that under a "single payer" system, regardless of quality, healthcare is better spread between "haves and have-nots".
On the other hand, there's also no "free market" in healthcare ( anywhere ) but people on this side of the debate want more market directed pricing. To them, healthcare is a good, and all goods are subject to economic laws.
They think that, not only does healthcare pricing come down on it's own with less bureaucratic price regulation, but money is directed where consumers want it most.
I think I tried to frame both sides fairly. I admit it's easier to say it the dumb way.
whats so wrong with free health care it is happening in many other countries ...it is a human right is it not especially for the "greatest" country in the world
Tom missed the chapter on thr Banality of violence. I get it - difficult to fathom - but there are 1000 cuts daily
Jocko is the most strategist in speech that you want in wars.
Jockos hypothetical conversations between two conflicting personalities always work out so well with the level of rationality he injects into them.
So much wisdom placed in this 3 hour episode.
Minerva

50:00 that is what UA got, gradually gaining that sense of freedom and now those who showed them it is possible are turning their backs on them.
That is the most controversy that I see from USA, spreading the word of freedom and then on other hand turning their backs.
Should do more podcasts with people like lieutenant jocko willink. Amazing training.
Great pod
Minute 35. That example of working together, I recall the open door meeting trump had with Shumer and Pelosi about the wall. Jacks is a bit naive about our politics. Does he not think Trump has had those compromising conversations in business? Our government is not run like a business.
Maybe, but then Trump turns around and tries to burn it all down.
They came after Trump as soon as he announced that he's running and continued till this day, they have thrown everything at him simply because he is there to clean up the mess. Trump says a lot of unexpected and sometimes harsh things but even if I don't agree with it I still respect it more than telling me what I want to hear but doing just the opposite.
The other big elephant in the world room is a certain section of a certain tribe. I'd love to ask Jocko about that!
Whenever I see Jacko I instantly start hearing Guiles theme in my head.
Never in my life did I hear anyone make more sense!

Fantastic point about people complaining about what they don’t have while other people in other places around the world have even less. Sadhguru once said “when people talk about making it day to day, what does that actually mean? To some it’s making $100 million a day while others see it as getting their hands on enough food to be able to eat twice a day.”.
Another great episode
As smart as he is on many topics, he completely lost the plot when he started talking about Ukraine. He keeps thinking that the right strategy is asymmetric insurgency, ignoring what will happen to the civilian population if the front collapses to draw the Russians in and fight an insurgency. There will be a massacre on a level not seen since the Holocaust.
Also, Russia doesn't have infinite resources either. It's not the Soviet Union. A 10:1 loss ratio would absolutely crush them. They're almost out of armor already and the main thing they have is artillery and aviation. The reason they've been able to advance a few km this year is because there is massive shortage of 155mm shells. It's that simple.
He's so out of touch with the realities of this war that he keeps looking at everything through the prism of his own outdated experience. This war is nothing like the war he fought. It is shattering paradigms daily. For starters, it has finally rendered the tank obsolete. When a $2K drone takes out a $2M tank, the asymmetry is already there.
27:25 paradoxically the louder we talk at people, the less they hear.
Some learn better while being yelled at lol
So so good! FREEDOM

Amen to that! 👍👍👍
You would probaby enjoy Cardano and everything it stands for.
That being said, I'd love to see Charles Hoskinson on the show.
Don't think he's into memecoins
Yeah yeah yeah Go Jocko! You were made and shaped for this time😊😊😊😊
Another great one
A culture without shared beliefs is doomed.
Omg best episode! WOW🎉🎉🎉
I don't say this often but I could follow Jocko.
Unfortunately, everything he said was either extremely vague or idealized platitudes. Very respectable guy, but his ideas are shallow in this interaction.
How do you deal with FJB and people in the Administrative State / judges / politicians / certain ideological groups (delusional or evil authoritarians) who want to take away your rights, property, and freedom?
You're not as smart as you think you are.
@michaelwaldmeier1601 Don't lose sight of who you are. There is good and evil. Evil has no human allegiance, just useful puppets and ideas. Align yourself towards what is good and realize that the battle has already been won. The shadows have already been punished they just haven't realized it yet.
I felt the same way! I thought I was the only one! Jocko what is your actual stance on the border, endless wars, FJB, DOE, Woke agenda, China/foreign policy. By being vague you are basically protecting your brand. Trying to please the masses doesn’t work. Very vague responses. Presidents are just puppets for the families that run this current 💩 show
Corruption in Politics is our biggest issue. 1/3 of the country is insane and 2/3 needs to unite. We aren’t red or blue we are Americans
That’s on purpose but a correct surface level interpretation.
I am never impressed by guys like Jocko whose job is to do what they are told and not ask questions. His understanding of war is incredibly narrow because of this.
Top 5 stupidest comments I have ever seen. Congratulations
I totally understand where you're coming from, but I'd give the guys more credit than that. Not asking questions doesn't mean soldiers don't see whats going on, or don't still wonder how or why they're being told to do certain things.
Aa soldier is like an employee in a company.
You may question your manager/ceo's business strategy yourself, but at the end of the day, you're being paid to perform your job, so you wouldn't necessarily call one out or demand an explanation, because you aren't owed one if its not applicable to your job.
If anything, I think Jocko and most soldiers have the best perspective. Just because they're not constantly challenging their leaders authority doesn't mean they don't still see whats going on. It just means they understand they have a job to do, and if they want to question their commanders, they can do it off mission.
America didn't get to where it is now because the soldiers don't question their commanders, far from it. It got this way because the majority of the civilian population don't question anything, and blindly follow those in charge. Soldiers/veterans are actually some of the most vocal.
Agree. War is a racket.
You don't understand his job. That's ok. It's covert so you wouldn't. None of us do. It's not as simplistic as doing what one is told.
You can sit with the rest of the women while us men protect our freedom
Always good. Thanks
@18:20 Such good points especially the bully part
There is no negotiation or solutions talking with Russia about quitting the war.
This is the problem with the US - hypocrisy. The US was willing to go to nuclear war because it didn't want Russian forces in the sovereign country of Cuba in 1962. Well Russia has the same objection in Ukraine - completely fair. To add to that Ukraine has a massive Russian population. Since the war started in 2014 Ukraine slaughtered over 10,000 Russian civilians yet the US thinks Russia should just sit back? The US in comparison only lost 3,000 civilians on 9/11 and then went to war destroying the middle east.
@@MS-wz9jm We have a huge population of Mexican citizens living in the United States of America. We don’t let Mexico come and attack us. Russia has normal relations with Mexico yet we are not taking over Mexico either because they doing business with Russia. Your argument is laughable and lies. Russia killed millions of Ukrainians and sent them all over to Siberia and put Russians in eastern Ukraine. Eastern Ukraine is UKRAINE. IT HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED ALONG WITH CRIMEA AS UKRAINE SINCE THE USSR EVAPORATED INTO RUIN BECAUSE $$$ problems with corrupt government. Now stop your propaganda and lies. It’s obvious you are trying to send a BS message to sway people against Ukraine. 🤣. Why not just fix the plumbing and install utilities in the rest of the country and stop stealing toilets from your neighbors.
Hallelujah!!!!

So I've cleaned up what I'm eating. I've gotten my meals down to a meat with mixed vegetables and then potatoes for a starch, or a bowl of plain oatmeal, mixed berries, and plain yogurt. Very minimal sugar. I had to because I had ruined my gut.
I'm afraid to get into shape. I used to love pushing my limits back when it was my parents feeding me, but now my biggest struggle is keeping myself fed. I am so tired of how often I need to prepare and eat food. I'm afraid that if I try to get into shape my body will start to demand even more food from me, and I'm already at my limit. It is such a struggle.
Very good perspective!
While I agree with him on the majority of the things he is talking about, there a few that the is straight up wrong about. Like "America protects freedom" bit, for example. America does not protect freedom outside of America, quite the opposite actually. Those kids in other countries that don't have beds and bedrooms that he is talking about, those are often the countries that America invaded and destroyed for their natural resources, or because "America" didn't like their socio-economic structure, and they urgently needed some "democracy" brought to those countries. If someone is critical of the USA Today, it's usually because of the US foreign policies, including all the covert operations and regime change operations that America always finds itself involved in. We cannot sit here and discuss how great America is, while the US government is stealing close 70,000 barrels of oil a day in Syria (which is 80% of their daily oil production), or while our government funds the genocide in GAZA...
Well said,, thanks to you for speaking up for humanity
A preacher of self discipline , personal responsibility , hard work, being on time, decentralized command, Jocko would be opposed by the establishment and ridiculed and attacked as a white privileged heterosexual male
This goes to shows that Americans in the military or media are either ignorant or deliberately trying to act dumb...
Well said. America protects its interests. Economic interests. The end. And that's what other nations do, too- to the extent they can.
I like these guys a lot, but there is a certain naiveté about how things really work that underlies this conversation. I don't know if they're trying to walk a line but as much as they say they don't want to get into politics, at times, they sound like politicians, especially Jocko.
I'll give an example too: if you look at early videos of Trump after he won the election, he actually did try to take a more conciliatory tone until Comey showed up at Trump Tower with the debunked Steele Dossier. Trump knew it was a pathetic attempt to blackmail him that he saw thru. Surprisingly, there is a PBS Frontline that documents the moment Trump realized he would have anything but a normal presidency. I'll see if I can find the link.
