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.

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 UKposts 🙏🏽

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.

Very importantly because Steven was very honest about how little he know about Jocko’s life and what he might have been through as a seal. Which enabled him ask the seemingly dumb questions which are really the questions most of us would have had in our minds but maybe too shy to ask. Thank you for this episode!

@KaylaJo96 22 дні тому

It's really interesting hearing him speak from this perspective, because he's addressing people who shift blame by making excuses, whereas I'm used to hearing the perspective of people who come from a background of childhood trauma where their default is "Everything is my fault," who have the opposite trajectory in that they have to come to understand that they are not responsible for someone else's mistakes. Watching this it's clear he is able to identify his emotions and patterns (especially when talking about pattern recognition after multiple friends were killed), whereas someone with childhood trauma, specifically emotional neglect, often can't actually identify their emotions, much less notice patterns, without specific, focused work and awareness. I like seeing someone who, according to the beginning of the interview, did NOT face adversity in childhood talk about how he processes these things. I also appreciate so, so much that despite the horrors he saw, he does not put trauma on a hierarchy, but rather respects the subjective nature of the experiences that have a deep effect on people.
