341: Simple Rules To Become A Better Person and Leader.

[@davidahern7705]

We all love Echo, first thing I noticed. I think many of us may see ECho’s growth as similar to our own as we travel the Jacko path of enlightenment. All good stuff 👍

[@hardcorehobbies3809]

The “Ballistic Tone” mindset part made me laugh so hard. Utilizing showmanship to own the most grueling to monotonous situations/tasks. In my fields leading my team with this showmanship then combining a humble ego allows us to accelerate in comparison to our peers 🤘 Thank you for EVERYTHING

I've listen to probably more than one hundred episodes of the podcast, liked most, if not all, of them; loved more a few and found a couple of them truly memorable and keep coming back to it every now and then. This one is already in the last category. Man, did this episode hit home! I can't even explain how I felt connected to what you guys were talking and how it does relate to my life in the moment! I guess the only thing I can and will say is that: I think I'm in the path!!!! Thank you for sharing such immense wisdom freely, Jocko, Dave, Echo and everybody else involved in the process of making this happen!

[@petrairene]

Yeah. Everyone who shouts, "here, me" when a leadership position is in need of filling, one has to be suspicious and ask, why exactly that person wants that position. Yes, sure, there are people who want it because they realistically know they are qualified and want to do it as a service for the greater good. But too many just want it for the money, the fawning adoration of their subjects and the narcissistic gratification of ordering other people around. Currently there are too many of the second type in power all around the world.

Man , fighting to be right for things that don’t matter, blowing leadership capital... I needed to here this in regards to the political conversations. Absolutely relevant

[@claytonreyes1]

Another way thinking of "stop fighting for something you believe is right" is accepting when as a leader, you are wrong. or that your idea is not the best. because that means eating a piece of humble pie. A little bit of Humility by a leader will earn yourself a lot of leadership capital because you are accepting the input of others to get a better understanding of the situation. That way you can make better decisions as a leader.

“Warrens Founding Rules” The pebble in your boot is greater than the mountains in your way. Along the path of urgency are those stuck waist deep in destiny, beyond the muck and mire, where men burn their desires a patient stone resides. There is a stone on top of the mountain that shapes the horizon. Where the feathered eagle struggles to fly this stone simply lies consistent in the heights. Bite stone, break tooth.

I was a Plane Captain in VFA-137. We are well tested to earn that job but it’s not hard to get through it as a knucklehead. Pilots are braver than they know, I’ve seen Plane Captains prep and launch aircraft while still drunk from the night before. Also, a squadron has to MAKE plane captains, it isn’t an mos or rating. Sometimes when manning is low a squadron will look past small failures…but the pilot is still gonna fly

*15 Secret ingredients to magical formula* TIMESTAMPS! 1. Strive to do the small things well. 14:44 2. Be a doer and a self starter. Aggressiveness and initiative are two most admired qualities in a leader, but you also must put up your feet up and think. 27:34 3. Strive for self improvement through constant self evaluation. 34:54 4. Never be satisfied. Ask of any project, “How can it be done better?” 37:59 5. Don’t overinspect or oversupervise. Allow your leaders to learn through mistakes in training so they can profit from their errors and not make them in combat. 40:25 6. Keep the troops informed. Telling them what, how, and why will builds their confidence. 49:25 7. The harder the training, the more the troops will brag. 52:18 8. Enthusiasm, fairness, and moral and physical courage: four of the most important aspects of leadership. 55:58 9. Showmanship: a vital technique of leadership. 1:02:14 10. The ability to speak and write well: two essential tools of leadership. 1:11:35 11. There is a salient difference between profanity and obscenity. The leader employs profanity tempered with discretion, he never uses obscenities. 1:17:58 12. Have consideration for others. 1:25:31 13. Yelling detracts from your dignity. Take your men aside and counsel them. 1:27:13 14. Understand and use judgment. Know when to stop fighting for something you believe is right. Discuss and argue your point of view until a decision is made, and then support the decision wholeheartedly. 1:30:31 15. Discuss and argue your point of view until a decision is made, and THEN support the decision wholeheartedly. 1:42:20 Last one- Stay ahead of your boss. Make the boss look good. 1:52:43 *Bonus*-DETACH! 1:55:20 1:57:00 Echo is doing curls in Hawaii.

In the USAF C-130 world it's an E4 or E5 Dedicated Crew Chief (DCC) who owns the aircraft and leads the young mechanics (crew chiefs). The DCC goes with the aircraft and works for hours after the flight crew has gone to the hotel. You have never seen a level of extreme ownership than a DCC and the crew chiefs who work for them. Break something on their aircraft and you will understand what I mean. You will not find a finer group of Airmen than those grinding out a thankless mid-shift, turning wrenches on an Air Force flight line. IYAMYAS

Love the podcast, but I definitely have an issue with regards to #14 (1:30:36). Currently studying Public Health at San Francisco State University, and having major issues with my Department Professors. I believe they have been very dishonest about recent Public Health events related to Covid-19. Honesty, integrity and accountability are things I believe in very strongly. What am I supposed to do? I've stood my ground but its come at a price. My degree matters to me very much, but so does character and integrity. Not willing to be a sellout with regards to my principles. Not sure what to do here. Hope you can help, or address this sort of thing in a future podcast.

3 things. 1 I wish I could’ve joined the military, my brother joined the marines then my other brother is in the navy currently. I had cancer at age 4 around the head so I got denied automatically. I tried all 4 branches and instantly no. I’m fully healthy and work out. Just having that cancer background won’t let me. Can’t donate blood or plasma. Can’t be a organ donor or join the police force. I passed the physical and written exam with high numbers but as soon as they saw I had cancer back at age 4 and in 29 now. They are like sorry one punch to the head and you’re done. I shoot guns, lift weights, run, I played sports except football. I’ve gone from what am I allowed to do instead of what I want to do. But not being able to join the military and do the stuff that you guys do or my brothers. It does bum me out. 2. From that cancer it has left me with a muscle flap inside my mouth to allow me to open my mouth to eat and speak etc. but sometimes shut comes out wrong or certain letters like C or K or G for google. Physically impossible and I’ve had to learn to rephrase how I speak in the moment many times. I’ve taken voice and diction classes and acted in college. But I physically cannot be loud so being a silent leader is where I land or I find someone who can be loud and I speak to them and let them yell. 3rd. Wish the jocko products would come to the west coast so I don’t have to wait for Amazon to deliver the jocko Go or molk. Hope it reaches here soon. Anyways great podcast. Just jealous of all those who serve. Mentally and physically fine but having gone through 2 years of chemo and radiation for cancer has shut down a lot of things I’ve wanted to do. Tried to be an underwater welder. Nope. The pressure of that with the head, no go. So I’m stuck In life at the moment but I’ll keep pushing. Thank you all who serve. My heart is truly with you guys. Keep pushing your workouts everyone. ❤

I have not been in the military and im canadian but i was a forest fire-fighter for 14 summers and i would recommend trying it out,unless rules have changed you should have no real trouble trying the job out. there are different branches of fire fighting,air attack, maintenance of helicopters or piloting, type-1 or type-2 fire fighting ( type-1's get more chances to fight the big exciting but dangerous flames) , but overall the job is the same as type-2 fire fighters. You would easily qualify as a type-1,you would get great experience seeing how different branches work together and if you like it and stick with it you will meet many good and professional people. Of course there will be some rough patches in the job but thats true of any job, but trust me on this....you will find far more good in the job then bad. Should you decide to try it out i have no doubt you will excel at it. Hopefully your medical history wont prevent you from being hired...as i do not know US hiring rules in forest fire-fighting.
