"Put your ego in check enough that you can win without gloating, and lead without credit."

[@ShawnKavanagh]

Bingo

The master doesn’t talk he acts, and when his work is done, the people say “amazing!, we did it all by ourselves!” Tao te Ching

I like this

[@QuestionEverythingButWHY]

“Don't tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.” ― George S. Patton

[@michaeljohnsonbaugh7962]

General Patton was hands down, the most effective and loved General during the war

[@armorsmith43]

Definitely depends on the situation. There is a place for explicit training.

[@PDStorm170]

Echo brings up a perfect visual analogy for explaining this filling of a leadership vacuum.

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

Sooner or later, I invite the other person "to lead the next dance"... and we usually end up laughing about it as we get it sorted out. ;o)

[@lckypckt3856]

Jocko has changed my life. To the person reading this right now, there are so many great things waiting for you! Take action and believe. Amazing things are in your future! ❤️

[@drinkspecials]

is this from his book? which book?

“When you delegate tasks, you create followers. When you delegate authority, you create leaders.” - Craig Groeschel

[@graydoncarruth5044]

Nailed it!

[@JuanDiaz-ts8rr]

I feel like Echo Charles always has an example at the supermarket. The supermarket is THE place for wisdom I guess.

[@Limpshot_McGee]

"When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all." - Futurama

[@Lucas747G]

Ive experienced this to be accurate a lot of the time. And honestly, it's frustrating.

[@jackmiles1719]

I hope Jocko inspires MORE young men like myself to start a youtube channel and help young men become BETTER! We gotta help eachother out guys. Leadership, masculinity, strength, and discipline is very scarce these days, it is a CRISIS. We gotta be our own heroes.

[@Kittonwy]

Echo: leadership is like the supermarket. Brilliant.

[@graydoncarruth5044]

When you truly lead, it happens when nobody else notices.

[@bazanster2]

Appreciated it guys, looking forward to the "Supermarket Entries" Podcast.

[@BadassMindset]

Art of War concepts effectively applied. Jocko is our contemporary Sun Tzu.

[@xenophonBC]

humility is the best way to be a leader. be aware of ego.

[@nicohcarter1668]

I was just explaining this last night...What a perfectly timed video. A subtle leader, in my eyes, is simply a leader that is able to stay calm under pressure situations and lead by example, but also looks back and helps his people.

[@ctsmith580]

I was Chief Quartermaster on a 688 class submarine. My Navigator was so smooth. He called me to his stateroom for a talk, and it wasn't until an hour after that it dawned on me I had just had my ass chewed.

[@ButterHaus420]

very happy that he just said it at the beginning of the video.

[@blacksunslair]

Fantastic perspective, as always brother. Thank you!

[@graydoncarruth5044]

Leadership is about enabling. You have to put your foot down rarely, but the less you have to do that the better leader you are.

[@AgeofMachines]

Man, this is super good stuff. See a ton of holes in my game that I need to fill.

[@Burningmetalist]

It's scary how this actually is such a perfect description for what the existence in our universe is doing. The process itself is consciously leading the whole show while all moves to that subtle leadership... God is exactly this kind of leader hahahha Jocko is accidentally the most spiritual speaker

[@wateringthefate3890]

Only TRUTH can lead!

[@dannyg8309]

Thank you Jocko

[@jijiXSama]

Great points Jocko

[@joelpickell9352]

Nice analogy Echo!!!

[@justanotherguy312]

0:53 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯….or put your cards on the table by making them put their cards on the table so they can no longer bluff. The magic in destiny is real magic when you knew the outcome to begin with

[@angelabray5048]

This is Everything

[@microMobilidade]

Supermarket entry, thats a great term, when playing speedball (NPPL paintball) time is absent as a game lasts seconds, so when this happens we go by a rule of understanding, we know whcih one of us is better than the other offering cover, so instantly that one will say “Ill cover you” and assume a position so the other teammate knows its go time and no bumping will happen

[@CaseyBurnsInvesting]

Jocko is such a subtle leader he’s subtly leading everyone’s team who routinely watches him 🤫 (Think about it 😉)

[@sladeb6036]

And it helps

[@jsmithsemper4848]

Missouri PD definitely wasn’t ON THE PATH!!!!!

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

AND we keep willingly coming back to get that leadership... we don't have an obligation to click these vid's... but we just keep doing it. ;o)

[@SPICY_BEAR]

I subtly clicked the button to watch this video! 😮😅

[@thepunadude]

be aware of your 'languaging', your words used. entice, manipulate or example. choose, & know the others know!

[@juliolua2104]

Echos arms are getting HUGE... About to explode... He's going to have to share his secret with us. 👍😂💪😎💪

[@thundergrace]

A tough persona intimidates

[@Abraxastrust]

Lionel messi really understands leadership and the English language !!!

[@guystuart4]

Hey Jocko, what book are you reading here?

[@TheActiveAssault]

That’s so fucking true. I feel like a fucking shitty fraud when I get credit for being a leader and hearing my voice too much.

[@drinkspecials]

what book is he reading from? I assume his own but does he have more than one?

[@andrabook8758]

You guys should watch this: How to clean up an oil spill -magnetize the oil first | Arden Warner | TEDxNaperville fulfills all the main requirements for delicate situations: no chemicals, nothing added which cannot be removed, innexpensive, easily adaptable to current equipment....its trully an excellent fit! ^_^ If we, FOCUSED on incentives to bring this type of innovation forward, we could take full advantage of our resources without the impacts to the coral....(no coral = no krill). And if we took this approach for all the energy sources that would definitely completely change the energy debates. All of a sudden its about how we can solve the problems in the most efficient way.

[@tom4139]

But can you do this virtually?

[@mantisintel]

Simple solution: be the one to grab the door for the other.

[@andrabook8758]

I agree with everything in this video :D. Still sad that you can't go a victory dance though....they do them for ALL the sports. People need to get more of a sense of humour bc them not having one, just kills some of the fun for ytou'd normally get out of the victory dance.

[@Bink1221]

Me in warzone games

[@thomasblachdoglewis7995]

💙❤Nice💙❤Period 🇺🇸T.PO🇺🇸🔤 💙YHUP!!❤

[@sladeb6036]

No damn explosions or disembodied heads what the hell Echo.

[@Jguthro]

It’s like Ricky Roma said. Don’t open your mouth until you know what the shot is.

[@thundergrace]

Yep.target at #shaws

[@andershaukoos]

Echo getting fried for that comparison hahaha

[@sneakyninja3102]

So then how do you handle someone who always takes on the leadership role? No matter the decision you make they always override yours and go with there’s? Fail or succeed it’s there way! I usually sit back and take it but part of me wants to call them out for being an incompetent fool but seeing that he is my leader do I just sit back

[@user-nf5fg2gz1e]

He’s a bad leader dude

[@nickrad6966]

Leadership is an art not a science. It’s why it can’t be taught.

[@samdunn717]

It can be taught

[@USAFROTCF22Raptor]

Art can also be taught

[@hootiehootheblowphish4109]

Leader? I hardly know her!

[@thundergrace]

I'm not your daughter!!!

[@thundergrace]

I'm going to die on the road...please stop

[@leonesolurson7067]

Try getting a band together. Then try and keep it together. Artist are impossible. Military has no idea. Bunch of drugged out drama freaks if you take the drugs and drama away, they can't play . No more edge. I give up!

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

Sounds like you need to look into better people to begin with. I've been around a LOT of artists and musicians... drugs and dram are not creative energies. They're lies and deterioration, masquerading as a crutch. True creativity is rare. It's hard, or everyone would just be naturally good at it. Keep looking, and plant the seeds of confidence where you know they can sprout. Don't waste your time on drug-stewed zombies that won't live long enough to reach any degree of fame... AND Keith Richards has outright pointedly said he'd have been just as happy scraping by on playing in bars his whole life. If you're not in the business because you love it, you're there for the wrong reasons from the get-go. Evaluate what you want... ;o)

[@thundergrace]

Jocko you are weird!!!

[@wilsonblauheuer6544]

who the hell wants to be a blowhard blustering leader? Ever hear of Don Vito Corleone?

[@thundergrace]

Yep....still a target..please stop...please stop....just end the podcast.

[@thundergrace]

Please stop

[@thundergrace]

Mr Green juice guy is very annoying! EVERYTHING IS ANNOYING!!!!
