Jocko Podcast 23 - with Echo Charles | Sun Tzu "The Art of War" | Dealing w Betrayal

[@jamakinmekrazie2217]

This podcast has got me eating right and working out daily again, thanks for helping me get after it.

[@kurtistrego9847]

lets go

[@DrengrMike]

Hell yeah, get some

[@bim1537]

How has it been since?

[@DWG0619]

Me too bro. Me too

[@Joe_Fauci]

Stay after it

[@CoupedUpGenny]

The ending is always goosebumps "Stop looking for a shortcut, start finding that alarm clock" omg

[@jarednelson1865]

I like Echo Charles...he is like Silent Bob..just chills and takes it all in. 🤙🏼

[@genxhavoc5065]

I've read this book many times over the years. But listening it from a true military commander was an absolute treat. Thanks for your commentaries, really appreciate it !

[@fonz2888]

I could not have found a better podcast to listen to. SUBSTANCE. Keep it up guys.

[@beachballa93]

You know when you're getting that profile shot of Jocko, shits getting real fired up.

[@giusepperesponte8077]

People take for granted the knowledge in the art of war. Sun tzu quite literally wrote the book on military strategy, total genius for his time.

[@missyangfire874]

The art of war is my mantra. I am so floored that Jocko sights "The Art of War"

[@DanPeters182]

I'm a little late to the party but I now massively look forward to these. Thanks for all the hard work that goes into making this awesome.

[@orebbiL]

Absolutely love this podcast Jocko and Echo! That's all I wanna say really, keep it up! :)

[@rmv4646]

Echo and Jocko, you guys are awesome. I listen to you for probably a few hours per day.....I have a crazy commute and some time at work. Keep up the positivity and great messages. Echo, maybe you do not have the same experiences Jocko has, but your input is valuable. Keep up the great work! Semper Fi!

[@Kev80ification]

I am soooo happy to have found Jocko's podcast!

[@06livefast]

this podcast is great but this episode came at a very important time in my life when strategy was crucial. Thanks Jocko and your damn right I'll flank from the side

[@zbs28]

"Water takes the shape of the ground it overflows." - putting that one in my back pocket.

[@slimpickens9103]

Grateful to hear quality information from a reliable and experienced resource. Wow! this has me so thankful.

[@alexandercastiglione872]

Great as always, love how Echo Charles is getting more and more engaged in the conversation. Keep em coming Jocko and Echo.

[@jacobperdue2224]

Jocko for president I mean let's get real. Brilliant leader

[@lcobb5214]

Mr Willink is an awesome influence on everyone who hears him speak!

[@PhilippeCarphin]

Man that introduction by Sun Tzu is so good. "The Art of War is of vital importance to the state ... hence it is a subject of enquiry which can on no account be neglected". I remember where I was when I first read it. But hearing Jocko read it and get fired up about it is amazing! I've slipped it in during my teaching days : "Git is a tool of great importance to the programmer, a road to either team disputes or to good collaboration. Hence it is a subject which should really not be neglected" (change it up enough so that if you don't know the quote, it doesn't seem like I'm doing a bit, but not too much so that if you know the quote, you might recognize it).

[@phloridaman5334]

JOCKO YOUR WISDOM AND ADVICE INSPIRED ME TO CHANGE MY LIFE AND STAY ON THE PATH. THANK YOU.

[@BostonsF1nest]

Jocko should do this book again

[@jamieandrei]

Nice little re-cap / refresh to a classic tome. Thanks for the time to produce & share it - good modern context.

[@DaxterAs]

Absolutely underrated podcast episode! It’s great that these are available. 🔥🤘

[@yvindhidebarstad]

One of the best podcasts so far. (Yes I have started from number 1. Read Extreme Ownership first and discovered the podcast later.

[@marcelomartinez7456]

Love this knowledge, got me eating my breakfast tactically

[@GallardoNY]

New listener to this podcast, just a couple weeks in. I’m in a very similar place as the person who submitted a question at 1:46:08. Jocko’s certainty with his answer was what I really needed to hear. Thank you.

[@americanmambi]

1:02:10 absolutely true, in fact not only kids but anyone else with any deep issue. You will never be the cure to someone else's problem, if you insist on helping them you will only become a hindrance to their development and a crutch in their life. Let them fall, they will get themselves up.

[@ThePatches72]

D27Rugen what I wonder though is when do you take capabilities into consideration. A two year old tying shoes may be more than that two year olds ability. Do you leave their shoes untied? Jocko considers abilities. He has an example of a person who doesn’t have a voice that travels far. That person may need to get another to yell orders so they can be heard.

[@nebber1234]

getting better is a campaign of discipline, hard work and dedication #GOOD

[@twistedcitizens8437]

Thanks for answering my question about Sport vs Self Defense jits. I'm a white belt and still learning the basics. I have nothing against sport and would like to learn the sport techniques later on. But I'd also like to know that after reaching an intermediate/high level that whatever I've learned is still useful in a street situation - You've answered this question and thank you! As Echo said, there is some disapproval in the community regarding sport jiu jitsu and as a beginner, I just wanted to know that whatever I'm about to learn will still be potent in a real life situation.

[@mikedeluca3378]

I like you just started BJJ,learning the basics.Theres a lot to learn!!!

[@flyerzy]

The thought of Sun Tzu's art of war comes from the Tao. Many ancient Chinese ancient books, political books, medical books, astronomical books, etc. all originated from the philosophical thinking of Tao. Many books have been ruined due to historical wars and other reasons. Some books have also been retained.

[@MouseInYourEye]

The Tao was written roughly 100 years AFTER the art of war.

[@abdulabbasi5724]

Another great podcast. A lot of wisdom to absorb. Will listen again.

[@agustinTellez-u8z]

faster, wiser, stronger.....that is what I need right now.

[@johnsmith2221]

He is the epitome of speaking with conviction.

[@carlosgarza1701]

This is just a badass podcast. This message is awesome and just effective in my life thank you.

[@jefflentz4832]

By far, my favorite so far ! Thanks guys

[@eastinghouse]

Solid discussion about Sun Tzu's Art of War

[@oriongoku7399]

Ok so was skimming and I have watched all but 3-4 of these ...BIG FAN

[@mainstay35]

Getting after it at 4:34am now...Thanks guys!

[@FelixGuerrero12]

I wish this podcast had closed captions. Love the podcast and enjoy the knowledge shared by the legend.

[@jimgilroy8269]

Felix Guerrero why are u deaf??

[@josephsiko6731]

that last 6 minutes... GOLDEN! thank you!

[@M_Hess]

Jocko, thank you for answering about the question about regret for not joining the military. I am 32 and have always wanted to join but have not pulled the trigger yet to sign up. I feel serving is a great honor, calling, and brotherhood. I feel like I am at a point in my life where I need a life and work change. Would have been easier for me to do when I was younger and now at an older age where time is running out before I age out I am afraid I'll regret it later.

[@vjcnyc5074]

Love this pod cast! My favorite so far

[@canceresbunny]

I've read this book a few tears ago and was in awe of the importance spirit (moral) and knowledge (spies, intelligence, etc) had. Idkw I expected like a more brute approach, but it is very subtle.

[@JuicefromConcentrate]

1:00:20 - reciprocal altruism.

[@louisreinoso]

You are on the mark with your comments at 1:29 about people not being able to handle the truth, but more importantly for me, I am unwilling to shift in my way of interacting with people up and down the chain of command. I am used to focusing on the mission, and not dealing with emotions, which has limited my ability as a leader. I am direct, but compassionate and respectful; but usually brutally honest with people. I enjoy people being brutally honest with me, I feel that it cuts through the BS.

[@rickygunz5526]

Back to the book!!👊🏼

[@maxbiggtluffy4955]

I can feel the passion in this video

[@MRFOURKAY]

Awesome ! Love the new Studio , hands down you guys are my favorite Podcast , Sorry Joe Rogan 😆

[@maxbiggtluffy4955]

''SUN TZU SAID'' could listen to him say that all day.

[@corm1000]

This was why Napoleon called China the sleeping Giant, he read the "Art Of War"

[@austinunterbrink9805]

1 answer is not the answer. Just another nugget of Jocko wisdom

[@j.mcguire7525]

Found you On JRE I know Im Late. Thanks!!

[@Regulareverydaynormalguy1]

Also, Jocko for president 2024

[@maxbiggtluffy4955]

I could listen to Jocko read sun tzu any day of the week. why the hell isnt this this on kindle.

[@hekkenschutz]

I appreciate this so much keep up the good work

[@aureliusrusticus2320]

2500 years ago was a very interesting time period in terms of human enlightenment. Both the Greek and Roman cultures were reaching a point of extraordinary development - philosophically, architecturally, militarily, culturally. The Buddha was born. The Vedic culture began writing down their most important scriptures - scriptures that were otherwise only known through extensive oral traditions. And, of course, Sun Tzu penned The Art of War. It was as if the knowledge and wisdom accumulated thousands of years prior began reaching perfection. 2500 years ago was like an era of miniature enlightenment.

[@aureliusrusticus2320]

*The Bhagavad Gita, the most sacred of all Vedic scripture was finally written down 2500 years ago.

[@combatresearch]

+Dane Rusticus German philosopher Karl Jaspers noticed this also. He called it the axial age. You'll enjoy researching this, if you haven't already.

[@aureliusrusticus2320]

Alex Duran -- Axial age...right on. Thanks, friend.

[@alexandercastiglione872]

2:08:00 - Goddamn nice speech. Get some!

[@motamanifest]

2 year old daughter: daddy can you tie my shoes? Me: tie them yourself.

[@mikelowry4428]

Adam Mota You: I wish I was somebody important. I should try and make a funny comment and get likes. Reality: No you're still a weirdo and a loser.

[@bamawebdev8640]

Mike Lowry: Self-awareness isn't your strong suit, is it?

[@mikelowry4428]

bamaWebDev Relevance definitely isn't yours so see ya later.

[@bamawebdev8640]

That doesn't even make sense. You okay, man?

[@mikelowry4428]

bamaWebDev Umm.. I said relevance isn't your strong suit. that does make sense idiot.. Hop off my comments.

[@rribble79]

Thank you Jocko

[@ancestraldiaspora]

Interesting. About 7-8 years ago in high school I came up with an equation for teaching humans. 3 elements. Self Reliance to become Self-Sufficient in becoming Self-Sustaining. Pretty much what echo was talking about 1:04:20

[@MorethanGUNZ]

That was one of best send offs yet.

[@thomaschase7097]

Good advice. Use tact to deliver constructive criticism. Human reaction to constructive criticism has more to do with delivery, in most cases, than the content of the message. If you think the people working for you are stupid, why did you hire them in the first place? If you didn't hire them, as a good leader, IMO, you find a way to correct the stupid with constructive criticism and guidance. If you can't fix the stupid, then put that person in a low risk position. I would rather be hated for being honest and truthful, than loved for being disingenuous. A good read on tact is, "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

[@alstonpowerz4249]

Best Podcast out there

[@sugarglider1062]

Best Podcast !!!

[@kurtistrego9847]

these guys got huge since starting the podcast

[@BostonsF1nest]

Right? They each look like they gained about 40lbs of muscle

[@edwardsmith1768]

I was soo happy to see this is 2 hrs 😃😃

[@DrengrMike]

Jocko "jewel of the nation" Willink and Echo "reciprocal something" Charles

[@michaelrhodes6730]

echo always seems a little nervous and figity. but the heat jocko makes constant eye contact with him when he talks from across the table..but who wouldn't be lol

[@DryRot69]

My son has been taking Tae Kwon Do for 14 months. He recently joined the competition team. The difference in the execution and practice are night and day. Belt promotion, break a board, complete a sequence of moves, spar only with kicks waist high. Competition, different gear, different mannerisms, full contact, full body protective gear.

[@Daavisonfire]

Echo's voice doesn't match his body and face lol

[@jazminjones9513]

I’d like to hear you say that to Echo Charles’ face.! XD

[@dmitryverniba8715]

He's merely being a deceptive BJJ player. When you are soothed by his voice, and you least expect it, he comes out of your speakers and rips your arm off. True story, a friend of a friend who this happened to told me. Apparently, if you are wearing headphones, he goes for a choke hold. I don't know whether this is true though. That sneaky Echo!

[@DrengrMike]

Echo "highly trained" Charlie

[@SnowPyramid]

Roids.

[@giusepperesponte8077]

Cause he’s a secure man. He doesn’t need to superficially deepen his voice to feel manly, I mean look at him.

[@cezarimecs]

Start to run listening to this podcast’s

[@06livefast]

Good book, GREAT podcast.

[@MRFOURKAY]

Jocko & Echo , can you guys make Tshirt's that says "GOOD" Get After It 😎👍

[@ronaldmarks5772]

I wonder if Mr. Willink ever met Chris Kyle, and if so, whether he can give an honest depiction of the man. Thank you for your service.

[@redskincaps]

Arguminium Marcelius watch the first pod cast with lief

[@daviddeleon4448]

FYI he gave a speech about kyle at the stadium in Texas.

[@KingCobra-hz8go]

Outstanding. Thanks -

[@recon0911]

The guy needs to watch the Gracie in Action films. The film shows clearly, men from ALL styles of martial arts versus the gracie BJJ style. Brazilian jui jitsu wins 99% of the time. I do think being familiar with boxing, and other striking arts is wise. However, if I only have the time to train in one combat sport it would be jui jitsu. It teaches position, which is the ultimate element in winning a brawl whether its street or sport. On the thought of revealing information I heard a man say "Is it true? Is it tactfully kind? Is it necessary?" I like that guideline for sharing information as a leader.

[@ZanderPingu]

I would love to hear Jocko's commentary of the film 300.

[@ryrez4478]

Dope episode

[@dustinpribble1546]

The "break ur cooking pots" is also scorched earth policy.... Don't leave supplies the enemy can benefit from or survive on if u happen to fail

[@josephgrumet]

Great stuff

[@bishopkamikaze3097]

I can relate to the angry about "punishment"/work. I get pretty upset if I don't get to go to Jiu-jitsu lol

[@OlovMetal]

Sun tau gave public lectures, people copied what he wrote on baboo slabs. This is why it starts with "Sun Tzu Said "

[@LastDollie]

2:25 "The OLDEST book in Minecraft" 😂

[@RowmanSailor]

Echo, I recognize that WH40K symbol on that tee...

[@Sebastian-pb9hm]

Picturing someone doing a Berimbolo in a street fight made me laugh so hard.

[@pauld4355]

the video is great.

[@leoliu6450]

Wow, This is Great Social Skill Advice!! I am Stupidedly Niavely Blunt

[@adamgardener9082]

And terrible at spelling 😉

[@dionthomas5418]

I own a copy of the art of war by Sun Tzu that very well written by a true warrior I apply it in my life

[@Gilbertmk2]

59:40, Jocko's daughter using the indirect approach.

[@30yearoldgrom]

now go get after it!!!

[@jscottfischer]

If the undertaker and Dr Phil had a baby, it would be Jocko willink.

[@DJRAJEE]

Amazing

[@MaboDayZ]

"mmhm, yeah.. yup.. yeah... right..."

[@MichaelJPartyka]

Note to Echo: "With great power, there must also come great responsibility" is Spider-Man's tagline, not Superman's.

[@mregas78]

Jocko you should tell your son that history revolves around cycles. War is only one element of cycles, albeit an important one.

[@MinePurpose]

What the hell kind of friends does Echo have?! LOL

[@דודרנדלמן]

At 16:18, it seems that in ancient china when one spoke or wrote in a more formal manner one would use one's own name in place of the pronoun 我 meaning, of course, "I". It seems to emphasize humility by the speaker. In english, on the contrary, arrogance or position of power would be conveyed.

[@andrewpilone]

59:42 is law of reciprocity.
