Jocko Willink: "Become A Dangerous Man Others Respect" - Master Power, Influence & Discipline

“If I’m manipulating you, I am trying to get you to do something that’s gonna benefit me. If I am leading you, I am trying to get you to do something that’s gonna benefit you, that’s gonna benefit the team, that’s gonna benefit the mission”

what a load of trash. he leads soldiers to their death, last i checked leading ppl into a gunfight or a battle is not benefiting them it's benefiting the military and powers that be. this guy is such a blow hard it makes me physically ill. he spent his entire life in a don't ask questions do as your told paradigm even if it means sacrificing your life yet he says he leads ppl by doing what is best for them? haha yea okay jarhead

[@paradigmwolf4694]

@@MrBraffZachlin His position is never about "dont ask questions do as your told", you're going off of his appearance rather than his message. Many men in the military are extremely hardheaded and want to be on their own path in life, not sheep led to a slaughter. Don't assume the military is full of morons willing to die because big jocko told them to. It's not. It's full of people. And people want to be in control of their life. You know what people also want to be in control? The kids that are raped, tortured, and murdered in front of their families by organizations in the middle east. The women that are amputated and blinded, barely kept alive for the worst scum on the planet to fuck repeatedly whenever they want. Sometimes for a message to the others to prevent cooperation with other forces and sometimes just for the hell of it. Plenty of men understand this. And plenty of men are willing to die to stop it. There is corruption in every system including the military. It's not perfect. I'm sure some company influences the powers that be at some level to attack city A rather than city B even if, to an unbiased eye, city B is the better choice. But we don't live in some fully corrupted system that is sending hordes to die for absolutely nothing. No group of men with any value for themselves in a country like ours would constantly volunteer their lives to die for an unknown or superficial cause. If you heard the personal stories from the men sent to do the work you'd have a better perspective on this than one fueled entirely by anger and skepticism.

"Subordinate your ego" is a really great way to look at your relationship with your own ego. So it's a part of your 'team' (i.e. personality), but you have to keep it in check as a member of the team, not overriding the rest of the team

I’ve been listening to Jocko since he started. A lot of what he says seems like common sense to me, maybe because I’ve worked for people who had this type of leadership style (I.e. owning problems, empowering people to solve problems, check your ego at the door, etc) but I love that he’s bringing these messages to the masses. The world needs it right now. When I’ve worked for someone that has a top down leadership style I always ended up losing motivation and interest.

That moment when the others took his direction and repeated his command as a newbie, “hold left, clear right”, I very well may have been the catalyst to Jocko truly seeing himself as capable of being a leader. Those little moments matter. Great show!

[@johnhavel7685]

What Jocko says at 28:50 is something I need to hear been trying to help my mom and dad get their finances straightened out and it’s a mess and I’ve just about gotten to that point of saying screw it you’re on your own then since it seems hopeless to help them. Makes me sad because I really don’t want to see them suffering because of it but it’s also causing me a great deal of unnecessary stress and anxiety trying to get through to them. At some point you just gotta realize there is nothing I can do anymore since you can’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped and doesn’t want to help themselves. Really sucks though
