Jocko Podcast 215 w/ Echo Charles: You'll Never Be Free Unless You Tell Yourself The Truth.

[@gijoey5912]

I want to see Jocko do an episode of Hot Ones.

[@badmotorpetey]

Gi joey holy shit that would be great

[@zacharysmith5061]

He would allow one single tear to form in his non-shooting eye

[@kristopherrice1465]

Zachary Smith lmfaooo beat me to it

[@milkdromeda2964]

I've only seen a few episodes of hot ones, but the only one I've seen take it like a champ, was Neil D. Tyson. I'm Sure Jocko could also dominate

Thanks for this quote man.

[@Living_Legend85]

Pants Pantaloonian such a thing requires thought more than a reaction, we do know the phone is reactionary and what the majority of us are using to write here.

[@guitarnutbolinuli9875]

Great podcast. I'm sure I'm not alone in knowing that I have fallen into ego traps and lack of discipline; Jocko's intelligence, pragmatism, and humor are inspiring.

[@clif.c.2906]

I love these conversations. It is like therapy to me. I can totally connect with these guys like a friendship.

[@colorado4815162342]

Jocko at 1:20:14-1:23:33 I don't find discipline Discipline finds me Discipline is freedom The truth will set you free

[@jordanlane645]

Enebruce Teques stopped what I was doing to re-listen to this section a few times, got me fired up

[@chris.ander116]

Jocko should have on Tuskegee Airmen Charles McGee. The centenarian flew over 400 combat missions between WW2, Korea, and Vietnam. He must have plenty of great stories and wisom to share.

[@jdfitz]

YES!!!!! @jocko

[@DevinDieselD]

yes please jocko!

[@dionthomas5418]

Jocko and Echo great advice on how to put ego aside and work hard and take responsibility for success in the real world

[@Roguish_nerd]

Truth is, whenever I start slowing down in my personal goals, I listen to a little jocko and echo, and ist amazing how I find time to make the good calls, and put the effort in that corrects my course. Thank you so much guys. Discipline does mean freedom.

[@kaltonian]

Hi Jocko & Echo, i just want to say thank you for this episode, i did initially write a whole paragraph on it, however i think a simple thanks will suffice, but i will say that you guys are doing a grand job & your advice has been really constructive, the way you suggested how to tackle the ego in the work place was brilliant, life is easy it's people that make it harder, so i appreciate your advise in this grand world of chess playing. Again thanks guys & looking forward to the next episode.

[@Living_Legend85]

Come on man these muscle heads can’t read! That’s why I like these good guys who take in knowledge and take care of their body, soul, and mind. Emotional, physical, and spiritual well being is what we should be striving for.

[@brynfrrll]

Jocko imitating Echo is the best.

[@donnellyzaraki4518]

Such a big fan when Jocko says: "cheeeeeeeck..."

[@walperstyle]

FIRST 5 MINS (give or take). When I was working as a mudman on drilling rigs, you could tell the rigs that wanted to keep working. Each crew would try to one up the other crew and achieve more than the other. The drilling rigs that were doomed to fail and lose contracts were the ones that would fight each other, and their crews would be always leaving something for the other person to pick up.

[@iliveinsideyouranus3556]

Men of heart and wisdom, you guys rock, helping me get back to normal with your teachings 👍

[@jaredforpres]

Thank you for being Jocko and echo!

[@JaxRK1]

The classic, “Good evening Echo.” Good evening, to you all.

[@OneEyedDrummerTDHE]

First time in a leadership position. Thank you for the advice and tips.

[@haydentherooster5734]

Love this topic! I’m in LE and I have said it since I started...knowledge is nothing unless you pass it on!

[@andrabook8758]

what is LE?

[@crackcrock]

Lived a lie of a life for ever to feel better about my pathetic nature/lifestyle etc. It was a rough set of years to tell myself the truth more and more to have a honest perspective on where I was in life, very depressing etc. Was worth the pain because I know I am a honest person now.

[@heathcaldwellfit2060]

Best way to start the day while crushing the weights...listening to the Jocko podcast!

[@drewsson]

Once you become fearless... life becomes limitless.

[@petter9399]

you dont become fearless, you become brave. Absence of fear is extremely dangerous, wisdom, strength, agression and courage transcends fear

[@guitarnutbolinuli9875]

Great podcast, I'm sure I'm not alone in knowing that I have fallen into ego traps before; I love Jocko's intelligent pragmatism, and his humor.

[@clawedmist6893]

Right on time ,love you bro,just a reminder I needed.

[@drakeperry7907]

Would Love to see Matt Best on this podcast!

[@kaltonian]

At 35 minutes in, about the young lady at high school and bullying, the fact that she is at one of your seminars or gatherings speaks volumes to me, to have the notion to attend shows that she is way ahead of the rest and i take my hat of to her and i would like to say that school is just a moment in your journey that will pass just like when you run up a hill, once done it's done

[@GoodForTheSoulcc]

Echo! Can you please make a clip where jocko starts answering a question at one hour and 18 minutes in. “The truth will set you free” And for sure add some explosions to it! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@BostonsF1nest]

Finally some q and A

[@garydaly]

Thanks for another great podcast.

I'm not the only one who can't get enough of Echo's marginally applicable metaphors.

[@dimitrisliverios9077]

Jocko should take the next batman role

[@orangebanana7129]

So, I started going to the gym 4-5 days per week. I think this is end of week 4. Well yesterday I was stricken with strep throat; tonsils the size of golfballs, sore and throbbing. I was really excited to do arm day today, but I am convinced that my body needs rest. My level of ownership here is playing the game where my body has made an executive decision. I can't go run, and I can't do the arm exercises I had planned. I cant go to the gym and risk infecting others, but I can psych myself up for the day I am able to resume exercise. I can feed my body good, hearty, healthy foods. I can absorb useful, wholesome information and keep my brain as sharp as possible. I can plan for the week ahead and develop a strategy to mitigate the risk of getting sick or injured when I can get back to work. I'm subordinating my ego and giving my body the time it needs to heal, instead of worrying about the gains I'm missing. The dumbbells will still be there when I return, and I'll be in a better vantage point to make those gains. Right now, my immune system is getting some, and next week, my body is gonna get some.

[@jonathanhalcomb9076]

Be on time and washed up fresh (since I do live a slightly different lifestyle by running to work i need time to perhaps rinse my face) I get that. Something which I must plan for and show up earlier. But there seems to be within my perceptual understanding an authority struggle, that is just within my reach when I go to increase my mental toughness by using "Infantry" self talk and remembering being courteous, yet the moment I go to perform slightly better, by washing at the beginning of my shift, dishes which are not yet washed but could use a fresh start, the authority struggle begins. It was not with the intention of outperforming, but rather going "Infantry" on the front line of food safety WITH my team, yet the assessment is that "I am too worked up, I have too much "energy" which at least was an answer to what I must think about. I do want to fix it and have it not be a power struggle, but rather a "hell yeah" response, which maybe I am shooting for the stars on that, but you get the point.

[@sdbling]

There’s such a delay between being able to listen to it on the Jockopodcast website and KZbin. I listened ta 2/3rds a this two days ago. I spent like 23 minutes earlier trying to find the vid thinking of course it’s out on KZbin somewhere, why wouldn’t it be out? Echo doesn’t lag that hard, but alas... anyway it’s out. Finally. Mr. Echo. Thank you

[@AngryOscillator]

Slapjack, also known as Slaps, is a simple standard-deck card game, generally played among children. It can often be a child's first introduction to playing cards. The game is a cross between Beggar-My-Neighbour and Egyptian Ratscrew and is also sometimes known as Heart Attack. *Wikipedia*

[@evanlomax7591]

I needed to hear this.

[@justinsimmons2961]

One hour and three minute mark should definitely be an excerpt

[@DocKing87]

Ahhhh STA-21. I was an alternate on my first 2 packages. My third was pure gold, the best I could’ve asked for, topped off with recommendations from the MARFORPAC Commander and Surgeon. Submitted it and wouldn’t you know, during Obama-Era sequestration they abolished the Medical Corp (Doctor) option. Man I was crushed. But happy it didn’t happen, wouldn’t be where I am today.

[@mattmorrison9379]

Maybe you didn't invent it, but I'm sure you have articulated it in such a way that helps people grasp the idea a little easier.

[@Abel1120]

damn it echo.... 😂😂🍻

[@ASacredClown]

Both are right about slap jack vs Black Jack

[@panosm.8041]

I've said it before but I'll keep saying it. Guys, it would be great if you brought David Goggins on the podcast. We would all go nuts! I suspect there is some tension between Goggins and some of Jocko's old Team guys but there is much common ground in discipline, overcoming issues and getting after it overall! Either way though, no factor!

Blackjack or sap are the most common terms for the impact tool in question. Slapjack I don't know, might be another common name for it among some people also. Laws on possession and use vary depending on the state--everything is illegal in California, which is one huge reason I don't live there.

[@lr2119]

Yes blackjack is the correct term. Slapjack = pancakes

[@Living_Legend85]

Guys looking ready to wear a hat backwards Subbed and liked the video. It’s confrontational because it’s something we all work to improve upon. Can’t worry about anonther mans worries unless he’s needing your help.

[@calebjohnson6654]

Request for Edward Byers and/or Elliot Ackerman on the ‘cast.

[@lordintelleki4775]

You're right. You all know me better than I know myself... 😭😭😭 I want a harem of willing girlfriends

[@steellionstrength2709]

Lol you can build one. Nothing's impossible boss.

[@KavySan16880]

My dawg.

[@coleg5578]

Just become rich and famous. Easy nuff right?

[@andrabook8758]

I'm getting more and more of a sense that "ego" in these examples means false, shallow pride. As opposed to the pride you get from truly being the best at something. I don;t get that. Don't people get bored not being challenged? Isn't boredom worse than breaking a sweat? Plus working hard together is a positive way of building workplace relationships.

[@travistaylor6110]

7:20 GOOD.

[@SinsiAlpha]

Good evening

[@chrisadams5124]

You are both right. There is a slapjack and a blackjack.

[@chrisadams5124]

A blackjack is what is commonly referred to as a night stick, and a slapjack is a leather tool with a weighted lead end used to hit the subject. The are both illegal and legal in different areas of the united states.

[@lr2119]

Blackjack is a weighted leather pouch used for knocking people out silently

[@rafaelosorio77]

Sometimes I feel Jocko is just holding echo against his will when he’s holding that blade in his hand

[@MrAdam-fo6uc]

Just to clarify are we say ecosystems egosystem???Cause I really like egosystem

I see you read questions off the sheet in the episodes. Do you read these -->

[@mikeyd1141]

Every time Jocko or Echo say “ecosystem” do 10 burpees.

[@kof867]

So you have chosen.....DEATH BY BURPEE!

[@AngryOscillator]

I was wondering what you were on about, now I need oxygen

[@andrabook8758]

You should tell him good job and follow his example! :) working hard isn't brown nosing tho....that's when they just spend all their energy sucking up. If they're just working hard, maybe you should join them and then you'll both be better.

[@RGB2060]

I'm confident in the next episode they'll discover colors

[@zakkrichardson7141]

I have a question Jocko, do you concealed carry every day and if you do what do you carry everyday? What does your every day carry look like?

[@cascadianapplications7124]

Has Jocko ever read about Wehrmacht soldiers or anything?

[@BradPitbull]

I HAVE FINALLY ACCEPTED MY SKINNY KNEES

[@MichaelJames707]

👑👑

[@lindahockham5081]

Regarding the fellow who is working extra hard to get ahead: he has taken his eye off service and became self serving. When dedicated to the goal of keeping people safe, and doing it to the best of one’s ability all the energy of the universe is at his disposal. When serving self, it’s serving man (EGO) instead of GOD . It becomes hard work rather than pure joy and honour.

[@sweetieturner3377]

im SO happy to have found you. how to respond when another DOESNT live taking the high road & takes that low road to undermine you while youre making great strides forward? these cackling old bitties have systematically wiped out every one around, im the last standing. piff ----

[@andrabook8758]

Ok, real question: How do I appeal to ego in such a way as to get people to do what's best long term even tho they might be sacrificing an ego trip in the short term? For example: trophy hunting. One way to go on an ego trip is to just shoot everything big and awesome insight, BUT that means the population will decline and become weak, small and sickly in the long term which will result in: no more trophies. BUT if you focus on long term, and shoot the smaller, weaker ones instead: the species will get more and more awesome. Thus you hunts could very well go back to being the stuff of songs and legends ;). When I talk about this with people one on one almost everyone agrees, but how do you translate that into unanimous consent where ppl really get it and support it? And are excited about it. Rather than just thinking you're trying to take away their trophies and make their lives less interesting. Real predators get this. Human hunters are more ego driven.

[@lcobb5214]

Echo is one of those people that may give the impression that he is high, even though he is drug free.

[@coleg5578]

L Cobb lol he ain’t 100% drug free. Those arms don’t lie, he’s running a bit of the old “enhancement” if you know what I mean.
