Stop Lying To Yourself (DEF04)

[@teresahemingway4577]

I'm responsible for everything in my life. Say that to yourself before you get out bed everyday.

[@user-hv8bo4ie2v]

Superrr bummed that I missed this for the summer! …all good I’ll start NOW. Thank you Jocko ❤

[@AjaychinuShah]

Thanks for your Service. We appreciated it.

One time my aunt asked me "Arent you feeling lazy or resentful when it is time to do chores?" And i was genuinelly puzzled - why would I feel that way? All the stuff is for my own benefit plus i find it enjoyable. Fast forward sevetal years and I am incapacitated by a chronic illness. It hurts so much to do these things now and the discipline is in letting the chores pile up. There is now a battle between my mind and my body. I want to do things so much but I cannot. Now I do feel resentful and wonder if being lazy is the state of your mind and your body not being aligned.

[@warriorsinagarden]

That sounds really tough, I hope your body heals and you feel better

[@shelbycarr4682]

I agree with your theory. When you're medically not well, like chronic autoimmune issues or bad gut, I think it has a domino effect on everything. Mood, emotion, mental status, drive, energy, will. It's like having the difficulty settings of life cranked to max. It's not impossible to overcome, but it sure as hell feels that way.

[@shyamlynn243]

Doing anything within your capabilities especially the things you'd rather not do but can will move you forward in discipline and better state of mind I think. Easier said than done but hey why not try it, especially if its on your mind. We are all at very different situations and levels in life. That doesn't mean we can't learn the same lessons and obtain the benefits. Wishing you well .

Jocko- My bro-in-law who is retired , 20 years special forces Air Force gifted me the DEF book... years ago... I can see how it helps Men... and my discipline back when I was in my 40's paid off big time. Now in my early 60's ... I'd have to say these things help me WITH the discipline: Gratitude (for a small home) Minding my own business-(sort of speaking) Solitude There are 2 kinds of speaking- (partially from a book) : Commencement Speaker vs. 1 on 1 choosing your words wisely and listening. Apparently some people dislike others who are constantly in "Commencement Speaker" mode- you feel me. Keep up the great work- great podcast Mike in Pennsylvania

[@bootstraphan6204]

All that comfort seeking behavior could be a sign of depression. Comfort itself can be a trap, an addiction, etc... This is where religion, spirituality, and personal development can help you figure out what you want to look like in the world and what you want the world to look like.

[@SubliminAL-ql7go]

Jesus says that he will send the Comforter which is the Holy Spirit to dwell in you. This is how you become a disciple, which comes from the word discipline. To gain supernatural power in order to walk in discipline, otherwise you will do inconvenient things like overindulgence and sin to gain a temporary comfort

[@Canopusparadise]

You are the general and the soldier, Discipline is immediate willing obedience to all orders from yourself. Don’t lie to yourself, Comfort brings Lies. Don’t question the general.

I have DEF manuals , I really appreciate it Jocko when you eloborate further on the topics 🙌🏻

[@catstickler]

Ah the immediate excuse came in my mind that "oh well, I got in an accident and my PT says I need to relearn how to walk properly before I can get back on the kickboxing mat," but I've been holding on to that excuse for the last two months and it makes me feel like shit, so I'm telling my physical therapist I'm going back to training today. I also see how I've been using my chronic illness as an excuse to sleep and rest more each day, but when I give in to the fatigue and stop fighting against it, I end up feeling terrible and can't do everything I need and want to do simply because there's not enough time or energy to get the stuff done since sleeping/resting saps my energy and drive to do stuff when I'm awake. It's a tricky balance because I've pushed myself genuinely too hard and ended up in the hospital, but coddling myself isn't doing me any favors either.

[@shyamlynn243]

Okay I signed up, I'm in. A bit scared and intimidated for reasons I won't bother to mention but I am thankful for the opportunity to get some things in my life squared away with a push and help of leaders I respect. ...Here we go!

[@frankiewilson6001]

“You are the General and the Soldier”. Kill. Love it. Thank you

[@AudraT]

Good video. I was wracking my brain thinking what else could possibly be making a happy person feel like they need more discipline? It might actually be he really is happy but he learned this mindset that he could never be good enough. I remember this church I used to go to where the pastor was very authoritarian and preached as though God was always disgusted and disappointed in you, even when you were sincere and obedient to God. After a while people started to feel like God was always unhappy with them, they could never be good enough, and God would always be a mystery no matter how sincere they cried out to Him. This caused a lot of self doubt in people and in their own salvation. Once people started leaving this influence most of them started to have a much more balanced and honest view of themselves. I know this other person that grew up in a legitimate cult. The cult wasn't like those Hollywoodized TV and movie cults. In this real cult everyone moved into this private trailer park and eventually the ministry started abusing people (nothing sexual). Beating kids and such. It was the single older women and widows who blew the whistle on everything. So this guy got out of this cult when he was a kid but he says he still battles some unhealthy mindsets, like feelings of inferiority and such.

Thank you very much!

I hear audio now

[@rec-itgaming4153]

Good.

[@manfredullrich483]

Most people can "truly" do better, and yes, they actually believe that. And guess what, they may not take the actions necessary to "do better", and - they are still fine. There is no "need" to be the best possible version of yourself, for whom and for what? If you are doing alright, and are content or even happy with where you are at right now, why changing? Usually change or even improvement comes with a certain risk. Goals set too high may actually harm.

Instant obedience to orders, sir. Good times

We're all gonna make it brahs

[@dcal8141]

Jocko your podcasts are changing my life by changing my actions ,thoughts, and the way I looked at things. I have struggled with a serious drinking problem since I was 18 my least drink I tried to take my own life and my brother turned me on to your podcast and I been sober ever since. I can’t tank you enough

[@davido6880]

Nothing wrong with occasionally skipping discipline. Give some fun and relaxing time for yourself or you can burn out. Been there.

[@MrIF123456]

Wish I was born with level 7 discipline

[@baldrickization]

"Embrace its cold and relentless power hah hah hah..hell yeah, i like that line" i love it when we see a little flash of Jockos dark side 😂 yes he's a very cool, helpful and great guy but under no circumstances fuck with this person 😬😂💪

The DEFreset a strong buyin by Jocko and Co. it's free and it works as well as you work it. Would be awesome if the DEFreset was quarterly. Truth is sometimes you have to muddle around to rebuild foundations that crumbled

Henry Rollins music video from 1994 - "LIAR" - IF the Liar is a separate entity that resides "IN you" ...just as the Coach does.... don't be a "Sucker" as Henry says.

[@ExcitedCoyote-ow4vl]

I wish I could discuss my options with you personally. Nothing more that I want then to get involved and unlock my potential. I know I’m a failure but because I’ve been a failure, if I’m given the opportunity I would utilize it. I’ve had some decent successes with discipline and education in the past. However, poor decision making ruined my life. Any input is much appreciated. Thank you.

[@kenroc546]

Man, I can relate. Failures are things that happen, failures are not people. Where's does your hope rest? Who do you have faith in? A broken and contrite heart, God will never dispise. Only Christ gives us hope and faith and that makes our heart strong. There will be more failures in life, but in Christ, He gives you the inner strength to get up and move foward.

[@TheGuitarChief]

How do you stay disciplined when you lack hope?

[@HA-fd7xr]

Create the hope

[@danialmalikofficial]

Breath hope!

[@andyd834]

Jocko would definitely have some words. But underlined would be take ownership, and put in the work no excuses.

[@BenjaminJLadd]

You’re my personal trainer whether you realize it or not, Jocko. Semper Fi, (Fat) Link New Year’s Resolution: Stop lying to myself and become (Lean) Link. Run another 1st Class U.S. Marine Corps PFT and be within weight standards. Then become the best swordsman in the world. Learn to fly. Write a letter to Congress to become an Aviator.

[@katepavelle9465]

Welp…sounds like I lie to myself an awful lot! Time to cut that out. Thank you!

[@hippomancy]

should hurt a little bit...? maybe hurt a lot, initially, if you have not been honest for a while. the first discipline is honesty...

[@andrewyuzwa5840]

I had to restart my phone in order to get audio

Please keep doing more of these.

Well this was an honest one

So good

[@gursevakdcsingh5457]

discipline: imitate willing obedience to obey all orders

[@TheMyrmidon22]

We lie to ourselves about being happy, because we measure ourselves against the individuals we spend time with. The we look and listen to social media and become disconnected with our great lived and this is where the lying begins. Are we really living, or could we be more responsible with our time and abilities. Does this sound like a dumb thought?

[@jameskeating4719]

Yooo ECHO CHARLES got a movie ❤ coming out soon how bout that

Bad ass content !!!

[@yduronerom6380]

I'd like to be content. It's in us all to want to improve upon our previous selves. It's hard to be hungry when you are always stuffing food down the throat....

AMEN. Stay ahead of the wave or get rolled. Hey you guys wanna walk my dog I just inherited from my late Uncle at 3 AM every day? BOOM

[@highflyer13131]

I get the lack of sleep before missions as a soldier. As a civilian we don't have the fear that our slacking off will get us killed. This leads to a lower bar where we are happy. This doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement. Human nature seeks homeostasis, and the path of least resistance. We may achieve a God state in life, but we also as humans want more! Greed,just, and eny are real!

[@defenderofwisdom]

You don't want to hear the truth dude. That, every US military opertion in the past 70 years was futile, that a hundred years of national ambitions were a waste, and that there is going to be this bloody collapse that became certain between the 60s and 80s. And that ain't my fault. I just fought to fix it.
