[@danieloh169]

When I was 20 I made a U-turn at night... on the highway. I had missed the turnpike and was kinda drunk /high. I just didn't feel like driving to the next one. So I turned and did 300 metres. Had four people in the car with me. Could have all died and then some. To this day I reckon that to be the worst decision of my life, but I've learned so much from it. I quit drinking and smoking cold turkey, and found God. I am a very fortunate man, and I will never cease to remember it.

Discipline = freedom , perspective will give you gratitude

[@BecozPro]

I love how un-judgemental Jocko is. What an excellent human.

[@dethofgod666]

It's amazing because there's so many active duty guys that talk down on guard and reserve that haven't done half what jocko has.

[@mathiasgadeyt]

Failure can be one of the toughest things to experience in life, but if you work hard enough you will eventually overcome it in some way

[@justins7796]

never in my entire life was I taught to see failure as a lesson. It was always the end of the world.

[@Bigfishboi7]

I really love how he doesn’t care what the person did really he just has some level headed pragmatic advice and never passes any judgements. We all need a jocko

[@michaelcaprio311]

Failure is the best teacher, no matter what learn from mistakes and try again. (Carry on and move forward).

[@MrRocksW]

That point at 5:15 really struck a chord with me. I embarrassed myself in my professional life a few years ago and let a lot of people down. I still think about it almost dailly.

[@obinnaukoha1380]

This video is good. I made a mistake that cost me a dream job that came effortlessly. I feel like life finally gave me the chance to turn my life around and i blew it. I have hated myself ever since. I may never get such a job offer ever again. It just hard to move forward when things around you just keep reminding you of your failure. I see friends get great jobs and open a new chapter in their life and I feel like I don't deserve it because when life gave me my chance, I was to careless to realize it.

[@Hyperions92]

Failure is only a lesson

[@kylevebar3909]

I have gotten straight As my whole life, always had a job, and have a consistent workout routine, during covid i starting failing two classes this semester for the first time, this video helped, but i still wish i could just work like a machine

[@ImpactMotivation]

Failures are just life lessons, keep going!

[@dropcake]

Damn Jocko, the intensity is strong in this one. Thank you and Echo. Your videos are full of sage advice and they really help me with my problems.

[@cshawn316]

Listening to Jocko brightens my day. Love the podcasts....

[@Chill-mm4pn]

When I was in my twenties I went to college but it didn't work out for me eventhough I ditched parties and everything. But it's life, that just wasn't for me. There is still a life to be lived.

[@ChrisLevelsUp]

I’m going to stop overthinking and trust myself. There will always be ups and downs

[@samurayy55-i1y]

5 years and still comeback to this to remember only end is death and no failure other than death is experience.

[@Mr.Nogijiujitsu]

We gotta be able to accept our lives and move forward. Dwelling does nothing except incite regret

[@chrism1610]

That’s some excellent perspective. When you compared the person’s mistake other people’s mistakes, it resonated with me. I needed to hear that in this moment. Thank you.

[@YNS_bga]

Jocko is a prophet. Attened the live show in NYC 100% worth it. Humbling experience to meet one of my heroes in person. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 He took time to take pictures and sign autographs after the show too btw

[@costin_ilie]

This man has a great mentality, very inspiaring💪

[@leocmen]

In his words, Jocko is showing how a good family can be a grace, and still some don't value it. God, when I listen Jocko I understand Jordan Peterson, and I see how everything is connected.

[@davevaughn6293]

I so wish I would have had the chance to hear these things when I was 13 years old. Life has been good but could have been so much better. I learn something new everyday listening to your podcast.

[@andraskovacs6403]

You cannot know for sure if the outcome was really better would things have been different.

[@Mister19Eleven]

It's so easy to loose perspective. Ironic actually. I struggled for years dwelling on a personal/professional mistake that I blamed for eventually having to leave my past career. Was a one time shot that I blew. Funny thing is while I never got to be where I wanted with this limited window of opportunity, I was still a better person afterwards and had grown as a result of this failure. And even though that was years ago and every now and then it comes back to haunt my memory, I am still a better man now than I was prior to making that mistake. That said as long as you're continuously moving forward and growing that's all that matters. And it's so easy to forget that.

[@MaxIme555]

Great lesson Jocko. I invested in a real estate, so happened titles were fake and it was all a scam. It thought me a lesson, I take full ownership of my mistake and I keep thinking life could be worse! Love the podcasts!

[@kurtis6859]

This is Jockos world, we’re just living in it

[@MorrisChannel4]

Bingo! I been wanting to hear that answer. Dwelling on the past so you can learn from the mistake or failures.

[@ms.lesarenay9450]

Seeing this video tells me my first step is for once not beating myself up today. I dont know exactly how to heal but I think it's a healthy first step. I want to start looking at healing differently. Im getting up in my 30s and I really need to let this saga of failure go. This started from failing college and steming a long journey of failure along with it. Ive recently loss a great job and it kills me to know how much I tried. My issues with failure hung over me so much daily that in pure fear of potential accidents/mistakes would ultimately lead me into accidents and mistakes. The fear of being fired, or failing tests, or being ghosted out of things has really taken a toll on my life. Im starting to realize that fear, failure, guilt and shame all come together as a packaged deal and its been a vicious cycle of that going on in my life. I think i might actually write out my failures and then disect them so i can see and remember what i learned and gained from them. Sometimes i dont think about things until years later when they are laughable situations and all the anxiety is gone. All of a sudden you see lol. So im gonna start a small journey with myself and learn how to stop overthinking things and relating back to all my failed attempts in life.

[@robbyd1045]

I just want to say , jocko is awesome...... greatest motivational speaker ive ever heard.

[@Ltldrk]

I love this. I've had the opportunity to mentor new employees to my work who are also new to the industry, and I always try to explain to them (regardless of how bad) any problem that comes up is a learning chance. They felt bad one day because they set off the fire alarm in the office. I had to tell them "don't worry about it, let's continue. It's not worth worrying about" and it's true! We don't have time to worry about our mistakes. Learn from them, and Cary on. Do better.

[@Nklecz1980]

I had my dream job and a string of bad luck, bad decisions, and personal issues resulted in me quitting. I keep reliving and replaying everything that went wrong almost every day-4 years later. I have what 99% of folks would say is a far better job/career and STILL have been reliving /recanting that old job back. This segment and what he says really hit home. It’s about reframing and reflecting. It sucked and didn’t work out. It’s done. Learn from it and take that with you. Thanks

[@tonymcguckin1712]

Hits home, im so lucky that i have recovered from some of my mistakes. I cut it to close in years past. Trying to pay attention now. Now I get upset about losing money. Not ruining my life.

[@pedromedina93]

We need more people like jock in the world

[@superdani152003]

Much respect for you Mr Willink! Thank you for sharing your videos with us :)

[@GutsAndGlory734]

I needed to hear this right now at my current state….👍

[@will5x]

Man, I really needed that today. Thanks!

[@MoistNuggeteer]

I can recognize my mistakes and learn from them but when I fail at shit it eats away at me. It's probably my greatest weakness. When a mistake is all on me, and I'm not talking about Extreme Ownership, I mean when I really fuck something up, I feel horrifyingly insufficient. Lately with the help of media like this podcast I've been able to stop the avalanche of self abuse before it gets too bad. Just detach, bros. Focus on getting better.

[@jupiterjazz2805]

Easier said than done, but it’s the only course of action! I hear you!

Excellent question and advice!

[@kitsune303]

I've tried a lot of things in my life and failed at damn near every one. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. But when you miss 99% of the shots you DO take, you have to question whether you belong on the court. I just can't say 'good' and get past my failures any more. I'm not quite ready for the 115 grain debrief, but damn close. Can't see how to move on. I wish I had 1% of Jocko's resiliency.

[@zodiacconnection6310]

Keep going! I hope you see this message.

[@djeq721]

You do have resiliency, you're still going despite your failures. If you get to old age and still havn't made it (in whatever way that applies to you) at least you can say you never quit. If you're going through hell, keep going.

[@Sphereal]

[@Kiseochan]

Here because I screwed up. I froze up when it came to my school work and will likely fail 3 of my 4 classes considering I have 4 days left and half of all the work still undone. It would be physically impossible to write the amount of papers, 2 speeches, 2 final projects 4 math sections (with quizzes) and a final all before the 31st. Realistically I can pick one class. The school work isn't even THAT hard.. I just froze up because of anxiety and perfectionism... And now I feel so ashamed. I am having such a hard time accepting that I let this happen.

Nice. Failed Nursing School twice. Bugs me every day. Been 18 and 9 years. With all my credits I salvaged a bachelor's degree in science. A pyric victory at best. But I guess it is better than a pyric defeat. Now pushing 60. I see how lucky I am. Invested well. Never quit going to work. Coworkers said more than once unsolicited. Glad you are still here. Wife kicked me in the ass. How many people would kill for Honorable discharge from Military? Looking forward to enjoyable retirement. I just wish I could have shut off the defeat years ago.

Life is not worth it with no dreams to achieve.

[@skatermonkey1000]

For anyone who is struggling with life. I wanted to kill myself last year. It felt like I had demons in my brain manipulating my mind. I couldnt think clearly. I couldnt choose my thoughts they were being put into me. Everyday it got worse. I barely ate, barely slept, I was dying. My brain hurt, I was constantly getting light headed. The world didn't look the same anymore. It didnt matter how anything looked even if it was beautful, everything looked like hell but I didnt want it to. I wanted to help people, I always have but there was a constant opposition that wasnt coming from me, I couldn't fix my mind. I was afraid to trust God but I knew if I listened everything would be okay. I failed two semesters of college because of this. One of the few friends I had died and because of this problem I couldnt be the brother he always was to me while he was alive. Then my nephew got a really bad sickness. If he would have died I would have died. At the time I felt like I failed alot of people, because I did and I felt like I had failed him, I didn't feel like I deserved to live. It didnt feel right. I tried to fix my mind so I could do better in this life but it only got worse. God healed my nephew from a disease that should have killed him. Real authentic bible following Christians prayed in the name of Jesus and my nephew was healed. Even the doctor asked us if we believed in God because he said my nephew was alive by some miracle. I didnt kill myself because my nephew survived. I kept going but my mind was still messed up. I kept letting people down. Eventually I got fed up with myself. I got to the point that I didn't care what happened to me. I disregarded myself completely for the sake of others. Even though my mind was absolute hell I read the bible, I prayed and trusted God. The more time I spent with God the less, worry, hate, anger and paranoid I got. I learned to love people that I had no reason to love. I dont want to hurt people. The only reason I still do mma is for my coach that got killed. The last thing he told me before he died was that he couldnt wait to see me in mma, I feel like I have to fight, I know he didn't die for nothing, it wont be for nothing. Eventually my mind was free from all that hell, it took awhile only because I had a real hard time trusting in God but once I just let go and trusted God no matter what I became free from all that mental hell. I have mental clarity now. I have peace, I can breathe. I know alot of things in life dont make sense sometimes but I promise you there is life in Jesus. All of you matter. Dont listen to anyone who tells you that you dont. You are more than significant. theres a guy named dan mohler on youtube that explains the gosple of Christ very well, Look up Dan Mohler- what is our purpose
