JOCKO and Leif. Get some.
Motivation isn’t what we are relying on. Discipline is what enables us to do what we have to do.
Standing by to
Get It Done 🙏💪
Yessir
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The stock market rally run is gone, but I'm not sure if equities will swiftly recover, keep falling, or fluctuate in a narrow range for a few weeks, or if things will quickly get worse. I'm under pressure to increase my $150k reserve.
"Let discipline be your guide, not your emotions." Love it.
Love this ❤
Wow! I’ve never heard this before. It is absolutely true. That motivation is worthless. Discipline is all that matters. motivation always evaporates.
Thank you for your service to our country. Bless you for the continued service with teaching men the things we didn’t get for one reason or another. I don’t know where I would be right now without guys like you and Chad Wright, David Goggins. I’ve pieced myself back together with gaffer’s tape I got from watching all you guys.
“People get defeated by the alarm clock, people get defeated by a DONUT.”
I FEEL ATTACKED.
This was so "motivational" no sarcasm intended. "Discipline trumps your feelings." "You have something that needs to get done but you don't feel like doing it - doesn't matter." I love it! Thanks for life long lessons within a 14 minute frame.
Forrest Gump is my favorite movie for this one principle...he did not let intelligence or a belief get in his way. Just do it.
That was me growing up. I got tired of ending up in bad situations and decided to start thinking before acting
As a teacher I love reminding young people that "wanting to" is nor a requirement... do it anyway. Discipline is keeping myself to that same standard. Great stuff, gentlemen.
A true warrior isn't one who wins a thousand battles but he who battles himself and wins . Bless you Jacko ,i honour your words 🙏
Wow. Brilliant. True story: Ike while President was told by his doc that his 3 pack a day cig habit was killing him. He quit that day. A reporter asked how he did it. “I gave myself an order to stop.” He never smoked again.
By far, one of the most important videos I've seen you men put out. Thank you both.
Discipline is the root of all good qualities. Thank you for your support.
Bullseye over the target. I have abused my freedom. Back into the water, I go.
Get back on the Path of Discipline. That's how you can unlock more freedom
@@EchelonFrontBible?
Holy hell Jocko. . . Thank you
@@CarlosVerdinOfficial what
@@EchelonFront Yes, Sir! I just saw this reply. My procrastination is shameful. Honored for the reply.
Hey I am reading your book "Extreme Ownership" and I am loving it.
You got me at the gym at 4am every morning, discipline get's you there not motivation. I love the analogy of the General and Soldier in your mind.
Right on. The General is getting you to the gym, but you are the Soldier who has to enact that discipline and get the workout done. Keep getting after it.
I've never been in a combat situation, but I remember sleeping in a park at 17 after escaping home where I was trafficked for 5 years.
To survive, I walked into local small businesses and asked to write articles for their blog for $20. It was hard to survive, and I did not want to do what it took because I was scared. But I did it anyway and relied on the discipline to keep going.
That and spite.
Now at 33, I'm still a content writer and strategist, and I remind myself when I don't feel like doing the work that sending cold emails to potential clients and executing my marketing strategy are not on the same level as what I had to do before and I need to grow up and just do it.
I'm beyond grateful for owning my own business and get to live on my own terms, and I know if I want to keep it, I need to do the work.
It's also why I got addicted to being backed against the wall in life -- because that's my do-or-die situation where I'm forced to take action. Fear becomes irrelevant, and the brain fog clears. It's harnessing this fierceness in the comfortable times.
This makes a lot of sense. Developing discipline is psychological power, this is good mental input.
I followed my feelings my whole life and because of that I was stuck for many years, or even decades. I was a slave of myself and that's truly a really awful situation, you're consumed by guilt and regret and you feel like a fool, a failure, a good for nothing... but the only one responsible for that is YOU and your lack of self-control, discipline, a strong mentality. Those will always be essential in everybody's life.
I'm still fighting my own mental war, sometimes I lose some battles and sometimes I win others, but the most important thing is to not give up and keep striving to improve and become a better version of yourself.
We should acknowledge our feelings, but if we only listen to how we feel, we will end up down a path of self-indulgence. Discipline is what will give us true freedom to do and get what we want.
I am just a volunteer firefighter, however when u are called out you burn a ton of energy in all types of conditions. I need to be a lot more fit, this truly hit me with a wow just use my discipline!! Thanks a lot!!!
You brothers are the best and you self fund!!! VFD is just another branch of service. It's the firefighter that goes "over the top" for a rescue. *Salutes*
@@hounddog3476 Appreciate ya for sure 👊
Real ”motivation” is staying true and doing things that will give you what really want. Get after it👌 Great job Guys🤩
i have been so tired and discouraged that i felt defeated, i started listening to motivational videos and i would listen to them every night and use them to help me have reason to not give up, and i would say those reasons to myself throughout the day
because i did not give up i developed discipline
that is the only thing that confuses me about your argument, i am not disagreeing with you exactly, but i was so tired and discouraged that i was giving up and the motivational videos the words they said were guidence and strength and I don't think i would have continued without them
10 years i dragged myself through constant work and loss, i though I would never come out
Understand completely. Just discovered these vids.
Congratulations
All the videos do is remind u that the key is discipline just like the seals who fail by going to clubs life has so many distraction
Motivation is overrated,
Discipline is the key
Right on. Discipline equals freedom.
Discipline over motivation.
Mindset over circumstance.
You need to be motivated to become disciplined to become disciplined.
I didn't want to listen to this podcast, but I did it anyway.
Discipline Equals Freedom.
Motivation is an emotion which comes and go's, Discipline is a character trait. Always be disciplined and you will find the motivation when you need it.
This hits the nail on the head!
I’m inspired by both Jocko and Leif! Just bought an Extreme Ownership hat from the Echelon front website! Discipline Equals Freedom.
Jocko and his video's about discipline helped me to get trough a lot in life. The books were very good as well. Thanks for the video #Staydisciplined #keepuptheGOODwork
Discipline,dedication,& desire,3D's of life kudos for a great session.
Thx so much for a great video, I will be from this day forward working on my discipline thx again 😊
Excellent points. I think I will implement this tomorrow.
Motivation has a place.
Inspiration- By Action or Words = minutes to hours to be motivated to create a plan to be valued.
Motivation- Create a Plan= Time/Cost/ROI. Minutes to 48hrs to for basics of value. The plan can vary depending on new info.
Discipline- Without discipline A Plan is just words on paper.
A friend from China was talking to an American neighbor woman, and the neighbor told her that their kid was not doing well in math (high school) because "...she doesn't like it..." . My friend was appalled, "What does not liking it have to do with anything?"
The message was loud and clear: just get the job done!
This is absolute gold
Awsome!!!!
Thanks for watching.
GREAT video 🥊
No motivation but still got that that's above on the ehchelon on the beat man I really wanted to pursue that which is on other players
This sounds like something I heard before, but explained another way. The Three Hats. Or something along those lines. You have the entrepreneur, the manager, and the employee.
The Entrepreneur creates the ideas sets the table.
The Manager takes the idea and create a process so it can function.
The Employee turns the gears in that process.
The employee hates the manager thinking they can do a better job. The manager hates the entrepreneur who freely tweaks and changes the process. And the entrepreneur is always making changes to improve the process or the business. And sometimes we have to wear all 3 hates in our minds.
Discipline is king. 💪🏻😎👍🏻
THE FORCE flows through Jocko
He explains how to be a force of nature
By harnessing nature itself
It is THE very power of WILL
The spaces that occupy every atom of your body and make up almost all of it
You my friends
Are the makeup of pure WILL
A FORCE THAT TRANSCENDS SPACE AND TIME
AND JOCKO
Just reaches out and grabs it❤
This is why gyms are packed in January and empty in February. However discipline is learned, it's not something most people can just flip on like a switch. And most people don't have it. So the question is, how do you learn discipline?
Start small, get some little wins, recognize the dopamine hit, feel accomplished, get encouraged by it, aim a little higher, rinse and repeat.
Discipline begets more discipline. The more discipline you enact on yourself - getting the workout in or waking up early - the more discipline you will accomplish throughout the day. If you get off the path and miss a workout in one day, don't let it become two and keep moving forward.
@@ryancairns139 Spot on. Get some small wins that will inspire you to achieve bigger goals.

What really built it for me is simply do things when you don't want to do them. When you have a rough day at work and don't want to hit the gym is when it's most important to hit the gym. That's what builds the discipline.
Discipline is the motivation. One personally witnesses the evidence and results that discipline creates. Discipline defines ones character by delaying gratification for an improved end result. But discipline can blind one to discernment ie: the fact that what the military is ultimately doing is creating mind controlled robots who never question the principles being disciplined out of them. The idea that following orders and commands that very well may violate conscience, is paramount. Discernment combined with discipline is the key so that one knows that one's actions motivated by discipline is right and not wrong.
Discipline == freedom 🔥 🔥
Self Discipline is the best Motivation
Warrior mindset
it works
Taking directives from head quarters is following necessity because you have too.
Head quarters is head(frontal lobe)and shoulders above the rest for paradoxically the same have to reasons.
Discipline is doing the same(directives) while easily predicting outcomes.
Mercenary and missionary work are heavy as duty and real as spontaneous healing.
❤ Love it Jocko. Chiming in here with some Dwayne Johnson brilliance…. “ IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU FEEL.” … Jabone 😂💪🏻💪🏻👁️
I found myself @ PARADE REST while listening - HOOAH
💯💯💯
Thank you for your service!
so ghey
Damn😮thats just a bunch of facts
lol, is it?
"Discipline protects you from temptation"
I noticed the 20 min. while riding motorcycle in the cold. Just gotta let the body adjust a bit.
Good
Always the right mindset.
Jocko, Can you and the team do a segment on the proper way to implement changes? What is necessary when implementing a change in a process, and why? What is the proper way to handle a situation when a change is implemented in a way that doesn't have your full buy in?
I work at a manufacturing plant and we implement changes pretty frequently, but you don't hear about the change until it's time to implement them. There is no chance for feedback. People make changes without authority or knowing the process in other departments, only consider how it it's going to benefit them, despite it having an effect on everyone. Animosity builds and communication degrades.
Great question. Change is absolutely necessary to innovate and improve, but it's our human nature to avoid or limit these changes. We'll work on creating content around your specific topic. In the meantime, we recommed reading the chapter of Extreme Ownership, "Innovate and Adapt"
@@EchelonFront Yes sir
Fascinating and also sad.
Why sad? It’s reality.
Woopsie, feelings are creeping in. Call it "adulting" if you must have some humor, whatever works.
-"YOU CAN DO IT."
-"Don't lie to me, I know I can't."
Notice there was no mention of USAF boot camps..off camera whisper 'Psst, whattabou' PJs?..return whisper, 'PJs ain't Chair Force'..
Ouch but powerful truth get some

🤘
Writers have a saying; “Amateurs write when they’re inspired. Professionals write daily.” It doesn’t matter if you write garbage, you write nonetheless. That’s discipline.
My personal discipline level is a burning dumpster fire, floating down a river of **** but I’m working on it… sort of. God help me, I’ve had zero discipline my whole life.
Motivation is like salt on my steak. Just adds flavor.
To sum up "a man's got to do what a man's got to do"
Thank you. These principles were set by God years ago
Zero people in that class want to get back in the water. Because Goggins isn't in that class.
Which makes me wonder if motivation exist because he (Goggins) gets off on hard conditions. It’s paradise to him😂
Lmao, thank you for that ....🤣
he doesnt want it too, thats why he do it
I think that is the best and most important lecture. Bottom line.
Discipline Will Set You Free. -Jocko
I think you will find it's an abundance of money that will set you free.
Trump’s voice + Jocko’s voice = Leif Babin’s voice 😂
As Vader and Schwarzenegger said, “You lack discipline!”
Self-discipline is Self-control
no they are two different things, not mutually exclusive. You can have self-control without discipline and vice versa.
Get some
I have been going to school for CS and found that tenacity and hard work do not come from inspiration they come from the need to succeed and the want for bettering yourself rather than the pleasure of doing it within itself. So when you make yourself do something like complex math and you don’t want to do it you remember that the outcome ie more money having a comfortable life and a good job is enough to force yourself to be motivated. Also focusing on people who are worse than yourself is important and setting your expectations as low as possible and seeing yourself as being bad at it. Both things cause you to work harder.
The only valuable comment so far. Well done for not kissing their boots like everyone else.
The motivation is passing seal training.. that’s why they “do 100% what they don’t want to do” he made it sound like it comes from nothing..
Hes made a video on why your "why" is stronger than motivation. He's talking about the pumped feeling you get that isn't there every day. He's not saying he didn't have a why. He's saying even if you do have a why , some days you'll absolutely not want to do it or partake in it. But you have to.
Fear overcome by duty (=discipline)…
Unfortunately, we are in a world where people are consumers!
Your comment makes no sense. The whole point of society is to consume! did you not know this?
@@wealthypepe gotta acquire other people's stuff and consume all the universes crap and always buy gold
. However, if you can stea... I was and to say steal it.. but acquire is not against the law.
good.

Motivation will abandon you hurt and cold and 11 miles away from getting back to your destination
no it won't. Unless you let it. These guys talk a lot of nonsense that people lap up. It's not discipline or motivation, it's the will to power.
@@wealthypepe well there really is no such thing as motivation. It doesn’t last long because yes it truly has to be backed by the Will. So when motivation loses its flare you only have grit or memories in your soul and muscle to carry you through that you built with discipline
I get what he's saying but the way it comes off smacks of macho-man posturing, and a failure to understand that there is no 'no'.
He IS motivated. Motivated to show himself and the world that you don't need motivation. Motivated to get the job done at all costs, to beat the program, to do his job to a superhuman ability.
There is a buddhist koan, "Who is it who knows that there is no ego?"
Same thing applies here.
How would a civilian with little self discipline, teach themselves to be this disciplined?
Disiplin hanya untuk tentara, polisi dan para pelajar. Motivasi hanya untuk juara. 😊😊😊. Beda rasa dan perjuangan
Tap in to discipline discipline is freedom not feelings forget your feelings. Motivation doesn't matter it isn't apart of the program. Wet cold miserable motivation is worthless. You are going to do things that you 100 percent do notwant to do. It is what it is follow the general get back in the water in the cold the motivation is 0 negative 9 motivation doesn't matter what matters is discipline that you going to execute what your being told to execute. Your emotions didn't matter your worries dint matter what matters is discipline what protects you is discipline. We are not relyin on motivation it doesn't exist we tapinto discipline. Negative 9 beastie 12 negative 1000 didn't matter because we will do. Turn on discipline you have to have discipline feel like your diving. You don't have it because your motivated you do it because your discipline. General logic in your mind abd you are the the General and tou the solider have to do that. If people don't obey orders . Train the solider to obey those direct orders when they come and rhat it is discipline. You are the General if the general isn't being obey if the solider don't follow everything will fall apart get up 6:30.
Whose gonna carry the boats!! Lol
🙆♀️🙆♀️🙆♀️
1:48 Drinking energy drinks is not good for your health. It can even lead to being slightly maniacal with delusions of discipline. Sir, yes, Sir 🫡
As you were. Just chill for a moment. Breathe. 🧘♂️
Yeah, but donuts, I have 2 donuts once a month. I could have it more often. I manage a market, so I'm around it every day, and they smell fantastic some days, but I limit what I can have. Otherwise, I'd be Gomer fatbody.

Bull shite
Got enough product placement on the table there, girls?
Fucking LOL
I disagree.
Motivation is important. Motivation is what starts the movement. Motivation is the spark or inspiration.
Motivation can carry on for some time, not forever. Can't say motivation is nothing.
Without motivation, there is no starting point. Motivation is that enthusiastic starting push.
Also, motivation is recyclable in times of need. Sometimes discipline isn't enough by itself, it needs a little more spark from motivation to keep going during crappy times.
Motivation is... A Lie?
It's for a weaklings at the end of a day.
But your a motivational speaker
Get training to make PEACE in a high level
Actually it's admiral (and not general) in the Navy but that doesn't change the message :)
I can smell the sarcasm of navy personnel from over here. 😂❤
If you. Tell a. Person they can do it. They. Must. Want. It. Deep inside. I. Told. David. To. Get it. On. But. He. Wsnted it. Badly. Bob13
Motivation is worthless 🙆♀️
no it's not, it's extremely valuable.
That's so f upp
Its fake yes
Money motivates, so this is crap !
This guy has alot of bullshit.
Motivation is a Lie?
Dude.. then why are there so many religious people who go to church to listen and believe in what a Manipulating Con Artist Motivational Speaker says?
You know.. Preachers and Pastors?😮😅😊😢😂
and SEALS shilling product and their bullshit theories
I gotta disagree with this premise. Motivation is just the reasons you have, or the “motivating forces”you have, to do something. You have reasons why you want to achieve a goal and you often do shit you may not feel like doing to get there because you’d RATHER do it than fail. You pretty much always choose to do what you want to do MORE. So when you carried the boat at 3am, it was because you wanted to carry it more than you wanted to get kicked out of BUDS. You had a choice: carry the boat and remain in training, don’t carry it and be kicked out. You wanted to continue on more than you wanted to quit the program. This desire to become a seal was the motivating force that led you to carry the boat. In other words, you were motivated to carry it by the knowledge that refusal would mean the failure of achieving your goal.
In this same way, we are motivated to exercise and choose our food wisely by the knowledge that if we don’t, we will stop achieving gainz and / or become miserable fatasses. This motivation pushes us to go to the gym even when we don’t always want to.
I think sometimes motivation and inspiration are confused.
I see what you are saying, he is more talking the difference between motivation and discipline.
Every person that goes to a Special Forces or SEAL school and selection is highly motivated, highly capable.
Motivation is not enough though, they still have a high washout rate. And his point is, on days you do not feel motivated...discipline is what gets it done.
If you only worked out when you are 'motivated to do it' or when you have a choice to do it or not as you say...even if it is the better option - then you would work out like 5 times a year. Whereas discipline will make you do it more days a year than motivation.
Highly motivated people quit all the time.
I hate working out. I dont wanta do it. I do it now to check a box...thats discipline. I cant quit this after 20+ years
The decision was already made. Now determination to continue. Motivation was part of the decision.
Jocko and leif pretending to be good seals and heros is a lie
How so?
@@markmalhiot5263 watch the anti-hero podcast about them. They Marines and seals have something to say about these guys making money off being "heroes"
I'll save you the 14 minutes... you must have discipline.
Don't save me from the speech
