Jocko is an intense character but I always feel motivated after listening to him talk for a few minutes. His podcast is great as well. Thanks for the feedback 🙂

I saw Jocko’s TedTalk and even though intimidating it reasonated with me. Didn’t even know he had written books or has a podcast. New stuff for me to learn!

Enough of this “woe is me” and victim mentality, it reigns true in the PF/FI community as well. How you respond and bounceback or take your situation into your own hands is what dictates your success. You’re the one in control, flip any of those moments of attrition into a learning experience or chance to improve.

Hoorah! Jockos 4:30AM kettlebell photos are also helpful motivation haha.

Off to tackle my own “good” now.

It’s a good mindset to have, this whole “everything is GOOD.”

Didn’t think about it like that. Will have to give it a try 🙂

thanks,
Jack

I like to think of Jocko’s “good” approach as a psychological trick to overcome obstacles. If you can say “good”, you make the obstacle less intimidating.

I’ve been meaning to read his book as well. He’s such an inspiration with his insane no-bullshit work ethic.
