D T integrity is being honest and having strong moral principles, character is purely what your moral principles are and weather what you do in life is inline with the social principles of your environment
There is no easy way...and there's only Discipline. And your answers to never look for short cuts, to not rely on emotions but your logic, and keeping in strong connections with body instead of mind.. These answers are all we needed. Thank you Jocko & Echo and everyone who came out on podcast show their vulnerable sides to tell us the message.
I believe a big thing to building character is honesty, honesty in dealing with others and dealing with oneself. Reading Jordan Peterson, I realized there is no difference between the two. Fail to be honest with yourself or others and your ability to be dishonest to others, and especially yourself increases.
Been making tough, risky decisions and positions at work. Necessary decisions, one's that others choose not to make for a long time. Been getting questioned, talked about, beat up. Past few weeks been tough. I needed to hear this. Thanks

Character is the symbol of your signature in the world. It represents the distinctive individuality that you have and by which you will be remembered. The sum of qualities and defects that you possess, and the various combinations in which these qualities and defects predominate your everyday actions and decisions define your character as a man. th-cam.com/video/FyptDqqiiow/w-d-xo.html
Captain Charlie Plumb is absolutely right!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, SIR!!! I realize that I cannot allow my hesitation and fear of what might happen when I do go to a psychiatrist's office on Thurs. December 28, 2017 to stop me from doing things to make my own life better. Starting ...RIGHT NOW!!! I bought the 3 books : Extreme Ownership: How US Navy SEALS Lead And Win by Jocko Willink and Lief Barin Discipline Equals Freedom: Field Manual by Jocko Willink A Novel WAY Of The Warrior Kid From Wimpy To Warrior The Navy SEAL WAY by Jocko Willink THANK YOU SO MUCH for writing those books, Jocko!!!!
I'm at work 30 minutes every day. I'm not actually working but I'm there in the parking lot. Waiting til shift start. Gives me a 30 minute window in case of flat tire or have to stop for feul
The wisdom that can be learned from this gentleman is astonishing. As a young man learning about himself and life it is greatly beneficial to learn from someone like this. Maybe more of my young generation should take to learn these skills and attitude.
Jason Y. Naparstek Shalom! I’m listening from Ottawa. Canada would benefit profoundly from Israeli style conscription! Generally speaking, our society is soft, spoiled, and unappreciative of Canada’s liberties.
SiempreChido Universal conscription and growing up under constant threat is the both the most stressful and beneficial part of life here. My sons are younger than ten years old and have already come close to both direct missle attacks and terror car rammings...but have the wherewithall to walk themselves to school in the middle of a city since the age of six (yes thats normal here).
Doing right is tough, it's easy to cop out and do bad things. Discipline is freedom for sure. I have to also define my boundaries in character but I know. Lying to myself is a cheat only to myself. Doing right is an ongoing discipline every second as you know. You just can't get lazy everyday on doing what's right.I fight for Unions because my life is tied to their survival, my pension, our pensions, my families pension. We have to fight for our "Right!" Don't RING THE BELL!!!!!!
Character is not complex thing you do the right thing always you do it for family, those things are easy things daily basis to improve health hard to do build your character leads to your character to being. Good character... Hard good character, do the right, the right thing is the hardest thing. Overcome everything get up get up get up getup never quit. When you get beat up last thing you wanna do is to get up and be forceful and those designs determine whether you live life well or not
Brother, Jocko, dear man, whenever you're blessed with being in the company of a solid person and warrior like Commander Plumb, then just listen.....he has the answers....you feel me? Thank you, Blessings and healings,,amen
Let’s be real you guys are not always doing the right things. It’s not your standards that always matter most. Being humble means to be submissive. Being Submissive doesn’t mean live up to the standards of someone else but it also doesn’t mean live up to your own set of rules without regard for others. To be submissive is to submit your ideas and standards and see how others receive them before making a decision. Ultimately its your life and your choices but we are not always right because we think we are.
Stop going backwards in my head I am not going there .My actions here, My present defines & builds my character. Every moment should be of new learning, building, experiences because living is dynamic, eternally forward , Not repetition. Don't build on what others are/do even if it's glittery. Be myself the gold I value
Define Character: Do I do the right thing for me,my family, my countries, regardless of consequences (Often hard , Discipline) How to Build it: do the right thing
I believe it boils down to living in alignment with your values. If you don’t live in alignment with your values (or,worse,don’t have any real values), you have no character.
If these are the rules, then a serial killer is doing the right thing for him/herself. So is a robber, rapist of any age, etc.! The "right thing" is very subjective, because if they knew the harm they are doing, then they won't do it, instead...
It was hell being jailed 6 months after being robbed & tortured. The other 3 odd years was pretty standard stuff. But i seen guys hang themselves after 2 weeks .
Some people think there doing the right thing while being completely wrong , so let's be carefull when we think we are doing the right thing . We kinda need a set of rules and principles that we can measure every situation to . Not just do what we think is the right thing
That's a misunderstanding based on people pointing out "he has character" when someone did right when non were meant to witness it. To me a character is a multitude of characteristics mixed together, usually in a unique way. Someone that is forward thinking, reflected, and hot headed, has a different character than someone that is forward thinking, reflected, and thick skinned. A character applies to circumstances, which means it doesn't change easily. Disregarding whether someone is looking or not if your character has the chracratrisitc to be forward thinking you will do so regardless. It seems to me, we have started defining people as having character only when they do what's dutiful. And that because people called out someone's character when their dutiful characteristics applied to their circumstances while the person couldn't have known to have witnesses to his actions. I think Jokos answer is honest but also not deeply reflected. We all have character. Cowardice, justifying, cunning, and naive can all be characteristics of a character. The question is how to properly cultivate characteristics that you want to be part of your character. Usually characteristics come about by your understanding of the world and natural neurological tendency. I subscribe to the idea that you can discover your character by observing yourself. Realizing that your reaction and actions in any circumstance are not the only ways to act and react just because you can't become aware of any other in the moment.
If snitching on someone evil, let’s say a gangster or the bully in high school, is considered the “right thing” would that be a character builder or just a bad decision that I made which will get me dead or beat up?
The only problem i have with this is that Jocko seems to be on a much much higher level than trump....Jocko is too good for that administration. If he were to join, he would go down a few pegs in my mind. Under a more truthful, respectable and smart leader..100% yes. Even if they are conservative...and I'm liberal.
@@mikeearls126 nah. Don't underestimate Trump. For his sector is very good. Everyone on his/her post. They both show some good levels of leadership and persistence
this might sound like a dumb question, but I am wondering how you would know that what you think is the right thing to do, actually is the right thing? what if it turns out I was wrong in what I thought was the right thing to do?
Base it off of suffering vs pleasure, at an equal starting point for all and maximizing the optimization for each towards well being as much as possible. Anyone who thoroughly understands and genuinely accepts this logical pain-mitigation strategy will not commit heinous acts.
I love Jocko. He is really a great man. I think that they didn't answer the question with a lot of thought. I think the question is how you help kids build character not grown adults. Grown adults are really difficult to change, and if you have the change mindset then you are more than half way there. This problem is how do you help kids build character. Jocko has the Way of the Warrior book, so the question is "How can we help kids build strong character when they don't want/like our help". Kids (like most adults) are averse to hardships. If you tell them to do a difficult thing, they will just not do it. There is the problem. How to show them that happiness comes from doing the difficult things and make them understand

Character is who you are when no one is looking.
I love your book Extreme Ownership, excellent read. Thanks Jocko and Leif
yes, what you DO when no one is looking

How does character differ from integrity?

Character building is the perseverance to strive forward in an effort to do what is right while things are going wrong. Just keep going

Because they lack character

There was a sign in my elementary school that said "Character is what you do when no one is looking."
My teacher said that it was integrity

Hard work, hard choices, hard situations - all build character. So expose yourself to such circumstances and push through. That's my take
Simply facts. Every young person should hear this 💡

Hi Jocko and Echo Charles,
Can you do a podcast on Miyamoto Musashi, please.
Thank you,

These guys are imesnse. Doing the right thing is the hardest tasks we ever undertake.
Trust in GOD to deliver you from troubles. The more you trust in other ways and peoples, the worst your problems will get.
Yes Trust in something that has no proof of existing.
Character is when you have power to do wrong but you don't even no one will know.
Great men sharing wisdom and strength with us. World needs more of this. Thanks Jocko
No Gucci Gang, and dumb personalities. These guys are the real role models.

The etymology of character is chisel. It's removal of your raw materials revealing you.
That's a misunderstanding based on people pointing out "he has character" when someone did right when non were meant to witness it.
To me a character is a multitude of characteristics mixed together, usually in a unique way. Someone that is forward thinking, reflected, and hot headed, has a different character than someone that is forward thinking, reflected, and thick skinned.

Stopped at 44 sec. character developments and on how you play the cards you been dealt.

I can do no wrong, for I do not know what it is.
Spot on.

Jocko, is there anymore to this conversation? Tks
It can be found in the description | Excerpt from Jocko Podcast 95.
Jocko, why you always look so mad?
"The right thing" to many is in reality subversive and destructive behavior.
Base it off of suffering vs pleasure, at an equal starting point for all and maximizing the optimization for each towards well being as much as possible. Anyone who thoroughly understands and genuinely accepts this logical pain-mitigation strategy will not commit heinous acts.

Well said
I love Jocko. He is really a great man. I think that they didn't answer the question with a lot of thought. I think the question is how you help kids build character not grown adults.

If you tell them to do a difficult thing, they will just not do it. There is the problem. How to show them that happiness comes from doing the difficult things and make them understand
Captain Charlie said it so well and true
❤️🇺🇲
You said, its tough,
Its hell.
Do you have a book for all this great information?
Yes. Check his bibliography.
Great stuff
And how do you know what THE "right thing" is? How do you know that it is not just your neurosis or indoctrination?
