I've been a Christian the majority of my life (35+ yrs.), and I've gotten more from the few months that I've been listening to these podcasts on serving/leading, discipline, etc. than in all the years of sitting under ministers in all the churches I've attended. Keep up the awesome work!
Education in this country is primarily a communist system. Most schools are not only run by the government, their teaching methods and administrative policies are centrally planned by the federal government. Any industry that is governmet-run and centrally planned will produce horrendous results. There is no innovation and improvement over time in the education sector, there is only deterioration in quality and increase in cost. Now, if education was a free market system, schools would compete, the best schools would adopt the most effective practices and succeed, the schools that failed their students would go out of business. Incompetent teachers would be fired and salaries would be based on performance/results. Thus, remarkable teachers like Jaime Escalate would get paid the most and would be wildly emulated.
@@thejurassicchicken1190 seriously. This dude acts like public education hasn’t been good in practice. Obviously this guy believed in vouchers. I think in theory it’s great but in practice sucks ass. I think more money should be put into education. I am fundamentally against private school though. I live in LA where there are a ton of private schools. Most spend 10-25k a year. Kid. If you ask me it just separates kids from local residents and instills whatever religious beliefs
Made me think of something I read recently: "The man without a purpose is a man who drifts at the mercy of random feelings or unidentified urges and is capable of any evil, because he is totally out of control of his own life." Ayn Rand (from an interview with Alvin Toffler)
I've listened to this 4 times on my gym sessions. Had to come watch it on the youtube because it's my favorite episode to date. Powerful stuff. I'm adapting my own evaluation form because I can't wait for this epicness!
This is incredible. It made me think about how much work I have to do before I can be eminently qualified - especially as a mentor. The most powerful aspect to me is that the highest levels of accolade are a function of the subordinates' performance and the far-reaching impacts beyond one's own direct sphere of influence. Listening to this episode of the podcast would benefit any person, but it should be required listening for any parent, coach, manger, leader, etc.
Great Podcast Jocko and Echo. I've been slowly getting myself back into working out after 8 months out of action. Today I was going to play a video game on my PC but instead I finished this podcast (had 30 mins left) while walking. Got some blood flowing and learned a lot. Thanks Jocko and Echo!
I listened to the podcast first....and ONLY watched this video to see the expression on Echo’s face when he explained his Super Mario performance. Love it!
I am a PE teacher and I use RUBRICS. This is a great episode for that. A few years ago my co teacher introduced the Super Mario analogy for how to rate yourself on our rubric. The kids can really relate to it and the would all understand echo . So I really like Echo’s example. Thank you Mr. Echo sir.
I decided to quit drinking and smoking last Monday. I was inspired by hearing Jocko say discipline is freedom. It’s going extremely well. I’m inspired by this evaluation and would like to use a daily version of this for my personal evaluation of my day which I’m doing each evening. I’ll look on my own, of course, but if anyone can direct me at where I can find this evaluation I’d appreciate it. Thanks Jocko and all the supporters here.
Good evening comrades Jocko and Echo this is a GOOD episode, one to listen to often. Echo debriefing Jocko on Super Mario Brothers was epic. @Jocko "The Pursuit of Excellence" Thank you guys
Your comments and wisdom,are really great stuff ,I'm 53 country guy, have watched old war movies and documentary on different conflicts, not for the glory of war,but what guys had to go through, it really gets you moving, grew up in the mountains of north Carolina, my brother and I ran a trap line ,and would go check it before school. Shooting and hunting was just normal stuff.he died in 1985, have had a spoke missing since, listen to soe podcast, when you hear other dudes saying stuff that you have also thought, it's a positive interaction, I also had my favorite stick for rifle, having a imagination as a kid,your able to solve problems later in life.instead of being programmed and afraid of making mistakes .and doing nothing .
As someone in the corporate world, this was one of the best and most relate-able episodes yet. If you developed a program for someone to become an "imminently qualified human being" I would buy it and use it immediately.
"Some people don't understand the METRIC"..."If you don't have anything to aim at...you're never going to hit the target." Dropping WISDOM. This is something not enough companies/systems/industries either take for granted or don't understand. Bravo boss.
Gentlemen, thank you. I'm currently and have always been overweight and under motivated. Recently, I'm aiming to improve. This podcast in particular has crystallized the concept of standards within my mind. I'll go get "it" now. Have a great day.
This may be my favorite episode. I needed this opportunity to reflect on my performance in life. My self-evaluations will be more thorough and standardized going forward. I realized I set high standards, or no standards. So if I don't set clear standards for something, then I'll subconsciously ignore it because I don't honor it enough for standards in the first place.
Ive gotten something useful from every jocko podcast ive listened to but this one by far the best. A lot of practical wisdom for us non military citizens.
I lost my father a year and a half ago. I have lost 6 other family members in the past 3 years, 2 very recently. I have lost 3 friends to overdose in the last year. I am glad I have Jocko as a role model. I will never give up and I will always Get some!!! This life is an amazing experience. We are truly blessed to be where we are. Live an extraordinary life. It is possible just remember it takes discipline.
Damn. Just damn. This is some really GREAT ways to implement direction and improvement in life as a whole! Please send the evaluation checklist you put together for becoming an emminently better human being when you get it all squared! Thanks again for the mentorship Jocko and echo charles!!!
One of the best of your podcasts I've seen. Thank you. I started a list last week of three things to do better each week. I want to create habits that improve. Each week I will add other tasks to the list. If a great idea comes to my attention before the addition, it goes on the list. You're a motivator. Get some.
I'm an Army Combat Vet, and now business owner. Let me tell you, after reading that document you read, the "Marine Corps Fitness Report", I have such a higher respect and understanding for Marines. So, I'm taking action: I'm interpreting, converting, and implementing this document into SOP for my company and employees. I'm raising the whole bar, starting exclusively with me. Most importantly, "Inflationary markings only serve to dilute the actual value of each report. Reviewing Officer will NOT concur with inflated reports". Thank you to the USMC and to the both of you for providing this value and motivation. Solid. Shit. Stand by to Get Some!
This episode is immeasurably useful in helping you realize how intense you need to be when setting standards for yourself and holding yourself accountable. But seriously, what really got me: At some point in the episode (1h 30 min), things get so intense that suddenly, Jocko has a knife in his hand. That cracked me up! Get after it people.
While this system, like all systems, does get worked around at times (especially during work ups and deployments) it is absolutely essential to understanding where the bar is and what the expectations are of your performance. I completely forgot about this document, and I am looking forward to the system Jocko and Good Deal Dave design around it
Praise Jesus! Thanks Jocko! Salutations highest standards of the U.S. military! This is exactly what I needed to know to take life to another level. With the doctrine of Jesus the Sermon On The Mount and the Marine Corps evaluation document learnings I will aspire to become a great man from a good man. Ya'll are gettin some I want to get some to!
This is one of his best podcast....it exanded into other Jockopodcast and even a book, "The Code" w Dave Burke.....it amazes me that most company's don't use reviews effectively.....My company is too greedy to even do them. It takes brutal honesty and action to make it an effective tool. The company will grow and it will set a culture. Good company's use them the right way to pay their employees more money when they reach a standard. It's a form of collecting data in your work force, but only effective with 100% honesty a relationship.
True excellence. I give Jocko a 5.0 on meaningful action, seeking truth, refinement and study. Jocko exhibits and inspires many of the best attributes of humanity and manhood. I'll eagerly await your completed write up of the Eminently Qualified Human; however, I fear this may turn in to a book and could be delayed. In the mean time I'll be getting after it on the fundamentals outlined today. Thank you.
The University I went to worked like this too. They didn't *have* to mark on a bell curve, but my profs said *if* they turned in student grades that didn't form a bell curve, they had to write a lengthy essay explaining why that was the case. Of course, no one wants to write an essay they can avoid, so student grades always formed a perfect bell curve.
JOCKO: for the Eminent Qualifications list how about: 1. A PDF to download/print/save on the phone, and 2. An app? It seems like a natural progression for your business. Advertisers/links can be Origin/Irish Oaks Ranch/Flipside Canvas, etc. You could have a tab connecting for shopping to get gear from the store to represent. Links to Victory MMA, BJJ websites, etc. an “all-in-one” shop. You could also have daily tasks and goals like Todoist (or partner with them) and achievements like Garmin. I have enjoyed both of those recently, as I build habits in getting my daily steps in/earning achievements for working out vs. the PlayStation, and organizing my day so I can more effectively prioritize and execute and put in my PT as priority one. Good luck, I know you can make it happen and that it would greatly benefit your business and all the people following. I greatly appreciate your time, attention, and thoughts into the matter.
Unmitigated discipline everyday. I think that check list idea for "The Eminently Qualified Human Being" is a great project. Imagine looking at that at the end / beginning of each day and evaluating yourself.....Get Some!
Tom Fleming that’s the exact project I want to start working on. Happy to share with everyone once I finish V1. Any idea where can I find the forms Jocko is reading? Haven’t been able to find them on my own yet.
I'm starting a new job soon and I sent my future boss an email with a PDF of the USMC Fitness Report stating that I use this document as a way to keep my professionalism tip top.
The beginning hit me and I have to comment before I finish watching because that 4.0 system directly retarded my future growth and I believe that is what is happening in society today. I was in boot camp 3 days after my 17th Bday. Been a troubled child, the old man couldn't handle me anymore and a bunch of other problems, but I can honestly say this day was a great day in my life. Throughout boot, I was 4.0 for the most part, but I was in Triple Threat on the drill team, and a Div MAA, so I sat in the cage on the second floor a lot and cleaned empty units for the next company coming in while guys were doing the mundane stuff. I still had to do mandatory stuff like drill practice, did parades and what have you, but It was easier in way. But guys did fail, and get set back a week or even discharged because they just couldn't do the physical stuff, which really wasn't hard but for some of the guys with weight issues, it was. Obesity is big now, not so much then, 1981. Then I went to OS A school in VA and was 3.8 to 4 which seemed fine to me. I finished 3rd in my class Then I hit the fleet. I got to pick my assignment for finishing high and I picked the USS Constellation CV 64 as I had watched a movie where a carrier went back in time and watching Tomcats flying on and off a ship was awesome and indeed it was...for a month. LOL I was lucky enough to get there just in time to do 90 days in the IO, another great time, 8 on, 8 off, not counting drills....but throughout, 3.8-4.0 sailor, everyone doing their job. Then we hit ports. First for me was Perth Australia, went out had fun, actually saw some sites, then Singapore, had made a few new friends in other divisions, drank more and as a young guy, almost hooked up with a trans not knowing it, was saved by a buddy. Then went to PI and my world that I had been in previously came back. The new friends I had made, that had been there before, showed me the ropes. Booze, drugs, and women. I had always loved the first 2 but still had not been with a woman and the guys thought that should be fixed. Long story short, that day defined me for a long time after. I did not enjoy that ( I am married and love women, just not using them, I am weird that way) At any rate, I became a slacker, I started going back to my old ways, stole a buddy's ninja and crashed it, said oh well, and all the while guess what? I was still rated 3.8-4.0. Got in a fight with a couple petty officer folks, went to mast and I did end up getting kicked to the curb after the second time, and rightly so, still under honorable conditions general discharge. Heres what I learned in all this at the time. No matter what I did I was great until something drastic happens, THEN you are a problem. THEN AIDs came along. Remember the hype when it was first going around. It can lie dormant for 10 years and the rest. Famous folks dying and all I could think of was I was with a woman, unprotected in PI....what if? Thankfully nothing came of it, but from that time on NOBODY can peer pressure me into something. Whether that is believing or doing something if I do it, I own it, and that includes all my previous failures I like the 5-star system. I like a system where you can learn that compared to others there MAY be room for improvement or at least having folks around you that can fill in those gaps. We should know our weaknesses. This system may have made me more aware of my weaknesses and showed me my strengths by highlighting what I was doing right rather than saying I am an all around great sailor and though I ended up living my life this way, it was through trial and error and maybe while I was being told how 4.0 I was that I was told here is the structure of becoming a great sailor and this is how we rate it and you can improve through it, maybe, I could have avoided becoming the old idiot I was before I joined and be a lifetime member like several of my buddies were. Unfortunately, I see the services going backward on the whole, even special services
Gday jocko and echo Thanks for the life changing information, i have a question regarding evaluation. What is your opinion on getting subordinates to evaluate their leaders? See you all in Sydney. Cheers Ryan
WHERE CAN I FIND THE FORMS that are mentioned in this episode? I’d really like to incorporate them into my personal evaluation process. Thank you to anyone who can direct me.
Here's a link to the pdf www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=dmna.ny.gov/forms/naval/NAVMC_10835__EF__5334.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwji7uCp8fjhAhXVHjQIHVv-CS8QFjADegQIARAB&usg=AOvVaw2sUGS5OUw2ITz3NhS1EfQK
Anthony Morielli I’m looking for these forms also. I will let you know if I’m able to find them or if someone directs me to them. Please do the same and alert me if you find this information. Thank you.
Been awhile, 30 years, since I was a Marine. But I remember problems with that 5 scale grading system. It seems that nobody wanted to grade their subordinates anything less than a 4.6. I think the problem is that it didn't have enough stratifications. Rather than five, there should be 10 to account for people who were real screw-ups. So when you get a 5 out of 10 you know you're doing okay.
I am in the middle-to-end of medical school right now, and these are very relevant standards for the work that we as (future) doctors are doing, next to the CanMEDS framework we follow in medicine. Is there a pdf file of these standards which are shareable perhaps?
I've uninstalled all my videogames... It is my one weakness that once I start I can't stop. I'm embarrassed because I had the problem growing up and its been encroaching on my life now that I'm in college. I want to stop the STOP START STOP START problem where I get back into the bad habit. Before you know it I am wasting 5 hours a day, my mind is fried and I start eating crap. Jocko it would be awesome if you could do an episode on why games are bad for you and why you should give them up for good, I know the reasons already but if I have a sound record of you telling me and others to stay free it would really help me out a ton. Thanks.
I just purchased the Molk DARKNESS!!! Question...I tore up my shoulder, bicep, labrum, etc. My flexibility is ahead of schedule because I'm gettin' after it. Will the Krill Oil be enough or should Joint Warfare find its' way in there? Lastly, had dinner and washed it down with Jocko White Tea. Dude!!! This podcast is slowly creeping in to every aspect of my life. Definitely NOT a bad thing. Carry on.
Thats what the stoic philosophers do.. they journal at the end of the day and they write on: what did I encountered today? Did I respond or did I react it ? What did I do today to get me closer to my goal? have I noticed anything that distracted me of my goal? etc
Hey Jocko I really enjoy the podcast I listen to it every morning to get mr prepared for the day. Just a thought for a new guest, how about Commander Rorke Denver
New podcast just before I wanted to sleep. Do I watch? No, I go to bed to get up early tomorrow to GET AFTER IT.
See you guys tomorrow.
WeirdMicky 5.0 right there.
I agree my friend. I'm up at 4:30a.m to get After it, then I'll watch Podcast.
Wow! What a terrific podcast. I'm now working on becoming a 5.0 "The Eminently Qualified Husband and Father".

I was in boot camp 3 days after my 17th Bday. Been a troubled child, the old man couldn't handle me anymore and a bunch of other problems, but I can honestly say this day was a great day in my life.
Throughout boot, I was 4.0 for the most part, but I was in Triple Threat on the drill team, and a Div MAA, so I sat in the cage on the second floor a lot and cleaned empty units for the next company coming in while guys were doing the mundane stuff. I still had to do mandatory stuff like drill practice, did parades and what have you, but It was easier in way.
But guys did fail, and get set back a week or even discharged because they just couldn't do the physical stuff, which really wasn't hard but for some of the guys with weight issues, it was. Obesity is big now, not so much then, 1981.
Then I went to OS A school in VA and was 3.8 to 4 which seemed fine to me. I finished 3rd in my class
Then I hit the fleet. I got to pick my assignment for finishing high and I picked the USS Constellation CV 64 as I had watched a movie where a carrier went back in time and watching Tomcats flying on and off a ship was awesome and indeed it was...for a month. LOL
I was lucky enough to get there just in time to do 90 days in the IO, another great time, 8 on, 8 off, not counting drills....but throughout, 3.8-4.0 sailor, everyone doing their job.
Then we hit ports. First for me was Perth Australia, went out had fun, actually saw some sites, then Singapore, had made a few new friends in other divisions, drank more and as a young guy, almost hooked up with a trans not knowing it, was saved by a buddy. Then went to PI and my world that I had been in previously came back. The new friends I had made, that had been there before, showed me the ropes. Booze, drugs, and women. I had always loved the first 2 but still had not been with a woman and the guys thought that should be fixed.
Long story short, that day defined me for a long time after. I did not enjoy that ( I am married and love women, just not using them, I am weird that way)
At any rate, I became a slacker, I started going back to my old ways, stole a buddy's ninja and crashed it, said oh well, and all the while guess what?
I was still rated 3.8-4.0. Got in a fight with a couple petty officer folks, went to mast and I did end up getting kicked to the curb after the second time, and rightly so, still under honorable conditions general discharge.
Heres what I learned in all this at the time. No matter what I did I was great until something drastic happens, THEN you are a problem.
THEN AIDs came along. Remember the hype when it was first going around. It can lie dormant for 10 years and the rest. Famous folks dying and all I could think of was I was with a woman, unprotected in PI....what if?
Thankfully nothing came of it, but from that time on NOBODY can peer pressure me into something. Whether that is believing or doing something if I do it, I own it, and that includes all my previous failures
I like the 5-star system. I like a system where you can learn that compared to others there MAY be room for improvement or at least having folks around you that can fill in those gaps. We should know our weaknesses. This system may have made me more aware of my weaknesses and showed me my strengths by highlighting what I was doing right rather than saying I am an all around great sailor and though I ended up living my life this way, it was through trial and error and maybe while I was being told how 4.0 I was that I was told here is the structure of becoming a great sailor and this is how we rate it and you can improve through it, maybe, I could have avoided becoming the old idiot I was before I joined and be a lifetime member like several of my buddies were.
Unfortunately, I see the services going backward on the whole, even special services
Gday jocko and echo
Thanks for the life changing information, i have a question regarding evaluation. What is your opinion on getting subordinates to evaluate their leaders? See you all in Sydney. Cheers Ryan
"To be an eminently qualified human being". That's a tee. Everyone can hold you to your standard.
I appreciate Echo making a relatable reference for my/his generation. Don't let Jocko bully you for your accomplishments! :D haha All Love!
Needed this, Jocko and Echo. Thank you.
WHERE CAN I FIND THE FORMS that are mentioned in this episode? I’d really like to incorporate them into my personal evaluation process. Thank you to anyone who can direct me.
Here's a link to the pdf

So much good info in this podcast it’s crazy
my uncle showed me the turtle trick when I was like 5. One of my earliest memories because I was so shocked and impressed
I have been resentful about my evals for 7 years... this was enlightening
For Flipside Canvas: how about a black background with Echo playing Super Mario and a “get after it” on the bottom? 😂👏
Happy 25th April to you all. Go and get some.
"The Deliberate Practice Of Professionalism" is a lot like the business equivalent to this.
The path is epic.
A really good episode.
What questions should we ask ourselves and what should be the goal to be a better man?
Good evening from Florida.
Same
Commander Jocko with the fire flammage once again
Really looking forward to that evaluation system Jocko!
Great podcast!
Anybody know where I can look up the grading scale for the evaluation form?
Anthony Morielli I’m looking for these forms also. I will let you know if I’m able to find them or if someone directs me to them. Please do the same and alert me if you find this information. Thank you.
Been awhile, 30 years, since I was a Marine. But I remember problems with that 5 scale grading system. It seems that nobody wanted to grade their subordinates anything less than a 4.6. I think the problem is that it didn't have enough stratifications. Rather than five, there should be 10 to account for people who were real screw-ups. So when you get a 5 out of 10 you know you're doing okay.
If anyone wants the link to the ratings document : dmna.ny.gov/forms/naval/NAVMC_10835__EF__5334.pdf
If I was Echo Charles, I would've been deployed overseas multiple times before Podcast 174.
I am in the middle-to-end of medical school right now, and these are very relevant standards for the work that we as (future) doctors are doing, next to the CanMEDS framework we follow in medicine.
Is there a pdf file of these standards which are shareable perhaps?
I dont know why jocko ever decided to go with the black and white filter, but jesus christ does it fit these podcasts perfect.
Anyone know where you can grab a copy of these documents they are talking about. Listing out the characteristics etc
I've uninstalled all my videogames... It is my one weakness that once I start I can't stop. I'm embarrassed because I had the problem growing up and its been encroaching on my life now that I'm in college. I want to stop the STOP START STOP START problem where I get back into the bad habit. Before you know it I am wasting 5 hours a day, my mind is fried and I start eating crap. Jocko it would be awesome if you could do an episode on why games are bad for you and why you should give them up for good, I know the reasons already but if I have a sound record of you telling me and others to stay free it would really help me out a ton. Thanks.
I just purchased the Molk DARKNESS!!! Question...I tore up my shoulder, bicep, labrum, etc. My flexibility is ahead of schedule because I'm gettin' after it. Will the Krill Oil be enough or should Joint Warfare find its' way in there? Lastly, had dinner and washed it down with Jocko White Tea. Dude!!! This podcast is slowly creeping in to every aspect of my life. Definitely NOT a bad thing. Carry on.
Echo cracks me up
Thats what the stoic philosophers do.. they journal at the end of the day and they write on: what did I encountered today? Did I respond or did I react it ? What did I do today to get me closer to my goal? have I noticed anything that distracted me of my goal? etc
Who wrote NAVMC 10835? It would be outstanding to have them on to discuss this form with.
Hey Jocko I really enjoy the podcast I listen to it every morning to get mr prepared for the day. Just a thought for a new guest, how about Commander Rorke Denver
Great podcast!
anyone know where i can find a link to the document jocko is reading from? would like to use it for self assessment on a regular basis
TIL UNSAT means unsatisfactory.
Damn... I would love to print out the system he read out.
where can I get a copy of that evaluation criteria?
