Your life sucks? Good

>its good things are bad gives you chance to male things good instead of them just being good to begin with
why do military guys try and come across as such deep thinkers

Same. I miss the times I created art for art's sake though and not compensation. The joy has disappeared.

am i really supposed to be scared of someone that shot unarmed kids and takes adult karate classes?

Fuck off lefty-Yas Forums

didnt know who this was so looked him up....I'm a soft gay nerd that wants to take control of my depression and do the best me possible.
Is this guy's books good for improving myself?

No, they are terrible, you will end up more depressed.

Either do it for narcissism, the ladies or God, all other pathways are failures

I haven't purchased the book but from reviews it seems like it has useful advice/good messages but it's padded out for the sake of it.

I got a lot of good advice from just watching clips on Youtube. Some of the 2-3 hour ones are interesting depending on the guest. I liked the Dakota Meyer one personally.

Definitely recommend doing something while you listen to them though.

i unironically agree with this
i need to exercise my narcissistic muscles, without caring about who i hurt along the way more than I already do.
One of my many problems is caring what people think of me or thinking im an asshole.

sounds good to me!

but jocko i have terminal leukemia and my wife just divorced me and took everytihng

based jocko

Don't bother with proof of concept user, think like Jocko. YOU GOT THIS.

>need to exercise my narcissistic muscles
Well no, if your problem is thinking too much about others then being more narcissistic is giving them even more power. You're changing your life to be even more receptive to other people's thoughts and opinions.

By all means work out, dress better, make better choices. But what you need to do is accept people's thoughts and critiques but don't let them control you.

You have a choice in how you respond to things. It's all on you. Prioritise things that are important to you and don't do them to impress others, do it because it's the right thing to do.

Do you think they scream motivational platitudes at each other during sex?

GET AFTER IT.

Honestly after seeing all the other stupid jeans and jean styles it's entirely possible you could do this.

Ass hurts? Good. Just an opportunity to use your mouth.

>good

Does anyone know what Jocko's wife is like? Does she get tired of his incessant motivational speaking? How many times do you think she's heard about the Battle of Ramadi?

>"I was a fat fuck and went to Ranger school 3 TIMES, Jocko."
>"Well I was in the Battle of Ramadi and 3 of my men DIED, Goggins."
This repeats. Forever.

Good. It's an opportunity to appreciate what little life you have left and to find out who the people who really love you are.

i dont know how to not take things personally though. I'm like way too sensitive and it gets in the way of everything all the time.
How can I stop caring about what people think/say about me?
I've gotten pretty good and pretending/ignoring these feelings, but they're still there in reality for me.

>"babe can you do the dishes?"
>You know, in the battle of Ramadi I knew a guy, great leader, everybody loved him, he would do the dishes for everybody. That's what a good leader is. Be a leader honey, you're great, I know you can do it.
>"so I'm doing the dishes then?"

>START WAKING UP AT 4AM YOU FUCKING PUSSY

Do it for free. Write one epic song and release it free of charge. It will most likely not get any traction but someone will hear it and appreciate it. That should be enough. Just spam it a little when it's done and then move on as if it doesn't even exist. Like a pointless meme. It'll be beautiful!

That's your ego talking. It's your choice to let yourself be affected. You're not helpless. You have the power. It's on you.

try to remember that most people are just trying to get through their life without fucking it up or people around them, and probably aren't thinking about you. Most people have good intentions they just fuck up with how they communicate or an action so it seems like they're malicious. Then there are retards that do retarded shit and they can be ignored completely

Lmao that's operator AF dude. Let's run a FTX, then debrief in my room.

I think linguistically, it's active words like "attack the issue". It's like therapy but for men.

Unironically sound advice.

mmm romantic

*sigh I know

when i was a kid, my dad used to tell me everyone is worried about their shoes lol
he meant what you are saying....i just always forget....thx for reminding me

You're not as powerless as you think. You have the choice man, you have the choice in how you respond to things. The actions you take, what you decide to fill your head with.

But it takes discipline and actions, it's the harder path compared to weakness which is resigning yourself to life and being steamrolled.

I know it doesn't feel like it but you absolutely have the power to make those decisions. Even if you don't want to do it, even if you're tired and depressed and broken, do it anyway.

well im writing my songs and when they're done I'll put them on soundcloud. That's really all I know how to do as far as bettering myself. Hopefully, when people enevitably talk shit about the songs in the comments section, I'll just ignore it.

Don't ignore it. Feedback is a gift and it's your choice whether you want to accept it or not. Sometimes your ego gets in the way of what may very well be legitimate criticism. Obviously, it should be constructive not just rude comments.

If it's just a rude comment then ignore it but if you feel like there's something there, don't get offended or upset, accept it. Move on.

yeah of coarse rude stuff i ignore but if they say something like damn that singer needs some practice? ...ooh that could cut me pretty deep user

That's not necessarily rude but it's not constructive. It may hurt but accept it and move on, keep getting better.

Shit your pants right now.

Yeah that Andy guy seemed like a guy I could actually get along with, and I'm a big ol" left faggot

>Shit your pants? Good. You learned your limits.

Your wife and children were killed in a B and E gone bad but you survived? GOOD.

Your daughter had a seizure at school and fell and cracked her head open and the resulting ambulance ride and hospital care has put you into tens of thousands of debt? GOOD.

All your personal data and financial information was hacked because of your brokers shitty security protocol? GOOD.

Your wife was gang raped in front of you while you were tied up and helpless? GOOD.

RELOAD

RECALIBRATE

REENGAGE

>Use the smell. Repurpose the smell.
>Throw your feces at your spouse, right now. She's divorcing you?
>Good. Recalibrate.

Thanks Jocko

imagine a conversation between jocko, wes watson, and the rock...

In the military this is considered Kant level thinking

Military ethos is generally learning to embrace the suck and keeping good humour in dire situations.

where were you 15 years ago when I desperately needed you?

im a 30yo wizard neet now. i have failed to develop as a person, to make friends, experiences, get a good education, job experience, everything.

Good.

EXTREME OWNERSHIP.
Own the fact that the dishes aren’t already done and vow to do better next time

>tfw my life was on track until this fucking quarantine

Thanks a lot, Wuhan man.

Good. Recalibrate, kill yourself, end the suffering.

youtube.com/watch?v=1kDoeaeS3no&t=1s

Killed yourself? Good. You pushed yourself to the limit. Hooyah.

They'd motivate each other and then beat the ever-loving shit out of each other. Then, they would reload, recalibrate and reengage. This would repeat for all eternity.

You desperately need it now. You're only 30 dude, just change now and forget about the past

>BACK IN THE DAYYY, in Ramadi, I trained ju jitsu with a guy called Manly Manlington. Great dude, badass, all around great leader. Real athlete. Anyway, he and I were getting after it, building relationships and found that ju jitsu was actually a really great way to get after it and build relationships so we turned the barracks into a ju jitsu dojo and and got after it

What skills do you have that make you so powerful?
You know what, I’ll admit it. He would fucking destroy me in a fight. I would be a bag of pulped flesh and smashed bones. But what can you do against him? Tell me your workout routine. You obviously don’t do Karate given your distance for it, so what martial arts do you do? How many fights have you been in? If you don’t answer, that’s confirmation that you can’t do it.

>DUDE JUST WAKE UP AT 2 AM LMAO

Absolute chad lifestyle. You're gay for mocking it

I'm gonna hoist myself up on a stick and have some villagers TIE me UP and spin me around and light a FIRE under my ASS and I'm gonna stick one of those flaming sticks UP MY ASS and I'm gonna say THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE CHALLENGE, NOW CHALLENGE, GET OUT OF MY WAY.

I woke up at 4am for a while, it's a great time to wake up actually. It feels peaceful but like the day is just about to break. So it feels like you're starting your day before it's begun. Gym is quiet, the air is a bit crisper.

It didn't last long because I have delayed sleep phase disorder but it was a great routine for 4 days.
