Led The Way
Jocko wakes up at 3:58 a.m., posts a picture of his worn Timex wristwatch on Twitter and starts his day by weightlifting before sunrise, then surfing the early morning waves. He's already accomplished more than most people do in a whole week.
He does it all to stay in the best shape of his life, which isn't easy. He has a reputation as an unflappable, hardworking Navy SEAL, and his military-style workouts and mindset are popular with listeners to his popular podcast, which he co-hosts with Echo Charles, a soft-spoken friend of more than a decade. They discuss topics like leadership, self-discipline and mindset. Jocko's gravelly voice, confidence and earnestness inspire many. He speaks simple truths that resonate. He explains that if you work harder and have more discipline, you can have a better life. Then he tells stories you don't want to stop listening to.
Almost a year and a half after his retirement from the military, Jocko is becoming something of a celebrity in the world of personal development. He's authored multiple New York Times best-selling books on leadership and fitness, and has become a top-rated podcast host. But he's not exactly thrilled by this attention. He wants to keep his reputation as a quiet professional and is wary of the "hero" role that has come with it.
His biggest worry about going public was the risk of looking stupid or fake in front of the men he served with. Jocko is 45, the same age as many of the men who died in his SEAL teams' missions during the Iraq war. He was in a SEAL team, Task Unit Bruiser, and later the officer in charge of training for all West Coast SEAL teams. He is a decorated combat veteran. For more details please visit Jocko Maniac
In an age of luxury and comfort, people seem to crave unspoiled heroes. They want to see what it's like to be a man who gets things done and puts others before himself. They want to hear the stories of strong, tough, smart, moral men they can model themselves and their children after. And they want to know that they're surrounded by men who aren't afraid of getting their hands dirty.
He is a hero in many ways, and his stories are captivating. But there's more to this story than his popularity and celebrity status. His real-life story is one of perseverance and courage, as he fights to achieve his dream of becoming a music artist. His debut single Fly To The Moon, released on TikTok has a deep meaning that resonates with the audience. The song is a testament to his resilience and passion for the craft. The track has been embraced by audiences worldwide, and is on the charts in several countries. He continues to write and record, and we look forward to his next release. He is a true inspiration to all, and we wish him the very best for his future endeavors.
