This is the Jocko Underground Podcast, number 184, sitting here with Echo Charles.

We have got some questions from you troopers out in the world, and we will provide some guidance, some courses of action, and some recommendations.

That's what we got.

Let's get into this.

A lot of times these questions, by the way, a lot of these questions, the concept that underlies the question can be applied to all aspects of life.

Exactly, right? So it's like one of these little tasks. I know I do this work. I'll read the question and it'll be like, oh, this very specific person at this very specific place said this and does this. So what should I do? And I'm like, wait, wait, all you got to do is switch out the details and you're like bro that's me all day is what I'm saying

anyway that's good beneficial way to look at it all right first question I spent a lot

of my days on the road for work oftentimes needing to be at work at 445 a.m.

I always make sure to get a workout in before, before work, because I believe

I perform better, and I'm just an overall better human being after a workout, even if it's just

an average hotel gym, you'd be amazed what you can do with a 20-pound kettlebell.

True that. But this requires me to get up at 255 a.m. which is very early so am I disciplined

or am I crazy all my co-workers think I'm crazy perhaps I'm a little of both it would be

interesting to know how much sleep this guy's getting and it would also be interesting I guess

even let me put a question even before that one how much sleep does this individual need right

because there's certain people leave need different levels of sleep everyone's different my family

is a good example my I don't need a lot of sleep my oldest daughter doesn't need a lot of sleep. My oldest daughter doesn't need a lot of sleep.

My middle daughter, you better get, it's going to take some activity to get her out of bed in the morning because she likes to sleep.

My wife, she likes to sleep.

She'll sleep a lot.

She'll be no factor going to bed at 8.15, 8.30.

You know, she'll look at me all tired.
