COT:
Challenges build resilience, shape character, and lead to growth. Doing hard things pushes you beyond your comfort zone, teaching perseverance and discipline—qualities that fuel success and fulfillment. As Theodore Roosevelt said, “Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty.” Every struggle strengthens you, and every obstacle overcome brings you closer to your best self.

COT: Doubt. I’ve been fumbling around looking for work for a few months now and it’s easy to have the doubts creep in. So I went looking for some motivational guidance to pass along to the men. Jocko had a gem buried in something I listened to. Listen to the doubts. Respect them. Don’t fear them, but understand where they’re coming from. Use that understanding to poke holes in your approaches, your preparation, use them to get better so when the time comes, you are prepared, you are ready and able to achieve success at the moment of criticality.
