Continue to read book "The dichotomy of leadership : balancing the challenges of extreme ownership to lead and win" by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin.
It's not easy to have patience when you're at odds with your boss, but I appreciate Willink and Babin's advice to breathe and remember my long term goals. Ultimately, I really enjoyed this book. It's well-written and well-organized, and I loved the real-life examples from the authors' lives. Several reasons you need to read this book:
1. Jocko and Leif have done it again. They've written an epic book with practical leadership lessons for anyone in any sized business. They blend the leadership lessons into compelling stories from their time.
2. Dichotomy is Extreme Ownership (EO) 2.0. You don't need to read EO before Dichotomy, though I'd recommend it. EO had a chapter introducing the concepts that are fully developed in Dichotomy.
3. Get inspired by this book! Jocko has inspired me to wake up early, which has been a game changer for my life. Jocko posts a photo of his watch on Twitter every morning when he wakes up at 4:30 a.m. I am not getting up that early, but I'm now waking up at 6 a.m. most mornings, including weekends, which has amped up my daily productivity significantly.
4. Jocko and Leif's intensity has encouraged me greatly. Jocko believes that waking up early and exercising is the transformational habit for your day.
5. Jocko believes in the word GOOD, even when things do not seem good on the surface. It's taking life head on and all that it brings you. And some good can be found in whatever it brings you. The Stoic philosophers approached life this way as well. They encourage us to embrace whatever life brings our way. "Embrace it all."
6. Jocko advocates that we all exercise daily. It doesn't have to be lifting weights daily, but some activity every day and ideally first thing in the morning to get your blood pumping. It could be a walk. It could be a run. He does advocate for strength training, which I agree with.
