Landon Longgrear was a United States Marine who answered the call to serve with quiet resolve, carrying the weight of duty far from home into the unforgiving terrain of Afghanistan. His life stands as a testament to courage without fanfare—proof that honor is often written not in words, but in sacrifice.

U.S. Marines at the Battle for Sangin is a battle-intensive and deeply personal war memoir following a small Marine infantry detachment who arrive in Afghanistan with acts of killing beginning immediately. Not a week goes by before the Marines experience the deaths of friendly forces, Marine casualties, enemy combatants killed, numerous IED strikes, air strikes, predator drone strikes and around-the-clock patrolling in hostile territory where death is ever present.

Using a 1944 Army pamphlet, combat lessons, and real-world examples (from donuts to debt to doom-scrolling), they show how tiny daily choices add up to victory or defeat—and how to train yourself to obey your own orders so you can actually reach your long-term goals.

Jocko in Las Vegas for UFC BJJ, coaching his daughter Rana in a tough match against Bella Mir. He recaps the fight—Bella’s wrestling and top control versus Rana’s constant submission attempts—then shares what sticks with him most: after losing, Rana says, “If I only had one more minute.”

That comment becomes the episode’s main point: in life, you don’t get extra time. Jocko ties it to Shakespeare (“I wasted time, now time doth waste me”), calls for an honest end-of-year time audit, and stresses time is the one resource you cannot control or recover—so wasting it has real consequences.

He closes by promoting the January “DEF Reset,” a four-week discipline challenge built around daily habits like getting up earlier, doing morning physical activity, planning priorities (especially long-term strategic goals), hydrating, eating clean, cutting junk/sugar, reading or writing daily, and reflecting with gratitude—ending with a reminder that the clock never stops.
