[SPEAKER_00]: This is the juggle underground podcast number one seventy two sitting here with echo Charles We have gotten some questions We've received some questions from you the troopers and we are going to provide some Courses of action some iterative decisions you can make and in some cases some straight-up answers to your scenario. [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so let's get into it. [SPEAKER_01]: Comparatively I see it as guidance. [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, team sane [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a good comprehensive assessment. [SPEAKER_01]: Look, guidance. [SPEAKER_01]: It is leadership, which is according to the Marine Corps credo manual. [SPEAKER_01]: I forget the numbers. [SPEAKER_01]: The most important thing. [SPEAKER_01]: Leadership. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_01]: Check. [SPEAKER_01]: and some other outfits to believe the same thing. [SPEAKER_01]: And I believe the same thing too. [SPEAKER_01]: Same thing to you.
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, comprehensively that's what this is. [SPEAKER_01]: Leadership guidance. [SPEAKER_01]: First question. [SPEAKER_01]: Lately work has been rough. [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, electrician and have made a few costly mistakes. [SPEAKER_01]: Others have too. [SPEAKER_01]: Our boss didn't take it well, yelling, swearing, threatening to fire people, not my name. [SPEAKER_01]: It was bad.
[SPEAKER_01]: He later apologized in a meeting, but still made us our casting comment about our writing or wiring skills. [SPEAKER_01]: Clearly, he's still angry. [SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm losing sleep, afraid of messing up again. [SPEAKER_01]: I want to improve, but I'm walking on egg shells, and it's draining. [SPEAKER_01]: Deep down, I fear I don't belong in this field, and then my boss has lost faith in me.
[SPEAKER_01]: People say, just keep going, but I'm struggling to believe, it'll get better. [SPEAKER_01]: How do I let go of the past mistakes and self doubt? [SPEAKER_01]: How can I move forward when I'm not sure my boss believes in me anymore? [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, well, speaking of this outfit, you know what you're gonna do. [SPEAKER_00]: You're gonna lead here by taking ownership of your mistakes, right? [SPEAKER_00]: That's what we're leading with. [SPEAKER_00]: I apologize to the boss.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tell him, hey, I messed this up. [SPEAKER_00]: I recognize that I messed this up. [SPEAKER_00]: Don't talk. [SPEAKER_00]: You see, others did too. [SPEAKER_00]: Don't worry about others. [SPEAKER_00]: Don't worry about that. [SPEAKER_00]: It's about you. [SPEAKER_00]: Tell me when to get better. [SPEAKER_00]: Tell me your focus. [SPEAKER_00]: Tell me when to learn and tell me you're just ready to work. [SPEAKER_00]: Work hard.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then also aggressively figure out what it is that you did wrong, right? [SPEAKER_00]: Whatever you did wrong, aggressively figured out, and what's the root cause of why you did it? [SPEAKER_00]: You know, what is the reason that this mistake happened? [SPEAKER_00]: And then how can you prevent it from happening against another thing? [SPEAKER_00]: I would actually prefer that you do that before you roll in to talk to the boss, right? [SPEAKER_00]: You want to have a plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then you're going to study and train and you're going to like show them a video. [SPEAKER_00]: You're going to send them a YouTube channel. [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, a YouTube video. [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, this is what we messed up. [SPEAKER_00]: We didn't know we were supposed to do this. [SPEAKER_00]: I see that it wasn't code. [SPEAKER_00]: Now that we know the code, it won't happen again. [SPEAKER_00]: And by the way, here's the code book.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got all the things I wrote them down. [SPEAKER_00]: I got a I've made a short note thing. [SPEAKER_00]: I put it on chat GPT. [SPEAKER_00]: I got the want you see what I'm saying? [SPEAKER_00]: Get aggressive. [SPEAKER_00]: And then what you do is you go into just full [SPEAKER_00]: Just full trooper mode. [SPEAKER_00]: Show up early. [SPEAKER_00]: Stay late. [SPEAKER_00]: Be organized. [SPEAKER_00]: Look sharp. [SPEAKER_00]: Right. [SPEAKER_00]: Hair cut.
[SPEAKER_00]: Clean shave. [SPEAKER_00]: You don't think it's a big deal. [SPEAKER_00]: Hair cut. [SPEAKER_00]: Clean shave. [SPEAKER_00]: Good clean or close. [SPEAKER_00]: Remember Jason Wilson was on? [SPEAKER_00]: He's talking about when he was a contractor doing tile. [SPEAKER_00]: He's like, oh, yeah. [SPEAKER_00]: Put on a clean shirt. [SPEAKER_00]: Look sharp. [SPEAKER_00]: Get in the job. [SPEAKER_00]: Look like a dirt bag, get no job.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, get some clean squared away clothes. [SPEAKER_00]: haircut, clean shave. [SPEAKER_00]: Clean, like work, if you have a workspace or a truck or your toolbox, should be dialed in. [SPEAKER_00]: Should be dialed in. [SPEAKER_00]: Hundred percent dialed in. [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't have to be new, but it has to be clean. [SPEAKER_00]: It has to be organized. [SPEAKER_00]: That's professionalism. [SPEAKER_00]: Take notes. [SPEAKER_00]: All right, take notes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Be right and things down. [SPEAKER_00]: Take pictures of your work. [SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes people post up their plumbing job tag me in it because they want me to see that works getting done and it's getting done right. [SPEAKER_00]: Some people have sent me some electric boxes. [SPEAKER_00]: Some fuse boxes with eighty million wires going in there, but they're all dialed in. [SPEAKER_00]: They're all squared away.
[SPEAKER_00]: Take pictures you work, make it clean, make it organized, be proud, double check things, and then triple check the important things. [SPEAKER_00]: Whatever you drop the ball on this other mistake, triple check that. [SPEAKER_00]: Keep taking ownership, something messes up, fix it, take on it, take ownership of it, fix it, stay humble, stay hungry, keep working hard. [SPEAKER_00]: Here's the deal.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your boss needs [SPEAKER_00]: Good quality, reliable, skilled electricians. [SPEAKER_00]: People that show up on time, people that are organized, people that are squared away, people that look sharp. [SPEAKER_00]: Your electrician, I mean, your boss, I guarantee you needs people like that, because every company needs people like that. [SPEAKER_00]: All of them. [SPEAKER_00]: Be one of those people. [SPEAKER_00]: Just be one of those people.
[SPEAKER_00]: And you won't have anything to worry about. [SPEAKER_00]: You've got this, that's what I got. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, learned early on that the taking extreme ownership, ship sequence, the whole process is very, has very important elements to it that are all required. [SPEAKER_01]: Otherwise, it is simply not taking too much. [SPEAKER_01]: So like, you know, admitting it or saying it was your fault, because of you, you know, it's your responsibility.
[SPEAKER_01]: Same what you're going to do to fix it and that actually fix in it. [SPEAKER_01]: Yep. [SPEAKER_00]: Got to do it all. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so that a lot of time. [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to be on something I have witnessed for his hand. [SPEAKER_01]: people going through the whole sequence except for the not actually fixing it. [SPEAKER_01]: So it's like, you know, things stay the same, but there is a whole lot of no, that's my fault.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and this is what I'm going to do to fix it. [SPEAKER_01]: And then they don't fix it. [SPEAKER_01]: They kind of, you know, and so it's just kind of a bunch of things. [SPEAKER_01]: And then it ceases to become extreme. [SPEAKER_01]: So I think that yeah, after after a certain amount of time, when you okay, yeah, you mess up, you make this big gossip mistake. [SPEAKER_01]: You create this new reputation of being like super extra squared away.
[SPEAKER_01]: Easy to work with the whole thing. [SPEAKER_01]: The costly mistake that you made feeds. [SPEAKER_00]: Very out of fit over time. [SPEAKER_00]: We'll take some time. [SPEAKER_00]: We'll go for it. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for sure. [SPEAKER_01]: Be nothing but a memory. [SPEAKER_01]: Next question. [SPEAKER_01]: Jockel, I've always had a thirst for adventure and craving to live a challenging and meaningful life.
[SPEAKER_01]: My father passed away twenty years ago and it really affected me. [SPEAKER_01]: My girlfriend, who I met nine years ago, was a first person I allowed to get close to me since my father passed. [SPEAKER_01]: She has severe bipolar disorder. [SPEAKER_01]: Her refuses to seek help for it. [SPEAKER_01]: I've tried everything to keep her happy and left myself with nothing. [SPEAKER_01]: I work twelve hours a day, six days a week for the government.
[SPEAKER_01]: My work vehicle has holes in it from shootings. [SPEAKER_01]: There yaa. [SPEAKER_01]: I am in all day long as extremely stressful and dangerous. [SPEAKER_01]: I'm definitely tough enough to endure long physical days where shootings occur. [SPEAKER_01]: But when I'm at home, which is not much, I have no peace. [SPEAKER_01]: She refuses to change or give our home peace. [SPEAKER_01]: I know it's time to leave for my own well being, but she's still.
[SPEAKER_01]: But she will lose everything without my financial help. [SPEAKER_01]: I fear regret. [SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I haven't left yet. [SPEAKER_01]: What do you think? [SPEAKER_00]: So like my immediate instinctual answer in that is leave. [SPEAKER_00]: Just to kind of think through that a little bit more, it sounds like you have tried everything, you tried different approaches.
