tony what is the number one quality that allows a leader to lead men into uncomfortable conditions and succeed what’s uncomfortable i guess just bad scenarios some tough situations well i think keep it in your mind mission men mission men look guys you’re not paid to sit here and here’s what we got to do let’s go do it yes uh it sucks sometimes it’s bad but mission men if you keep thinking that that’s what we’re paid to do the bottom line is you follow the orders of the guy above you and we’re team guys so that line bleeds a lot it has a lot of waves in it you know because he’ll be like hey tony what do you think we’re gonna do i don’t know jacob let’s do this all right it sounds good but at any given time if he goes hey tony this is what we’re doing roger that and that’s it even if it means dying because if you lead by example and you’re humble and you’re good to your guys and you know your guys and you let them know you but you don’t wipe their ass and you don’t take any [ __ ] from them when they know you they’ll follow you you know if you’re humble and you make mistakes admit it and move on and i think that’s uh i know a few of my guys probably most of them would follow me wherever we want you know and uh i guess that’s just because i never change they always know what they’re going to get for me that’s about it steady yep yeah the other uh the other big thing is making sure people understand why they’re doing what they’re doing because like tony just said man we we’re going to have discussions about stuff and say hey this is why this is why well this is why i think we should do it this way you know it’s not just like going do now there are situations of course where someone goes hey go and execute this now hey go hit that building hey take guys over there there’s times in combat where you got to make those decisions and you got to make things happen and that’s when you talk that’s what that’s when the important things that you just talked about having a just trust right like i i just had trust in my guys they trusted me that if i was telling them to do something it was the right thing to do and by the way if i told tony go take that building over there and he looked at me and said negative not now i knew he was saying that to me for a reason yeah something in front of it yeah there was a reason why he was telling me that and we’re not gonna have that discussion probably don’t have time to do it right right now i’d say okay then we got to get out of here i need to get okay roger roger and then we’d go so man having that trust building up that trust through you know the humility the relationship all that stuff is is how you end up with a tight unit and that’s how you that really that’s how you lead
