2. Trouble Letting The Military Go

=======================

Thanks for signing up for our newsletter.

Everyone has many different experiences letting the
military go. This post is in humor yet it gives you
food for thought on everyday living.

In my book, I mention a story that was told to
me by a fellow veteran. There was a retired E-9 who kept
his uniform by his door and pressed (serviceable). He believed
that the military was going to call him back and
he wanted to be ready when they called. Despite his
mission being over with the military, he had
a hard time letting the military go.

This may appear out of the norm, but it isn’t
when you really give if some thought. In the
military we have a huge sense of purpose.

For some reason when we leave the military,
some comrades believe our sense of purpose is
gone as well. This is on the contrary.

The military transition is a time to discover and
reflect on your goals and dreams. For the first time
in years you’re able to make your own decisions and destiny.

Use this time to seek resources for knowledge and
future options.


Thinking = Behavior = Environment

Check our main web site at www.veteransinmotion.com
for “The Five Mistakes People Make While Leaving
the Military and Five Crucial Tips to Avoid Them”. An
introductory guide to leaving the military.

If at any point, you need a sounding board to get you
started with your transition, feel free to contact me at
vetsinmotion@aol.com for a complimentary, no-obligation
coaching session. Together we can customize a plan
or pinpoint where you are in your process.


Stay tuned for more tips next week on transitioning out of the
military. Have a prosperous journey in the civilian sector.
You deserve it!
