  Someone I know is considering a military career, so thanks for this positive post on what you can take away from the experience. I found your blog in today's list at http://www.successful-blog.com and have subscribed to your RSS feed.

  ddalgleish, thanks for dropping by and commenting. I'm sure that someone in your life will learn a lot with some time in the military. Encourage them to make the most of it.

  You're definitely a Successful and Outstanding Blogger, so it was great to see you on the Blog-to List!
  
  This post is awesome. In a way, maybe the points are obvious; I *know* I know them. But they way you put the list together totally struck a chord with me. I am bookmarking this one to read every day for a while. Thank you!

  Hey there! Thanks for kind words. I'm working at it everyday and it's good to get some feedback.
  
  Thank you for your comment about the post itself as well. I really do feel like lessons we've learned earlier in life can still be applied. I regret too that I've forgotten these lessons over time and needed to be reminded.
  
  As always, your support and encouragement are appreciated.

  While certainly not a military type (unlike other High School rockers, though, I had and still have a TREMENDOUS respect for military types!), this is great advice that works well in all areas of life, whether you play in a band, write a blog, work as an engineer, or work as a janitor.
  
  The basics of any occupation or pastime are the same.
  
  Excellent post and insights, as always!

  Thanks Gregg. I'm with you. if you've had a job where you've taken it seriously, you learned some things. Things that are reusable across your life. So glad you stopped by.

  All great points! And you are absolutely right that we think we know these, but sometimes fall short. Thanks!

  These are all really great points. I am not the best at incorporating all of these - but it is important to remember that you will be the BEST if you do remember and use them all.
