After speaking with hundreds of veterans who have transitioned out of the military, one constant emerges: time is a crucial factor throughout the process.
Many who have gone before you have expressed a wish for more time at various points in their transition. Whether it was time to reflect on their post-military aspirations or to prepare adequately for pursuing their dream job, more time was a common desire.
Key takeaways:
There will always be more job opportunities, so take the time to identify precisely what you want to do after your military career to avoid wasting time later.
Don’t rush into failure.
The road less traveled may seem daunting and time-consuming, but it often leads to the most rewarding destinations. Don’t shy away from pursuing what others might avoid due to time or effort. Give yourself ample time and reap the rewards.
Time is the one thing we can’t reclaim. Don’t squander it on things that don’t matter. You’re leaving the military for a reason, so don’t re-enter a similar environment, just in a suit and tie, for the wrong reasons.
Take your time to do it right. You owe it to yourself to ensure you’re making the right choices. While abundant opportunities await you post-military, they can also make it challenging to find your true path.
Tune in to this episode; it’s brief but packed with valuable information.
