I like the military but a part of me feels scared. I feel that I am out of place with them because I feel most will look at me more as a specimen than a person. I haven't had a lot of people that treated me warm but most like clinical. Like, the military has order, discipline and things like that and I'm some random pissant kid. I feel very small. They so professional with their uniforms and their knowledge, I feel like why am I in their presence, I don't belong here?

It's normal to feel out of place, the training and uniforms are a part of the military and it works like a finely oiled machine. all the parts have a purpose. Add to this fact that it's almost like a family and it becomes downright scarey. Not to worry though, once in uniform and someone has completed their training, they usually feel right at home. (OK, well ALMOST right at home.) soldiers don't look at civilians like they are better then they are, soldiers are proud of their service and uniforms and rightfully so! Soldiers are very self confident and that can be taken as being arrogant by some civilians. Most are just people like anyone else, but highly trained, proud, professional people. Don't be scared of them, You are the reason they are there.

The military must have order and discipline to win wars. Those are normal people under those uniforms. But, when wearing the uniform they aren't representing themselves, they're representing a country and silently warning enemies to stay away. The military is massive, strong, advanced, and should be looked up as such. You are not small, you are a part of it!

They positioned him on a job he does not like? Even I lose motiviation for artwork while my employer does this to me and that i'm a workaholic! in the previous you could help him with the aid of this you should understand him. an common common to verify e book: character Plus through Florence Littauer. it somewhat is witty, humorous and gets genuine all the way down to character types and issues to do to tone down the undesirable features and perk up the solid ones. i think of it provide you some distinctly good suggestion to get him inspired back and to settle for his new physique. Has he ever informed you there's a possible way or incorrect thank you to dangle lavatory paper? Are his extreme's extreme and his low's low? Or... does he bypass somewhat overboard with underlining and exclamation factors in his notes? Does he have a no longer common time apologizing? as quickly as you realize your husbands inner workings, it's going to be easier to help motivate the outer workings. Leg or no leg... it somewhat is nonetheless all relating to the ideas!

WALK TALL and STRAIGHT because you EARNED YOUR RIGHT to be in the MILITARY.

Sure those with more rank and experience may make you feel small because you have not shared the same path. It is also their DUTY to bring you along and up to their level of bearing and knowledge.

If you aren't SCARED then you are INSANE! The TEAM protects the TEAM and you need to carry your weight in EVERY situation. I don't care if it is eight guys crawling in the bushes or a Company; EVERYBODY HUMPS the WEIGHT as a TEAM!

CHILL, RELAX when you can and PUMP it up a couple notches.

FORGET, "I don't belong here" and ask yourself "What can I do better to SUPPORT the TEAM"?

Good luck, BE SAFE and THANKS FOR SERVING!

when you're wearing the uniform, you will blend in with the rest of the crowd and you will no longer be an individual. you don't have to be in the military to have discipline, proud or professional. be yourself and never feel small.

No problem, most are regular people like you and me. As long as you do your duty to the up most limit with integrity, honor, and respect.

Never knew our military was that impressive, guess we're doing well.
