1. My physical fitness and my preparation for my future. Basically its important to me that I don't end up poor in the gutter. I think that's reasonably important!
2. My high school JNROTC future. According to SCPO I will be SCPO once he is MCPO! That's a big position! Top of the Top. Not quite sure how to do its job but ill figure it out!
3. Dedicate 20+ years to the United States Marine Corps and retire and not do anything more. Ill be that 4 star General and rolling in dough. Very hard earned dough. I will be that guy that is just a bad ass old guy, live out in the country, hunt my own food, drive the biggest truck I can find. Sit on my porch for most of the day with a double barrel shotgun in my lap. You know, the one that can play the blues like a pro too with a dog next to his chair. Any visitors are scared to come up, I can tell a car is coming 5 min before it can even see me. God, what a way to live, total silence out in the country. Id love that. But first I have to get past 20 years of being shot at to get there, nothing to bad.
4. What motivates me? Well, just about every second of the day im thinking about being a Marine. I couldn't want anything other than that. All physical activities im thinking of it, even sitting on the couch at home im thinking of coming home 10 years later to my family dressed in dress blues and just standing tall and proud. Serving the country, knowing that me and people like me are the reason my family can sleep safe at night. So I don't know what exactly is motivating me, maybe its all the pride, maybe the thought of being a hometown hero, maybe its just the type of music I listen to but whatever it is, I hope it never leaves!
