Someone once told me to never give up on something I was passionate about, but to find a way of making it happen. No matter how long it takes or how many push backs you get, if you are passionate about something, aim to succeed.

Personally joining the Army was a great decision. Its given me that stable career everybody wants. The opportunities within the Army are second to none whether it be from gaining qualifications in your chosen field to travelling the world doing various activities. If you give the Army your everything the Army will give you everything. As cliche as it sounds the army really does give you friends for life. You are all equally motivate and go through the same experiences which bonds you more than anything else in life.

Throughout selection and training things will not always go your way, it is designed to be tough and challenge you to give you the tools and know how to succeed in the challenging job as a soldier. It is vitally important that when you have a tough day you have the drive and determination to get up go again and get better. Anyone can do this as long as you give yourself the right mindset.
