There are many things in life I don't understand that cause me to pause and contemplate. A few of my more recent ponderings are: ❓ Why a single dog in a home acts like a normal dog, add a second dog and its complete chaos? ❓ How kids raised by the same parents in the same way turn out so different? ❓ Why Hollywood cannot come up with any new movie ideas? ❓ When did it become ok to fill your car's gas tank and once complete, leave your car at the pump so you can go into the store? Why don't you park it in the parking lot so someone else can use the pump? That last one really gets me. Completely rude and inconsiderate. Experiencing this yesterday while traveling got me thinking about transition again. Transition is a stressful event, regardless of how smooth your transition goes. Keep this in mind when dealing with people willing to help you with your transition. Don't let your emotions get the best of you during a stressful time. Remember that these people are simply trying to help a future veteran get set up for success. ✔ Respect their time and efforts. ✔ Listen to what they have to say. Use what works for you. ✔ Check your attitude at the door. It's the very least you can do as they try to assist you. Happy transitioning! #vetsos #veteran #veterans #veteranshelpingveterans #military #militaryspouse #militaryspouses #militarytransition #transitioningmilitary #transitioningservicemembers #transitioningveterans

#Stop #stressing it's not worth it. You're not lost you're just at an uncomfortable stage in your life where your old self is gone, but your new self isn't fully born. It's a scary process but to become who you want to be you "must" sacrifice who you are. Take a breather, relax you got it. #military #veterans #life #finance #accounting

Again, I've got some hard truths for you vets out there. Stop blaming yourself and letting yourself be the victim in life.  Extreme Ownership, a book by @jockowillink, sums this up perfectly. You need to take ownership of your life, of where you're at, and stop playing the blame game. Share this to your story and tag me and @jockowillink if you agree with this! #realestateinvestors #militarytomillionaire #realestateinvesting #usmilitary #usveterans #militaryveterans #militaryservicemembers #financialeducation #financialliteracy #financialfreedom #activedutymilitary #investingtips101 #militarylife #militarylifestyle

Transition from the Military can be a lonely road. No one cares more about your transition than you. *Leverage resources *Talk to your buddies who have made the transition *Learn how to use LinkedIn *Put a daily, weekly, monthly plan together *And Smile!! #militarytransition #infantry #veteran #communityresources

Today we honor the strength, bravery, and sacrifices of those who served. Today and every day, thank you to our veterans. #VeteransDay #multifamily #revenuemanagement #pricingadvisory #growth #apartments #propertymanagement #assetmanagement

In a constant state of transition. Many have said, and I do believe this to be true, that veterans tend to live in a continuing state of transition after leaving the military. There are many reasons for this. Here are a few: ❌ Looking for job satisfaction ❌ Letting go of the "nomad" lifestyle of continuously moving every couple years ❌ Uncovering something "new" that is an adjustment from service ❌ Sense of purpose ❌ Invisible wounds ...and there are so many more. I'm here to say this is normal. Many veterans go through this. How do you handle it? 🤔 There are two things I am specifically doing to help myself. ✅ Constantly talking with my family about the "weird" things I experience and think about. My wife and I have been together over 25 years, she knows me better than I know myself at times. ✅ Find a way to give back. I have joined local organizations that I believe in and that I want to contribute to. It's rewarding work that makes a difference in someone's life. Don't feel weird and don't think your alone if you feel like you're in a constant state of transition. It's something many of us live every day. You have battle buddies out here going through the same thing, reach out and let's talk. #vetsos #veteran #veterans #veteranshelpingveterans #veterantransition #military #militaryspouse #militaryspouses #militarytransition #transitioningservicemember #transitioningmilitary #transitioningveteran

The mustache is back! This is an awesome convo I had with @mindyatbp back in the day about my story and how I went from a negative net worth, blowing all of my money on stupid stuff in the Marine Corps, to discovering 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' and buying my first duplex in three months. So what do you think? Should I bring the stache back??  #realestateinvestors #militarytomillionaire #realestateinvesting #usmilitary #usveterans #militaryveterans #militaryservicemembers #financialeducation #financialliteracy #financialfreedom #activedutymilitary #investingtips101 #militarylife #militarylifestyle #biggerpocketsmoney #biggerpockets #duplex #fhaloans

Wild Warrior Adventure (@wildwarrioradv) believes there is incredible power in being in a natural environment as part of the healing process from mental, spiritual, and physical injuries received in combat and military service. But don't take our word for it! Research done at the University of Michigan by Duvall and Kaplan on the effects of extended group-based nature recreation experiences says: "Extended group-based nature recreation experiences can have significant positive effects on veterans. These findings also indicate that veterans with more severe health issues may find these programs especially beneficial...Personal challenge, companionship with other veterans, and living outdoors are all likely to resonate with experiences these participants had while in the military." Coupled with a solid, faith-based curriculum, opportunities to build camaraderie, and exceptional environments...WWA is truly on to something here! No matter who you are or what challenges you are facing, the research is there - get outside, go for a walk, take a hike, catch a fish, skip rocks...whatever it is, there are MASSIVE benefits to being out in nature to help improve you psychological health.
