Forget about the odds

[BFM this]

1. Have to go to work in a few hours so, no, not drunk.

2. Posting here, because this is where the target audience is.

3. 20y ago, I was a casual 2Lt waiting to start UPT.

4. -->On reflection, based on a totality of factors, I was dreadfully under-qualified.  But somehow, I was there.

5. Pretty sure I blasted Eminem's Lose Yourself every morning driving in from base housing to the squadron, well into Phase 2.

 

Seriously, if you're browsing this forum, my advice is to fight like hell: it's totally worth it!

hopefully you don't make a sober post apologizing that you were drunk making me look like a dumbass, but I seriously appreciate you posting this. it alleviates my day to day stress of worrying how I am not going to attain the dream. seeing first hand that people actually struggled and achieved it instead of glazed through the process is a huge reliever.
