Thank you to each and every one of you who participated in the bingo challenge for September. My hope is that you were able to add at least one piece of this challenge into your normal routine. All these items on their own were pretty simple; now it is time to figure out how to incorporate them into your routines. In the running @Bri Varela @William Romman @Michael Young @Taryn Moore

I know everyone knows the feeling of being star struck - For me I love when I get to meet sports players, tv and movie stars - Its always amazing But for me, getting to meet motivational speakers, authors and people I look up to that gets me more struck for some reason. Like if I go to a conference and meet someone Ive learned from in this job it actually makes me more nervous and feel more like a geek than I did the time I got to meet Jensen Ackles lol (Good ole Dean Winchester himself from Supernatural) I know Im strange lol Im not sure how many of you are big military nerds like I am but yesterday I got to meet an absolute (to me atleast) legend (Jason Redman - Former Navy Seal and founder of the Wounded Warrior project) and got to listen to him speak in person and it was amazing Something like that always brightens up a day for me And just a heads up @Ely Rivera - if I ever do get to come to a hike or meet you in person one day - you will be meeting a very quiet and nervous person not the person uve met on here lmao

Apply for the things that scare you, show up, and do the work asked of you. We will not always get the result that we have worked for, but the goal is to grab some important takeaways and get better. I now better understand the OBT standard; I can now add those pieces into my training and improve. What have you signed up for recently, or what will you sign up for after reading this?

I havent worn my button down uniform at work volunatrily since 2022. When I gained my weight back we even went up a size in shirts and those still didnt fit. So instead of going up another size I just found every excuse not to wear one. Id call out on pub ed days when I could, or talk the officer into wearing our job shirts. I stopped teaching lectures and only taught on practical days at the training center. When I was on light duty I found every excuse not to stay in the office where it was required. Well the last 2 days have not been the prettiest but Ive beenable to button up my shirt and sit at my desk without the buttons flying open - It doesnt look the best or feel comfortable but its better than not being able to wear it so Im going to take the small win.
