Have you Thought About Going Back into the Military? Ask yourself this first
Manage episode 392118295 series 3419309
Most of us have this lingering thought of wanting to rejoin once we get out. This is a normal thought to have and it could be a thought that may never go away.
Ask yourself these few questions before calling up a recruiter:
What did I actually miss about the military?
What would day to day life be like if I were to rejoin?
Do I want to rejoin because I have regrets or unfinished accomplishments?
Did I give myself a fair chance in the civilian world?
These questions may bring up even more questions and help you figure out exactly what you are craving by wanting to sign back up.
I personally thought about rejoining myself. It took some time, but when my life beyond the military started to seem brighter, the idea of rejoining started to fade. Now it actually sounds ridiculous and I know my well-being would absolutely not be supported.
So before you make an irrational decision, understand that it is normal to feel this way and it won’t always be like this. You can and will find purpose outside the military. You got this!
