Sucess is when you accomplish your dreams threw your heart and wouldnt regret a mistake you made because it lead you to this moment. My personal definition: Define Sucess? What are some sacrifices I might have to make in order to achieve my goal? The biggest reason would be family. My family life will always come before anyone or anything including my career. Family life will always be the top excuse. My second excuse is the risks that come with this career, including death. (this can mean drowning while trying to save someone, frezzing to death when hypothymia takes control of the body in the frigid waters of Alaska ect.) And my third excuse, is if I were Physically handicap and could'nt have met the physical requirments to this career. No, the Coast Guard including any other Military service will pay for full tuition. What are some rewards you hope to gain from making the commmitments and sacrifices? How can I overcome each of these excuses I listed? Yes I believe they do, when you are rewarded for something, you become more confident in what you do. And the commitments and sarcrifices will make more of a challenge but in the long run it will pay off and the hard work will be revealed. 1) Tell my family that this is the life style I would like to grow in for my career years. 2) Do research on the risks and how to manuver about them. 3) To find a different career option in the Coast Guard or work around my disability and find a new method to my situation.
