So I was supposed to have a meetup with some other guys and my recruiter for Future Soldier Training (FTS) but he texted me and said that we couldn't meet. So that left me to have to motivate myself to get up and take care of what I know still needs to be done on my own.

I have to boost myself--have that intrinsic motivation to get my butt in gear. My voice teacher used to put it this way, he'd say, "Apply the board of knowledge to the seat of education.". In other words, get my butt moving!!!! Waiting on a teacher to get me going isn't really wise.

So yesterday I didn't go run like I intended even though he canceled our meetup and to make up for it my friend Taneshina and I went for a run this morning. FYI: Taneshina is a west point cadet in incredible shape, with great strength--enough to put me to shame. Like she's pumped!! LOL!

The bottom line is I will be pushing myself to exceed the minimum standards of the initial PT assessment during the first week of BCT.
