Say that one more time, I didn't quite hear you.

Again.

A little louder please.

Good.

Now what are you going to do?

Little brother, decide now the path you're going to take, and regardless of events beyond your control, decisions made by others, circumstances, etc.,you have the ability to control your own life. What you must do, and do for yourself is replace one action with another. When you would normally take a tablet, say to yourself, "maybe later, not now, I want to run." When the doc asks, "How are you feeling", say to him, "better, when I can exercise".

Trust me when I say, the anger, the fear, the anxiety, and all the stress from that event will pass and evently go away. I would not trust a soldier who didn't retain some level of edginess, that my young friend will keep you alive. Trust your gut, trust your team.

Everything you need to be successful is here, friends, coaches, mentors and a few old guys too.

Stay focused, you'll do well.
