Your heart is in the right place & it is admirable that you want to devote 20 years of your life in service to your country. There is a lot to be said to that especially in the society that we live in today.
However, what the Colonel wanted you to understand is that you don't walk into a room full of battle-harden warriors & tell them that you're going to do this & that.
Learn to focus on your 25 meter target. If you do not understand what that means, do a search & then apply that principle in your military career.
Also a little humility will take you further here.
Welcome on board.
