I GOT REJECTED BY THE NAVY

March 2020…I get off the phone with my recruiter after Learning there is a chance I can fly for the navy

As soon as I found out my dream of being a naval aviator was possible I began all the necessary things

Got a tutor for my written exam…check

Took my written exam and passed…check

Finished my degree with over a 3.0…check

Letters of recommendation…check

Written statement…check

Began taking flight lessons…check

Got Corrective eye surgery…check

Medically qualified…check

I was all in like never before

I wanted to be a naval pilot, this was my focus for the last year of my life

August 2021 roles around board results come out !

I’m so excited looking for my ship date, I’m just so happy I get to live this new experience become an officer in the navy

Then boom…

All those thoughts stopped once I saw my name under

“Not professionally recommended”

I soon realized that this dream of mine wasn’t going to become a reality right now

After over a year of work, eye surgery, money on flight lessons…no result…”fuck man”

I had a choice, I have a choice to sit around and WEEP about how I think I’m a great candidate and how I’m qualified, how I deserve this and that

But what the fuck is that gonna do? NOTHING

As soon as I saw that I didn’t get in…I said alright time to see where I went wrong

And go harder than I ever have in my fucking life

It’s moments like this where I don’t blame anyone because the reality is they are taking the best people for that position..

Who am I to question their process, there were probably some absolutely outstanding candidates for that class and whether I apply again or not, nothing will change that factor

But it’s time now to focus on getting my Private Pilots license, study harder, focus on growing my business.

I DIDN’T FAIL, I’m growing and getting better from this

One day I would love to fly for the military but that one day might not be for a while…

But if I just give up that one day is never going to come.

So STOP GIVING UP SO EASY AND FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU WANT IN THIS WORLD. With your fitness, relationships, wealth DON’T GIVE UP CAUSE I REFUSE.
NOW GO GET IT!
