Everything can. Well. Everything is a gift and a curse, isn't it?

Yes, yes, yes, yeah, yeah. How do you create boundaries and then how – Do you move them? Fuck if I know. I mean, isn't that what this whole journey of life is about? How do I know what's best for me? And then how do I set boundaries according to that? And then how do I move them when I realize I need to move them a little bit? That's the key. Life's not static, so you have to move.

But, you know, we want it to be so static. I did love, I loved the military because they just tell you what to do. I mean, I loved Bud's because it was a real, it was a fucking crazy adventure, right? It was wild. It was an endless challenge. You're like, you never know what's going to happen as a Bud's student. But you also get just told what to do and you just do it.

Easier said than done. Easier said than done, yeah. Yeah, because I feel like my transition out, I did that same thing, but I used football and I used going to Northwestern and playing football. It was the same thing. You just do your job and you don't really have to make a whole lot of hard decisions. Isn't it easy? This is what I need to do today. That's it. Because my boss told me.

I got to be here at 6 a.m. just like I'm used to. And I get everything scheduled for me. Yeah. So that helps with the transition. But it does help to have something like that, that kind of scaffolds you into your new life. And you slowly are beginning to learn how to do what's best for yourself instead of what's best for the Navy, the country, your team. It just takes time. And it takes...

And it's great to have a few people at least that see it and they maybe have experienced it or at the very least they're super compassionate and gentle and they can just walk you through it and they can watch you stumble. They can watch you go through all the ups and downs, but they're just there for you. Like kind of like a dad.

It's nice if you've got somebody that can treat you like they're your father and they can slowly help you through some of these things.
