What kind of obstacles did you faced?
How did you overcame them?
What would you had done differently?
Did you had an exit strategy? Do you mind sharing?

When I first got out of the Army, I was really impatient with civilians -- many of them seemed to move too slowly and become overwhelmed easily. But to be fair, part of it could have been my perception and being used to Army folks moving with urgency and being squared away.

The thought of walking a long lonely path into the future because I can't seem to engage life with passion.

I thought helping veterans and people with PTSD would help me bask under the sunshine of accomplishment but it was short lived. The only thing now that gets me pumped up is watching Texas A&M football. People often say you got to smell the roses, bask in nature, feel love, but it does not impact me very much except to acknowledge what is existing before me. However don't feel sorry for me as I have gratitude I am not worse off.

Learning to deal with whiny backstabbing civilians who will go to your supervisor when they have a problem with you. If you've got a problem with me, tell me. If I have to hear it from my supervisor I've lost all respect for you.
Also learning to deal with their work ethic, or lack thereof, much like the other posters here. Which is why I work for a defense contractor where all of my fellow contractors are also veterans and our customers are active duty.
