What are your goals and aspirations for 2016? Any Army Schools that you want to go to? Completing any degrees? Getting that 300 on APFT?

Finish this deployment, and then deploy again.
Getting selected for promotion to MSG would be great...but I would have to saying leaving a lasting impact on the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines I work with would be the absolute best. I have enjoyed serving in the Army and I would take out of all accolades and recognitions is just knowing that I have left a lasting and meaningful impression on the future of my MOS and my Army. I want to have inspired great leaders to go forward and do the same. That is my goal and what I aspire to do. "Victory Starts Here!"

MSG Wally Carmichael
SFC (Join to see) , That's how you get selected for MSG. Once I made the shift off what I wanted and started mentoring others to get where they wanted to get in life and in their career, I got promoted to MSG. Up to SFC it is all about you. Making points, going to schools etc. After that, it's no longer about you, it's about those who chose to follow you. If you look back and no one is willingly following you (asking for your advice etc.) then you need to make a shift. It sounds to me like you're on the right track.
All that being said, the promotion system is very subjective. By taking the path you've chosen, you're going to get much more satisfaction out of the rest of our career, rather you make that next rocker or not.
