I’m currently in the army reserves as a 92F in the process of going Active Duty .
I’m looking for Any Tips Or Recommendations For a Soldier who’s willing to give his life to the army .
I see my self doing over 20+ in the army until the army kicks me out . I want to be the best NCO , Officer or Warrant Officer that I can be what ever life throws at me . I’m willing to go to any Special School or reclassing to a different MOS in order to become a Better Soldier and Leader in the future .

You have an admirable goal, SPC (Join to see), and I commend you for it. Many others have given great advice, so I won’t attempt to revisit or rehash what’s already been offered. I will say this, however. Give yourself time. Don’t be afraid to stop on occasion and reassess your situation. Davy Crockett said, “Be always sure you're right — THEN GO AHEAD!” (Just stop every now and then to check your azimuth.)

All I’m waiting for is to find somebody who would give me the chance to go active and allowed to proof my self . I know for sure that I want a career in the army . That’s why I just keep trying and trying until I get my my conditional release .
Thank you so much for your advice !

Be in the right place, at the right time, in the right uniform, and with the right attitude. Do this consistently and you'll run this place one day.

Become the most valuable Soldier in your unit. Go to EVERY school you can, and take advantage of every opportunity...even if you don’t see immediate results. You can NEVER go wrong taking a course, school, distance learning or resident. It all adds up and you soon will rise above your peers. It all pays off in the end.
