7 LESSONS THE ARMY TEACHES US ABOUT SUCCEEDING IN LIFE

It is a well-known fact that the army training prepares you for the victory on the battlefield. But the experiences in the military teach you what no other organizations can.ย Here we look at 7 life lessons that we could imbibe from the military life.

The Army teaches valuable lessons that can be applied to success in life. Discipline is one of the key lessons, as individuals learn to prioritize and manage their time effectively. This helps them develop good habits and a strong work ethic that can lead to success in all areas of life. Teamwork is another important lesson, as individuals are taught to work together and rely on each other to achieve a common goal. This teaches the importance of collaboration and communication skills, which are critical in both personal and professional life. The Army also emphasizes mental and physical strength, as soldiers are trained to withstand difficult and challenging situations. This teaches individuals the importance of perseverance and resilience, which can help them overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. These lessons, combined with leadership skills and a strong sense of purpose, make the Army a valuable source of life lessons for anyone looking to succeed.

  • Resilience
    Sometimes it takes a hard fall to know where you really stand. It would be ignorant to think that one will succeed in all that he/she does. Failures are a part of your journey to success and the ability to cope with them is necessary. The army toughens you not only physically but also mentally and emotionally.
  • Deferentiality
    Through resilience, you achieve success. But it is necessary that you stay humble and not let the success get to your head. No matter how much you climb the ladders of success, the army teaches you to stay true to your roots.
  • Responsibility
    This is a major requirement and necessity in the army. You are accountable to anything you are responsible for. Responsibility is among the first values taught during your initial training. You could be leading a section or a command, but your dedication to fulfilling the responsibility is of utmost importance. ย

Contentment and Minimalism
What use is the castle you built if your mind still wanders in the countryside cottage! The army is not like every other typical 9-5 job. You improvise, adapt and learn to live with minimal resources. The results of this is a contented life wherein you have no time to whine about the tiny little things. Rather you appreciate what you have and live a happy life.

Leadership
Leaders are never born, theyโ€™re made.The ultimate goal of the army is to transform you into an effective leader. And make you a person who regards his team, his workplace and his duty before himself.

Amiability
This article would be incomplete without mentioning this major perk of being in the army. Back in school, you wished your teacher punished your friend along with you. But here it goes by the โ€œone for allโ€ policy, you mess up, get ready to be punished, but along with your entire batch. This instills a quality most people lack: the ability to befriend literally anyone. This also makes you realise the importance of teamwork.

Preparedness
To put it in other words, situational awareness. In the army, this could mean observing and identifying potential threats to your territory. But this is a quality that sticks with the soldiers forever. You see a person scanning the surroundings even while at a party? Thatโ€™s just a soldier being a soldier. In life, it is necessary to be ready for any obstacle that could head your way and the army does the job for you.

To conclude, your career in the forces may or may not give you a high salary and a luxury life but it prepares you for what we call โ€œLifeโ€.
