Developing Process

Some of the greatest things in world are created with process, for example: frozen pizzas. We all know the world has a structure and at some point in our life we realize what that all means. But it's not a bunch of people yelling at each other to get something done, it's a process.

Every successful system has its foundation, and that foundation is the process that makes it successful. How we develop a process and implement it isn't in the same step and neither of them are simple. Starting with a blank screen and spilling emotion won't get us far either. The first step is to find what the process is intended for, start brainstorming from that text.

Over several hours or throughout a couple days we should have a lot of ideas. Compile the ideas and organize in a way that's easy to follow. Utilize the process over and over until you've worked out all the kinks, omit things that are unnecessary and add things that may be essential. Make sure that the steps are simple, complicating the process may make it a burden, a burden is less likely to be conducted.

After an action is completed while using the process and it's 100% each time the process is carried out, then we know we have a functioning process. Keep a log of every time the process is used, and document what is made with each step of the process. Understanding and knowledge is key here not perfection.

Passion

The desire to accomplish a task, set forth by one's self, often influenced by others. The human nature to strive for what we need, by association with what we crave. Cravings aren't just consumables, they're everything you can touch or feel; with every device, claiming candidacy over the external drive. We find a passion for several sorts of hobbies common to men and women. The passion in writing, a similarity in the passion for reading. A like for words, meaning, understanding and wisdom, development for a better tomorrow and a glorious today.

Centuries of literature, languages abroad, does it bring the most important fact of writing, the ability to communicate. Speech and writing both represent the past, as no context is ever written in future or present. Tenses of present, past and future are illusions we create to aid in coping with our life situations. It's these situations that determine our passions, the passion for writing.

Pre-Writer's Cramp

It's been a long time coming, and everything has come to one moment, the momenth of truth. The before and after of writing perfection, or so it will seem. But it hasn't been about myself, but about the entire class and their development as writers. I have listeners of several natures, all consisting of internet browsers and researchers. My listeners might consist of my classmates, the instructor and whoever falls upon my blog. It's the end result that we're looking for, this epiphany that we all seem to have once or twice a year.

I've set my goals high and intend to meet them. Writing and speaking well is a first step to succeeding in this world of social interaction. Forums, chatting, seminars and meetings are what make up business and the marketplace, things no one can escape. But why stop there, education and the persuit of knowledge is what's really important, and as a final cut, my goal is a Ph.D. in Information Technology - Project Management.

Across all my texts, I've produced every relation to education, teaching or learning. All things considered, they're all related to my field: teaching. I consider my career choice an important one in the Marine Corps, and I'd like to think that I make a difference.

My texts have been formalized in essay form and because of my background they lean towards the look of a business/professional letter. We've been along for several weeks and I've discovered one simple truth; no matter how far one must go to acheive a goal, it's never impossible, one must always strive to reach it. With every outcome is a systematic step-by-step process to reach it, and each day makes the product a reality. "Carpe diem."

Discourse

Gaming
The Insurrection brought together every walk of life. The common field was gaming, and that field generated a game, a guild you call it, resurrected in Star Wars Galaxies in 2003. We ventured, quite literally, near and far, to find our guild members always at our side. The events held by The Insurrection, deemed honorable by the Rebellion, were a mockery of the Empire. The common ground of Star Wars fanatics combined with gamers, created a community no competitor could rival. Until their downfall in 2005, with an unfortunate reaction to a game upgrade, where every veteran player agreed to leave. Devastation from the developers brought additional changes, and the overall outlook was, in a nutshell: catastrophic. But The Insurrection, still stands strong today, only now, we spread across several different games, communities and platforms, with one thing in common: gaming.

Military
It's been six years and I haven't even noticed the time, where has it gone? I've always been told that "time flies", but I never truly believed it until this fall, when it hit me. I'm up for my next enlistment soon, do I stay or go? That is the big question, and what is everyone else saying to that question? Where's my bonus? That's what most members of the military are saying. Lateral moves and service changes are becoming extremely popular in this era, as each Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) and service has a different benefit. Must we waste away our skills to the lowest bidder? Why not grab the best deal and run with it? That's what so many have done in the past, must I be so different? This is a common battleground, although the retirement is enticing, and the honor to serve is rewarding, the stress is not. Moving isn't an issue, and never was, nor is it for any service member. It's the deployments that are tearing the military apart. Recruiting is all but nullified and all the services are attempting to increase their numbers in the next few years. This all sounds negative and discouraged, but in fact it's positive and reassuring. Promotions are high, bonuses are up and everyone is moving where they've always wanted to station. Win-win situation? In most cases yes, and if you ask any service member: Stay or go? They'll most likely say: "I'm a lifer."

Boy Scouts of America (BSA)
More than seven years I can count of inactivity from the BSA and all their counterparts. I dedicated 15 years to the BSA and attained the rank of Eagle. I followed my path through the challenges and hardships, and came out on top, everyone was proud. But I wasn't proud, I was expecting to achieve it, as though I had already earned it far before. I had already held positions much higher than my own, and received badges some would say were out of reach. Isn't BSA just a bunch kids playing with matches? Most would definitely say so, but it's a lot more than a lot make it out to be. It's not about the patches, the ranks or the parents; BSA is about the children, building character, making them men, men with decent morals. BSA is often linked to religion, most of the BSA Troops meet at churches, as a church is community and won't charge the Troop to meet there. As an Eagle I can say that BSA is an organization that's overlooked too often, and information is often avoided or misguided by the most in need.
