When you join the military, life changes fast. Good-bye, civilian life. Hello, military life. No civilian gear. Standard issue clothing. No individual hairstyles. Limited contact with family and friends. (No calling mom during boot camp sessions.) No personal possessions: no camera, no watch, no designer sunglasses. Regimented schedule. Stricter laws with stiffer punishment than civilian life. Move when and where you’re told. Carry out orders without expressing your personal opinion.

Why so strict? Because soldiers can’t afford distraction. Soldiers can’t afford the luxury of individual freedom because it distracts them from the mission.

eliminate the distractions and change the world
