Do any of these sound familiar:
"I am being medically discharged in the next couple of months and I am not sure what I will do for work."
"My retirement is hitting in a year and I will have to keep working to supplement my pension for the lifestyle that I want to maintain."
"I am sick of the military keeping me away from my family. I am ready to make my own way so I can be home with my wife and kids. My ETS date is not for another couple of years though. This is so frustrating."
"I know I need to do something once I get out of service but I have no idea how to decide on what to do."
"A friend gave me this Website's address and said that it would help me figure out what my next steps were for preparing to get out of the military."

There are numerous other books like his, but since I have read his and used it from a practical standpoint then that is the one I recommend starting with.
Let me know if you have any questions or want to do some one-on-one counseling (by phone, Skype, email, etc..). All services rendered are free. I can do group presentations too, such as:
