I know, right? Those over achiever types are trouble. First, they complete all their goals. Next thing you know, they want to take over the world. Geez.

Well I just make Fun of her because she was my flight commander at NBB. Although, she probably could take over the world if she wanted to.

Haha you know I could! At Civic Leadership Academy this year, a bunch of us cadets planned a world take-over during dinner one night. The way we figured, I started out being the undercover hitman for the initial despot, and ended up supreme dictator! XD  lol now you know what happens when you get a bunch of over-achievers running on very little sleep together and give them twenty minutes of spare time.

Yay for another over-achiever! Good luck with your Spaatz, and have fun down under! Try to fit a life in there somewhere though with all your CAP stuff. ;-)

Cut back on my CAP participation.

So far I've been successful, but in checking my 101 I've got several quals that I'm going to need to renew this year.  One of them is my "regular" duty and won't be an issue, but I really don't know if its worth it to renew GT and UDF.  We have so few missions now that when we do have one it is usually big enough to need a mission staff, and thats where I am needed most.  If we still had a few ELT missions I might have some opportunities to go out on them, but I don't see it happening.  And, like in most of CAP the wing hasn't really taken the steps necessary to get us really involved in lost person searches. 

On the other hand, I am still young enough and in decent enough shape that it is very possible that I could be one of the few seniors with GT quals available in certain situations.  But, I've been holding on to them just for that reason for probably 5 years now and it hasn't been a factor yet. 

Guess I'm just losing confidence that my investment in personal time to CAP is worth it given the apparent lack of need for our services.  Not sure that a mission a year is going to keep my interest.  I fear that I"m halfway to ghost status.

Well, one step closer to Level V.
Level IV is out of the way.

[bosshawk]

Way to go, Tony!!!!!

[ThorntonOL]

Might rejoin by the end of next year, depends on if I have work still and if the funds are available.

[tsrup]

1)Get a Functioning Competition Color Guard Running and proficient.
2)Get at least half of my new cadets to encampment as GA's this year.
3)Recruit at least 5 new cadets.
4)Get a certain cadet up to c/Capt and keep him motivated beyond that.
5)Finish Level III
6)Try not to screw things up too badly as Commandant at this year's encampment.     

I know this is a thread resurrect, but since the year is coming to a close I thought it would be interesting to see how the goals panned out for everyone.

For myself
1)Not only stood up a team, but they won Wing Competition, very proud of these cadets.
2)Ended up taking half the squadron to Encampment this year.
3)Almost did that in October alone. 
4)Cadet is now a c/Capt, and currently does not have time for CAP at the moment, as he is at UND now.
5)Figures, the one thing I didn't accomplish is the one that directly benefits me
6)And I think I did a pretty good job, but I may be a little biased.  99.99% completion rate (one cadet had a bad ear infection on the second day of encampment, which ended with him returning home early)

And new goals for 2012:
1)Coach my CG team well enough for them to win Region Comp
2)Form 91 ride
3)Continue with a positive recruiting effort
4)At least 2 new mitchell cadets, and get the current mitchell cadets to c/Capt
5)Facilitate a chance for our cyber patriot team to make it to nationals
6)return as Commandant to this coming year's encampment
7)Senior rating in CP and ES
8)Finish Level 3

To pick a math nit...you had 10,000 cadets at your encampment?
