DEPS pay attention!--Cultivate a Spirit of Excellence

Cultivate a Spirit of Excellence
Inherent in the call to become a Ranger is the call to excellence. It has little to do with IQ, backgrounds, culture, situations, or finances. It has everything to do with the will: the will to be obedient, disciplined and faithful.

In the same way parents glory in the abilities and achievements of their children, so we Rangers glory in the effectiveness and success of those we mentor.

Thank you Ranger Capellanus. Taken to heart.

Them thar words are words of Gold Gentlemen.

All Y'all should Hand Write (read-don't just hit the print button) this post that Ranger Capellanus has been so gracious to give you. And then stick it to your bathroom mirror, and read it every day...then, when it get's all screwed up and nasty from your Hair Gel, Hand Cream, and Foo Foo juice, rewrite it and place it there again.
Just a little hint....
