I’m mapping a 12-week plan with a sergeant separating on 15 May, and the toughest hurdle isn’t the résumé — it’s what 0600–0900 looks like without formation, chow, or the duty phone. This adjustment trips a lot of folks up, and it’s fixable with small, scheduled anchors. If you’ve separated recently, what single habit or calendar block made your first 30 days feel steady, and what do you wish you’d slotted in sooner?
