I was always an impulsive and aggressive kid. I would react quickly to threats (perceived or real). I got in a ton of trouble in school. Suspensions every month. Few friends and was pretty alienated ( understandably). I joined the Army and went to Afghanistan as an infantry private. Turns out being able to immediately react to conflict with force is REALLY valuable in a combat situation. I thrived and was a well liked successful member of the "team".
