To first explain why or how my general orders are important to me I must relay the
purpose of the General Orders, which is to basically outline tasks, accountability, and
responsibility for a soldier. The first General Order issues the command to secure everything

better and more effective soldier for my family, friends, and community. Some things I could
start by doing is getting up at 6am every morning. Doing this I feel that I will have enough time
to plan my entire day out and make time for any unexpected changes life may throw at me, that
way I will at least be prepared for it. Another simple but major life change I would do is have my
clothes out the night before that way my clothes will already be ready to go instead of thinking
