Broke Through - Tenacity

Been over three years since I started drilling now and this is my progression. This was made for my annual series of progression videos known as the "Breaking Through" journey.

This year I really focused on the friends, family, and mentors that I have around me not just in drill but in my life. This year has been a hardship for me as I started my journey with the military but the people around me continue to support and inspire me to keep pushing. Different from the videos in the past where I try to find myself, here I can finally see myself developing into the leader and role model I want to be as I progress.

The word "Break Through" is what I was searching for in the first video, I worked through all the struggles to try and find that "Break Through" which is why I named it "Breaking Through" as I am trying to literally form/fit myself in the drill, Breaking through the beginning. This before this is named differently as (to myself at least) finally found a "Break through." For this one, I "Broke Through" the challenges set before me and finally feel like I accomplished something for myself.

Definition of Tenacity:

I pick all my songs with the purpose of what I feel in each video. In this case, it's a love song talking about the doubt about your self-worth and how complicated love can be. I have a correlation with this and my drill.
