The Program
Revised: March 18, 2010
The FOCUS ProgramFOCUS (Families OverComing Under Stress) is a
resiliency-building program designed for military
families and children facing the multiple challenges
of combat operational stress during wartime.
FOCUS promotes family strengths and supports
parents to help manage the challenges of military
life. FOCUS was developed at the UCLA Semel
Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior
in collaboration with the National Center for Child
Traumatic Stress and Children’s Hospital Boston/
Harvard Medical School.
Deployments affect both the service
member and the family as routines
and roles are disrupted. Children may
experience challenges before, during
and after a parent’s deployment.

Professional Freedom is based on recognizing the
choices we have and taking responsibility for
them. Not making a choice is still a choice.
You may hate your job, you are still choosing to get
up and go to your place of work every day. You
might be saying at this moment, “he doesn’t under-
stand, I have to pay the bills, or keep a roof over
my head. I do understand, you are actually choos-
ing to earn money over not showing up for a job
you don’t like There is no judgment in this choice,
it sounds like a responsible one. It is not a circum-
stance that is happening independently, it is a
choice you are making. When you don’t own the
choices in your life, you start to consider yourself a
victim, and it becomes easy to blame other people,
or circumstances for your situation. This kind of
thinking is disempowering, it is giving away your
freedom, and will keep you stagnant for a long
time.
Commuters generally take the same route to work
every day. You have probably found the timeliest
route and it has become a habit. You are choosing
to use that route every day. We can choose how to
respond to someone who cuts us off in traffic, says
something we disagree with, or doesn’t do their
job. How and whether you respond is up to you. If
someone does something you don’t like, you
choose how to react or respond, how long you want
to hang on to it, and how much energy you want to
give to it. Three is no rule, or law of the universe
that even says you have to give it a second
thought. It is actually when our emotions run high
that we have the opportunity to be our strongest.
Land of the Free Land of the Free
and Home of the Braveand Home of the Brave Choose Career Freedom
“No one is coming to solve life’s problems for you. If you do not do something different, nothing is going to
get better. Happy people are typically pro-active. They do not passively wait for someone else to do some-
thing. They take initiative in the pursuit of whatever is important to them. They do not wait for the world or
someone else to make them happy, which they know is impossible.” –Nathaniel Branden
This is when the urge to say or do something feels so
compelling, it almost doesn’t feel like a
choice. Sometimes our reaction is so quick, the
choice may even be just below our conscious-
ness. You can still bring awareness to it, and decide
how you want to proceed.
Are you expecting your company or boss to look after
you, because you have been so loyal and done such a
great job? There isn’t any person or organization
that will look out for your interests better than you
can. At any moment you can choose to start taking care
of yourself, taking responsibility for your life, and your
choices. This is where you stop blaming others in your
past or your present; you recognize a white knight or
fairy godmother is not coming to rescue you. You pre-
sent situation is the result of choices you made, you can
also make choices that will change your current cir-
cumstances if they are not to your liking.
This is when a person grows up. It is a scary prospect
to take responsibility for one’s life, career, and espe-
cially of your dreams. There isn’t anyone that can
make your dreams happen for you, there isn’t any other
person that is concerned with doing this. Even if there
were, the most empowering thing you can do for your-
self is to act is if there weren’t, and go out and make
them happen yourself. Who knows whether they will
happen. Taking responsibility for them, what needs to
be done, will in itself be transformative.
Go out and try it
for a day, week,
month, year. Just
take responsibil-
ity for your
choices, your life,
and your dreams.
