I had to think about this one myself. I think a good one for me would be- Having learnt lessons to obtain my goal that I shall never reach.
Spending silly amounts of time and money developing skills that I hope I never use.
The long road to ever lasting enlightment.
It has made me a better person than I used to be.
Keep practicing the little things.

I just like it.

LOL. That seems to sum up the Army experience as well.
As far as the OP's question.
"Don't bock with your face, hit the other guy more often than he hits you, pass on what you've learned, and don't be a jerk". _ S.D. Beck
Mr. Beck was one of my early teachers, as he had a rather colorful military background I had to edit the above a bit to make it appropriate for the forum. I asked him once for hit thoughts on his journey in the martial arts, what he had learned, what wisdom he could pass on...that was his reply.
I have never forgotten it and have tried to walk in that path.

It's about enjoying the journey...not the destination!
Learning and evolving is a lives journey, least we stagnate and fade away

Enjoying the journey and making progress, but the destination is always over the horizon, just out of sight.
remember that in a few weeks after that test.
