Respawned and Ready

[Horatio Spifflewicket]

I started in the academy on Thursday, July 12th.  The gulf between the idea and the action was too large for an unassisted jump with an encumbrance penalty.  

 

Rolled a critical fail on engaging support systems.

 

The truth is, if the mind is not ready.  Is not REALLY ready, then the encumbrance will grow with each new pair of underpants collected.

 

This time, I learned that I can't do it in isolation, and that I MUST get the mind and spirit ready before anything else can follow.

 

I may be back here again.  Each time, I'll try to add an item to the list.

 

Life before Death.  Strength before Weakness.  Journey before Destination.

 

Hard earned, hard fought, and harder won.

Grows river-long before it's done

Each step, each breath, each hill traversed

Must be purchased from the first

to the final leap and land

taking vic'try in the hand

The lessons learned here stand declared

For next respawn to be prepared.

 

The List of Respawn Knowledge

1. Do it because you WANT it, for yourself, and nobody else.

2. It's dangerous to go alone. Bring allies.

Rooting for you from a neighboring battlefield. I like your spirit and look forward to seing more of your adventures as you go.

`If the mind is not ready, the body cannot fool the mind into doing something it does not want for the mind controls the body. This is why the academy begins with the mindset quests.  The uncoscious mind is very sneaky!!!
