The price of freedom is the willingness to do sudden battle anywhere, any time and with utter recklessness. -R.A. Heinlein

Think outside the box



In training, we were constantly being told, "Think outside the box. Think outside the box." We were trained our mind is the best weapon. Everything else was just a tool for the weapon to use. No matter how stupid it looks, if it works, it isn't stupid. Like wise, if your in a situation, it doesn't matter how stupid what your doing seems if it works. No matter what you did, if it got you through, you did everything the right way. You'll always have regrets about what you did, and how you would change it, but the fact you got through means you did everything right.

Always, think outside the box. Its amazing what you'll find. In combat, fast, decisive, outside the box thinking keeps you alive. Like wise, when you run into a particularly messy situation, fast decisive, outside the box thinking will save yours, and others, lives.
