TOP HABITS TO GIVE UP BEFORE JOINING THE MILITARY.



Hi reader. You might be planning to join your country military or you are already on the verge of joining your nation armed force or paramilitary. Check out this tip to help you.
Here are the habits you should do away with before joining the military.

1. DISOBEDIENCE: When we were kids, we love this attitude whereby our parents warn us  from doing certain things but out of sheer curiosity, we defy orders so resulting to disobedience. The idea of grumbling due to so many house chores directed for us to do, a young lad can do his house chores gracefully but grumbling set in when the lad discovered that he is being cheated because his elder or younger sibling is not given the same level of task as he was given, so he begins to grumble and refuse to do the chore. In the military total obedience will be enforced without objection so you are likely not going to be opportune to escape orders by defying or else you face deadly consequence. Enforced obedience is a critical theme especially among the NCO (non-commissioned officers) where they have to obey the administrative power. So I urge you today to start giving absolute obedience from whosoever is in charge of you, maybe teacher, parent, and guardian. If you refuse this advice, I can guarantee you that you will be taking orders from People that are not up to your parents’ age.

2. CARELESSNESS AND HYPERACTIVENESS: If you happen to be somebody that often misplace things, forget things or over do things, you’ve got to do away with this phenomenon for now, can you imagine a person in a bomb disposal unit to be hyperactive, he would wreak havoc instead of prevent havoc. Don’t start a race before the trigger is pulled a cliché goes, many soldiers have died at warfronts due to carelessness and mediocrity at the frontlines, we have heard of stories of a soldier mistakenly pull of the pin of its grenade, or airstrikes performed on friendly forces due to the carelessness of the drone operator, we have heard of accidents like that of a soldier in charge of the armoury that smoke cigarettes close to the gas plants. If you are careless person and you join the military you will die for nothing and newspaper might honour you as a hero, you are a damn failure, it’s honourable to die by enemy fire than by one’s foolishness. Train yourself now to be careful and moderate in what you do.

3. SLUGGISHNESS: If you fall into this category, you better hustle up or you will get knocked out by fast moving activities, being sluggish is not a good attitude it waste time and frustrate superior officers. Imagine how it look like if a state house is being raided by terrorist so special force agents were called in to intervene but sluggishness kept them at bay for 1 hour for the terrorist to have honeymoon with the poor statesmen. Any way nobody with sluggishness can make his/ her way into any country special force. A sniper so damn sluggish in reloading his rifle will get killed by the enemy sniper that is as fast as snipe, imagine an infantry man against an incoming tank, the infantry man out of ammo but with an unloaded anti-tank missile, the only solution the infantry man needs beside accuracy is not being sluggish. You are a man not a snail or tortoise common you are a potential soldier, a super solder so you should act like one.


4. WAKING UP LATE: In the sole of business, punctuality is key. In the civilian world many youths are used to staying late at night watching films and playing video games therefore waking up late, many youths have developed the attitude of waking up at no specific time, anytime is a time for them to wake up which is mostly beyond normal time to wake up. In basic military training candidates rarely have sleep, you close your eyes the moment and the next moment you are up to face strenuous activity. Even after military training punctuality still play a key role, NCO wake up as early as 4 or 5 am to do start duties after workouts. Start setting your alarm as early as 4 am and sleeps early for you have a heavy day ahead.

5. UNTIDINESS AND UNHEALTHY PRACTICE: The military is an abode of amazing neat and orderly men; pigs are an exception. When you see a naval officer in his awesome uniform, you feel dazzled by the sparkling white attire he is clothed in and the shining shoes. If you take time to ask the guy few questions, you will discover the routine he adhere to attain this neat status. You hate to iron press your clothes every day and you are going into the military! Polishing boots is not your habits! Your room always in total mess and you want to join the military; you have to start learning to be tidy. You may visit war veterans home go to their libraries and you will see that tidiness is a gene they inherited from the military even after leaving the military behind, their books are arranged orderly, their wardrobe line up like a battalion on a parade ground. Some military aspirants most especially in Africa have this kind of selfish attitude where they believe they would join the military as a commissioned officer either by attending a military academy or obtaining a degree so that they can be in a position to make NCO do their dirty jobs majorly the laundry of their clothes and other menial duty required. That’s a privilege but your eyes shouldn’t be there if you are untidy yourself, you haven’t even join the military and you having such opinion, cool! But remember the way to the top is rough. Start being Tidy right now.
          Talking about health you should avoid alcohol, cigarettes, stimulants and abusive drugs before going for a medical screening because it obvious you are going to get screened out due to health conditions. Stop consuming too much sugar, focus on natural food and exercise if you are suffering from obesity. Stop harmful things that would disqualify from medical screening.






6. DISLOYALTY: That attitude you develop as a civilian that can date 3 to 5 boyfriends/ girlfriends at once and appearing as if you are loyal to one. That attitude should stop now because you can’t take it to the military. At least a saying goes “You can’t serve two masters at the same time”. If you pledge allegiance to your nation military, make sure your yes is YES! And your no be NO! Imagine pledging allegiance to 5 separate armed forces of different nations, you are plying with death that will be called spying you will be charged with Treason!!! No wander those military bad eggs misguided by greed find themselves working for gangs and feeding vital information to armed robbers. They end up being court-martialed and face the consequence. In the rules of aide-DE-camp your senior is your lord, you should serve him wholeheartedly, before he dies make sure you are dead first though your own initiative is demanded in some situation. Maybe I should test you: in any religion you find yourself try 1 month of absolute loyalty to your holy book rules and let’s see how you can fare.



7. LAZINESS AND FEAR:No lazy man is in the military if not life is hell for him. What you are aspiring for as a military man demand serious hard work that   shouldn’t be mixed with indolent attitude. It requires extreme Physical demands to keep you through tough times, mental demands to let you make decisions during peril moments. At training camp instructors make sure they push you to your extreme limits. They give you 150%/100% to make you a tough dude, they make sure you reach the muscle failure stage and still continue, do you think the lazy will keep up with process like this. You will go through reiterated hazardous training that deserting will be almost be wise option for you. Standing all day at parade ground isn’t pleasant to you, even a drone operator that sits all day performing his duty ran all the race of his life before he got to that position. You better stop being lazy now for you have a tough time ahead of you.
            Do you hate being in the dark or you hate confrontations, you are even scared to the point that you can’t fight for your life from a skilled psycho that’s want to kill you, you are scared of talking to someone superior than you. That’s funny because in the military fear is your closest neighbour that you must learn to face it. Fear have killed many soldiers before the enemy fire even reach them, fear kill faster than weapon. If you are applying to be in the combat unit or its obvious that you will be transferred to a combat zone you better start learning how to deal with fear.  Watch horror movie and check maybe you will flinch, participate in activities that will induce fear in you but you better use your initiative.

Well thank you for reading but if you happen to bring the opposite of those points above into the military, you will either be thrown out of the window or the military will throw the crap! Out of you.
You can add your own points in the comments section. Don’t forget to share.

THE CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS PATROITIC CALL.

Image result for christian soldier




                Hi, guys I am your top military niche blogger Afolabi Micheal and today I have for you a very special and weird post today as it may seem to you. Today post is on religion, when many hear of this religion stuff they shut down, block their ears ignore, scroll down or go away from the website. Pls, you can go out if you know that the world is safe with our armed forces, the armed forces are trying their best to protect their territory from external aggression but the sacrifices are too much, the death toll. You may stop reading this post if you are happy with the way defenders of our nations die in war. Religion here will be Christianity for now. Let me not be biased here before some human rights advocates charge me of inciting a religious violence, ignore my religion for now whether am a Christian, Muslim or a Taoist or a Buddhist that’s none of your business for now or you might be looking at my name Micheal unh! A Christian name. Forget that for now because am a voice crying in the wilderness.
            To the Christian soldier, Hello born and bred in Christianity, whether you attend morning mass, altar boy or you baptized by holy spirit or water, you are a Christian serving your nations army whether U.S.A, Nigeria, Britain, Germany, France, India or whatever, you are a Christian right! You are taught all the principles of the bible, but you are in the army but you don’t walk in the way your bible says simply because you are part Zion and part Babylon, you carry no anointing on your military career. If you don’t know everybody was called but called into different unit to serve the kingdom of God. You don’t have to be a pastor, pope or whatever before you can work miracles with God’s anointing. You are in the military so the Military is your ministry that God have given you to act on it but devil have given you sin to tap out your anointing from you.
You rely so much on technology, heavy weapons, martial arts, gears, air support, war skills but you forget your supreme source God! Jehovah who created the heaven and earth. I am not saying martial art, counter insurgency training or any other military training is not relevant, my point is what position did you put your God. The bible is no fiction book. There is an excuse people give that God can’t help in modern battles, people do quote Mike Tyson words which says “God take no sides in fight”. Mike Tyson was no affiliate of preaching the gospel so why should you rely on that, after all quotes are like pills that just can’t be applied on any ailments just because it a drug.
            Your God is a living and your God is almighty! Jehovah is the true God of war yet the culprit behind every war is the devil. Are you not tired of losing course mates at war, those bomb blast moments, the mortar strikes, the pains, the boredom, the PTSD, the heroic moment where you rise against all odds and do the impossible when outnumbered the next thing you realise is that you are awarded flashy medals and fame but when you leave the military, you watch the news headlines just to discover that the war still continues, all this led to frustration and you begin to question the role you played in defending your nation, questions like why did I lay so much sacrifices yet those dirty politicians on TV are meandering deadly policies that are bringing catastrophe to the nation.
 Aren’t you fed up of doing 500 pull ups, running 3000 miles, doing monstrous training that make you feel on top of the world but when outnumbered you discover that you are incapable of mustering a ripple. Turn to God, turn to your God Mr. Soldier because the greatest of any man is still a man no matter what!
            Where are the Samsons of our modern days, imaging killing a Lion with bare hands- no practise involved, no martial arts of any sort. Samson used just the jawbone of an ass to show thousands of philistine soldiers the way to hell (judges 15:14). These days we have chaplains at every barracks, born again soldiers that can preach every nook and cranny of the bible but when it comes to war, they end up telling you to face reality and forget the bible times.
            Hell no things still happen but no one is doing it the right way. Fasting all day, untarnished righteousness, get rid of things of the flesh, avoiding pornography, unceasing prayer, facing strong temptations, being the odd among worldly people, no Christian soldier is willing to go through all this but when it comes to the physical, they can push hard during strenuous physical training, lift weight and dumbbells, go several days without food all in the name of training, smash hands against bricks and palm trees and then pledge unalloyed loyalty and obedience to superior officers and nation. Their loyalty to God is filthy, they are like repented whores that you marry but keep catching them cheating on you after forgiveness of all previous acts. Strong physically but weak and fragile spiritually.
            I am not saying military training are not necessary, they are physically necessary but spiritually you need a higher power that is superb in the realm of the spirit. So funny to discover that some churches detest it members in participating in war or serving in the military, fine! We know the bible says the whole world is being controlled by influence of Satan and his army however the same bible proves to us that God’s Supremacy is sovereign and will continue to protect those that does his will. There is nothing wrong to see a well-seasoned Christian soldier foresees an incoming invasion or discover where the most wanted terrorist is hiding. Let’s take America for example after 9/11 attacks Osama Bin-laden was chased for a long number of years before being hunted down. Are there no Christians in the army or what went wrong, too much of emphasis placed on technological and war experienced to take down bin laden so God attention was not called upon I guess! Remember the story of Deborah in the bible- the fall of Sisera at Jael hands, if that’s a dumb story how about the red sea incident. The most exciting history is that of prophet Elijah and the soldiers sent to capture him, the fire that devoured the soldiers until they gave up (II kings 1-12) or the Assyrians that were slew by an angel of God (II Kings 19:35) or the war God helped Gideon to win by reducing his army (judges 7:25). Hello Christian soldiers I want you to remember that the battle is not yours (II chronicles 20:15).
            War on terrorism have been in existence since it started and it seems to have no end. Look at men that achieved awesome feats against all odds. Marcus lutrell, Cpl Dipprasad Pun, Joe crow, Punjabi Fazal Din, Paddy Mayne, Leo major, Simo Haya, Chris Ryan, Lev shetakov, Chris Kyle, Capt. Upham did their best in their war military careers but not without sacrifices- dead comrades, one arm, cracked skull and even reaching the point of death but miraculously saved. This guys are heroes but Like I said earlier the best of any man is still a man. God is the best avenger and there is none like him. Call on him, ask for the holy spirit directions in your operation. You might not necessarily shoot a gun let alone toss a grenade before victory. let me list:
 How about being a military surgeon gifted with the healing power to heal wounded soldiers and even win souls at the hospital bed.
Look at God awesomeness in II kings 19:35-6 or the story of Jericho. You know how silly it looks going to battle without a weapon but just trumpet and priests that’s damned ridiculous for modern war fare but however I implore you to know that the only limitation to God miracle or intervention is common sense. Cut down the sin that is limiting your impact on your relationship with God. There is this famous story about Alexander the great. In one of his conquest against Persia, he was conquering territories after territories until his soldier were weary, at this point a battle was to be fought the next day and Alexander the great knew that his soldiers were weary and this could to lead to a defeat, so he ordered that the bridge behind a valley where his army encamp should be cut down. In this case since the bridge is cut down the soldiers knew that when the war gets tough they have no option to flee back since the bridge to use as escape route have been cut down so the only option is Fight and slay all the enemies to get to the other side of the valley apparently victory is then established. The same thing as to go to you, cut down the bridge so that you can’t run away from God discipline, care, laws and love.
Here are testimonies of battle that was won through divine intervention.
 THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE
1.One of the bloodiest battles during World War II happened in the Belgian town of Bastogne in 1944 where the German army cornered American soldiers in a surprise attack.
12,000 American soldiers were encircled and trapped by the Germans, and it was up to US Third Army Gen George Patton to break the siege and rescue the 12,000 soldiers in Bastogne, promising that he would grease up his tanks with the guts of the Nazi soldiers.
A plan was already in place but, unfortunately for Patton, the weather had been relentlessly unforgiving. For an entire month, torrential rains pounded Belgium, and the chances of Patton’s troops marching into Bastogne were slowly being swept away by the waters. All Patton needed to be was 24 hours to send the Third Army to storm the town, rescue the 12,000 soldiers, and tear down the Nazi defenses.
Since no amount of screaming and cursing at the sky could stop the rains, Patton had to resort to an unconventional approach by commissioning Third Army chaplain Col James O’Neill to draft a prayer for him which he then distributed to his troops on wallet-sized cards. For the next few days, Patton ordered his troops to recite the prayer as they waited for the rains to let up.
Whether or not Patton’s unorthodox approach worked and summoned the God to stop the rain, the weather cleared, and his troops were given just enough time to break through the Nazi encirclement, save the trapped American troops, and reclaim Bastogne for the Allied forces.
No matter what the opinion is about the events surrounding the Battle of the Bulge, it was undoubtedly one of George Patton’s finest hours in the Second World War.

2.Greece is no stranger to the occasional invading army and bloody war against neighboring countries. With its trove of knowledge and wealth, the Ancient Greeks have always been one of history’s prime targets. Greece’s most formidable foe were the Persians.

In 492 BC, Greece came dangerously close to crumbling under the forces of the Persian army. Led by the Persian General Mardonius, Persia’s naval fleet was able to sail close to the island of Athos. Fortunately for the people of Athos, Poseidon was on their side. As if on cue, a wild hurricane swept the sea and in the blink of an eye, capsized and destroyed the Persian fleet killing 20,000 soldiers! It was believed Persia’s hubris brought this catastrophic end to their fleet. As the weather was already proving fickle when they reached Athos, the rains turned into a full-fledged storm.
While there have been many attempts by the Persians to set foot on Greece by way of the sea, this particular one may have succeeded if not for the winds blowing in favor of the Ancient Greeks.

3. THE PROTESTANT WIND

The political relations between Protestant England and Catholic Spain were already turning sour, and if not for the urging of Church leaders during the 16th Century, Spain may have saved herself from utter humiliation.
In one desperate attempt to subjugate Elizabeth I and England, King Philip II of Spain ordered the Spanish Armada to set sail to dethrone Elizabeth and claim the country in the name of the Catholic Church and the Spanish crown.
Despite the fact that Spain was no match for the English naval fleet, they continued to press on, and by the time they reached the English Channel, a storm that seemed to come out of nowhere battered the Spanish Armada, sinking ships and driving the survivors off.
Many from both sides who witnessed the event took the storms as a sign of intervention from God as Spain was pushed back and humiliated by what history dubs as “The Protestant Wind,” a sign that Providence greatly favored England and its Virgin Queen.

4.THE DIVINE WIND


If it weren’t for a helping hand from the heavens, Japanese culture would never have existed.
In 1247, the Mongol Empire had already conquered one-third of the globe and had cemented their power with one of the most formidable armies the world has ever seen.
As the Mongol army advanced further east unopposed, their next target was bringing down the Japanese Empire and annexing it to their strongholds in China. With inferior weapons and significantly fewer troops, Japan did not stand a chance against Kublai Khan’s fierce warriors and their allies.
As the Mongols sailed towards the shores of Japan with Korean allies, Japan sent as many forces as it could muster to defend its seawall. With what seems to be a losing battle, fortune turned its head towards Japan as the Mongol fleet sensed a storm brewing fast.
True enough, two typhoons came to the rescue of the Japanese Empire and decimated Kublai Khan’s rapidly advancing fleet.
The violent tempest, dubbed the Kamikaze or Divine Wind by the Japanese, left 13,000 soldiers dead and the remaining Mongol ships were sent fleeing back to Chinese shores.
 I think those testimonies are enough. there are several others too.

Some might say God is merciful so he doesn’t want Christian to kill, Go and ask your pastors the number of witches and magicians that died during a spiritual confrontation with them. Consider these stories from the new testament – what happened to Ananias and sapphire, or how Bar-Jesus got blind or the angel of God that turn a rescue Ops to release Peter from prison. How about you patrolling the jungle and a viper bit you in the hand, instead of yelling for a medic! Apostle Paul of the bible times shook the viper into the fire, Paul didn’t spare the viper to live, moreover Paul was alive, hale and hearty. You are a soldier and you should know that you might be required to kill especially in terms of war. Instead of killing how about using the power of God to neutralize the enemy and then start preaching the world of God into his life or deliver him to the authorities.                   Image result for christian soldier     War is ugly sometimes caused by selfish nature of man, crazy dictators, stupid politicians, hate speech. When the deed is done innocent people that didn’t start the fight will be required to fight in the fight. Muslim brothers and other religion brothers too are not left out of this case, if you believe so much in your religion then I believe you should call on what you believe to help you in your military career because the greatest of any man is still a man. Christian soldiers arise! Now your nation need you effectively, you are an envoy of God presence, take that presence to war and end all this bull shit once and for all or reduce it to minimum.

APPLYING THE SUN TZU ART OF WAR TO DAILY LIFE

                     
Sun Tzu was a legendary military strategist in ancient China and he is the author of the famous book, The Art of War. He was a master of “soft power” and the father of “agile warfare.” Whenever possible, he preferred to win without fighting or, at the very least, to win the easiest battles first.

He wrote, “In war, the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won.” He advised his troops to “make your way by unexpected routes and attack unguarded spots.” And he further stated, “Military tactics are like water. For water, in its natural course, runs away from high places and hastens downwards. So, in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and strike at what is weak.”
sunThe teachings of Sun Tzu extend far beyond the field of battle because they are focused on finding the easiest way to achieve a specific goal. His approaches can be applied to everything from business growth and goal setting to weight loss and habit formation.
Let's talk about how to apply military strategy to our daily lives.
 

The Battle for Better Habits

Too often, we try to build new habits, achieve big goals, and otherwise “win at life” through sheer force. We fight our battles directly and attack the enemy — in this case, our bad habits — at the point where they are strongest.
For example:
  • We try to follow a strict diet while we are out to dinner with friends.
  • We try to write a book in a noisy environment.
  • We try to eat healthy in a house filled with sweets and sugar.
  • We try to do our homework with the television on.
  • We try to concentrate while using a smartphone filled with social media apps, games, and other distractions.
And when we fall off course and fail to achieve our goals, we blame ourselves for “not wanting it badly enough” and for not having enough willpower. In many cases, however, failure is not a result of poor willpower, but a result of poor strategy.
Good military leaders start by winning easy battles and improving their position. They wait until the opposition is weakened and morale is low before they take on their foe directly. Why start a war by fighting battles in areas that are well-defended? Why start new habits in an environment that makes progress difficult?
Sun Tzu would never lead his army into a battle where the terrain was not to his advantage. He would not begin by attacking the point where the enemy is strongest. Similarly, we should make easy improvements to our habits first, build our strength, and establish a better position from which to attack the most difficult changes.

Sun Tzu, Master of Habits

Let's adapt Sun Tzu's teachings to building better habits.
Example 1:
  • Sun Tzu: “You can be sure in succeeding in your attacks if you only attack places which are undefended.”
  • Adapted: “You can be sure in succeeding in your habits if you only build habits which are easy to maintain.”
Example 2:
  • Sun Tzu: “He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.”
  • Adapted: “He will improve his behavior who knows which habits to start with and which ones to leave for later.”
Example 3:
  • Sun Tzu: “A clever general, therefore, avoids an army when its spirit is keen, but attacks it when it is sluggish and inclined to return.”
  • Adapted: “A clever person, therefore, avoids the areas where bad habits are strongest, but attacks them where they are weak and easy to change.”

Fight Battles You Are Destined to Win

Becoming better is not simply a matter of willpower or work ethic. It’s also a matter of strategy. What people assume is a lack of willpower or an unwillingness to change is often a consequence of trying to build good habits in bad environments.
  • If you are trying to read more books, don’t do it in a room filled with video games, Netflix, and a television. Move to a less distracting environment.
  • If you’re very overweight, don’t try to follow a workout program for college athletes. You can get there eventually, but that’s not a battle you need to fight right now. Start with a manageable change.
  • If you’re surrounded by people who tear down your goals, then work on your projects in a different location or reach out to like-minded people.
  • If you’re trying to stick to a writing habit when your kids are home from school and your house is in chaos, then work on it at a different time. Switch to a time of less resistance.
Build your habits where it is easy to do so. Re-define the situation. Create a game where the odds are stacked in your favor.
It sounds simple, but how often do you find yourself fighting difficult battles and ignoring easy ones? There is plenty of time to fight the difficult battles. Win the easy battles first.
The smartest path is to improvement is the one of least resistance. Fight battles you are destined to win.

FIRE DISCIPLINE- A MILITARY THEOREM TO APPLY IN EVERYDAY LIFE



Image result for fire discipline

Fire discipline implies firstly, the restraints or self-discipline to open fire at the correct time and place and secondly implicit obedience of fire control for instance, in defence, the enemy will often try to make the defender discloses his position by sending out patrols to draw his fire, it is important that the defenders should not open fire on such patrols unless they are certain of killing the whole patrol. Good fire discipline is particularly important to prevent indiscriminate fire @ patrols or worse still, at imaginary patrols, noise or lights.
          This phenomenon of fire discipline can be applied as a theory in our lives. We live in a world where everybody is a soldier fighting his owner. We hustle and bustle every day, and some pretty do it out of control! Man you’ve got to stop simply because you need to get to the top of your career, business, and competition doesn’t mean you need to fire at all times you need fire discipline. Yes! Never give up but sometimes you should know when to quit or re-strategize.
 The same to have to go with emotions, every day we meet different kind of people, there are some that exist to just annoy the heck out of you. Just like I said earlier in defence the enemy will say mad things about you, provoke you, step on your nerves all this guys are patrols sent out to draw out the best in you and lose your formation, the best thing to do is to hold your fire. Never react to these provocations. After all when you eat it’s not all that go down your guts that your body need it will have to ignore some of the food to pass them straight down to the asshole.
          The same thing goes here, when you are fully motivated beyond measure and you begin to work hard relentlessly, all night you keep reading all morning you listen to your carrier seminars on your phone, all day you work in office, all day you sit at the laptop all day you are always on the social media. Man I have got to tell you that you are just pulling the trigger and you simply have no fire discipline. You will probably run out of ammo, or weapon get jammed or you are have spilled out your best, Mr reader you should know when to work and when to rest, apply simply the fire discipline to your own life and get the real concept of true battles.
          Forget about the video games and ignore those crazy movies where by you see that the action is fully bombarded with too much pulling of trigger, sometimes at battlefield there are some moment that everything is bored for the guys and they want some fun but can’t shoot anything. You can also read our post of WATCHING TOO MUCH OF ACTION MOVIES CAN GET YOU KILLED: WAYS MOVIES POTRAY FIRE FIGHT WRONG.


Ask the vets or if you are one I know you understand what am talking about.
          In Martial arts you can do 6 weeks’ intense damn workout but the smart money says you should look for rest if not you will wear out your muscles and you will produce fatigue result even the shaolin monks that spent years doing training they also spent years on resting and meditation, athletes also do the same, military men do the same, don’t over work and sometimes know when to work.
          However, nothing good comes without a disadvantage, if you can remember the 1998 Beirut barracks bombing became successful for the Islamic sects then because the soldiers present on guard are under the code of fire discipline which caused a catastrophic end simply because the soldiers could not fire at the incoming suicide bombers vehicles –their weapons were locked. Well they were simply acting on orders. Fire discipline as a theory is just like a pill; don’t use paracetamol when an illness requires chemiron. Know when to apply the principle of fire discipline in your life.
          I hope you enjoy today words on marble that I draw from military principle, stay updated for more. I remain your top military niche blogger- Afolabi Micheal.
