Keeping It Simple

I want my skillsets to work when I am just about to pass out from lack of oxygen….when I can’t make a crucial diagnostic evaluation to save my life…when I am so gassed out, smoked, and beat up that I could not even tell you my name…when my hands are shaking and I am about to crap myself from fear, exhaustion, effort, or a combination of all of the above.

I want robustness
I want stress-proofness
I want commonality across weapon systems as much as possible
I want few choices and a high probablity of success

I want minimal (did I say MINIMAL) techniques that I can ingrain deeply (did I say DEEPLY) through countless repetitions so that I can execute them without thought in the situations I described above….because I have experienced those times and know that I want to be able to function and succeed where others fail.
