Death to my enemies
Gear One and Two
Third Gear Desire - the will to crush the opposition.
Most people including my self begin to think the enemy is out there. Really your mind and your limiting thoughts are your greatest challenge.
Two Wolves
One winter’s evening gathered round a blazing camp fire, an old Sioux Indian chief told his grandson about the inner struggle that goes on inside people.

“The other one,” he continued, poking the fire with a stick so that the fire crackled, sending the flames clawing at the night sky, “is good, full of joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith”.
