Annotations and Commentary:

I have no discipline. I make myself have discipline.

Truly having no discipline means that you would be
incapable of making yourself do anything. What kind of
warrior is it that has no discipline? This statement has no
semantic content.

I have no knowledge. I make myself know more.

Obviously you have knowledge. You have no wisdom.
Knowledge is valuable and can be traded for food and 
clothing. Wisdom is priceless, yet can't be given 
away.

I have no skills. I make my skills grow.

In this rapidly changing world, all of our skills
become obsolete almost daily. We build on what we know, 
learning or dying as we each see fit.

I have no understanding. I make myself comprehend.

. . .and give yourself a stroke trying? Nah, I'd 
rather rely on those who have gone before. that's not lazy, 
that's smart. Your philosophy would have us all starting by 
coding keyboard interrupts. Poeple like me have already 
laid the foundation, so people like you can build on 
it.

I have no strength. I make myself strong.

We all have strength. We all have weakness. Our 
interactions with others make us strong, wallowing in our 
own narcissistic selfdom makes us weak.

I have no power. I make myself powerful.

Locate the button (usually on the front of the box) 
labeled ON/OFF (or O/1). Push it. But seriously, if your 
desire is power, then it comes as the fruit of labor, 
always. Again, study the works of those who have gone 
before, and emulate the masters.

I have no future. I live for the moment. This is so blatantly obvious it need not be said. I have no past. I live each day like it is a new start. A good statement generally, but if you never learn from your mistakes, how do you grow? And so forth . . .

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
