When you’re talking about readiness
what exactly do you mean?
That you ought to be
informed?
That you ought to be
forewarned ?
because if that’s so
then you are in another phase
which is simply called
anticipation.
Therefore don’t overestimate
your capabilities
and learn to fight
when there’s
a real need
and not merely
by ripping your clothes off
otherwise you are not
a fighter.
