I'm getting new killer skills...

...that I hope will better Mankind, but I'm really hoping I will be changed for the better!
 
I am working on something that is so different from what I've ever done before. Stretching myself. Learning new things. Exploring what I'm capable of handling.
 
To acquire these new techniques I have to play games with myself. I imagine each new skill set will be used to accomplish a secret mission. Each thing is like a different team member of an elite squad sent to assassinate a Nazi Leader and must band together and combine their abilities to succeed in the task.
 
Say for instance, I need to remember a set of passwords, codes or acronyms, well I imagine the team member is a Code Breaker deciphering enemy messages.
 
Sometimes these games help overcome the stress I might otherwise feel climbing a learning curve. Climbing that curve can be for me like David Niven climbing that clift wall in the rain in "Guns of Navarone."
 
These games seem to help me remember.
