The quiet shift

[ArchEnemy]

There was no dramatic incident and no moment of crisis. One morning I put the gun on, didn't give it a second thought and went about my day. I came home and that was it. The shift from thinking about carrying to just carrying is quiet and unremarkable. And that's exactly how it should feel.

Carrying your firearm should be as natural as waking up from sleeping.

Should be a “If I have clothes on…there is a firearm on me.” kind of thing.

Yeah, that’s a good way to describe it. The less attention you have to give it, the more natural it becomes as part of your daily routine, which is probably the whole point.

That’s exactly how it should be. When carrying becomes second nature, it stops feeling like a decision and just becomes part of your routine..

That unremarkable morning is exactly the benchmark. Carry becoming background noise instead of a conscious decision means the training and mindset finally settled where they were supposed to be.
