Logan Alexander Series by TL Williams is a series of stories revolving around soldiers who faced career-ending severe injuries in their lives. A soldier takes the injury seriously since he considers it an attack on the development of his career or his daily life. Injury is defined as a condition that keeps the soldier away from performing at wars for a day after the incident. It needs medical attention or care other than the simple preventive steps such as icing or strapping. According to the injured soldier, it may develop feelings of waste of time spent in training and generate various more or less harmful reactions, such as frustration, isolation, and fear of not coming back to a level to end a career. An injury is almost unavoidable in the life of a soldier, and the probability of injury for a soldier is relatively high. It is necessary to know how to anticipate and overcome it.
Causes of injury related to lack of concentration or attention
A soldier not being attentive to what he is doing induces a lack of concentration. This loss of attention can be fatal and cause injury either in training or in competition. Many accidents in alpine skiing are mainly caused by inattention, errors in the race, fatigue, poor visibility, and poor racing conditions. However, a technical problem is rarely mentioned as a cause of the injury. Logan Alexander Series brings stories regarding lack of attention resulting in injury. When soldiers have too much or too little activation, focus, and alertness, they will be more prone to damage because they will be more likely to make mistakes. There would be an optimal zone for performance located at an average activation level. The risk of injury would be less because the psychological parameters (concentration, alertness, perception) would be balanced. Injuries would be more frequent at each end when the soldier continues to serve at the field. Such occasions are listed in Logan Alexander Series with an impressive explanation of the scenario and war zone.
Causes of injury related to the lack of confidence, self-image, and ability to cope
Lack of self-confidence can hamper the soldier's focus, which would bring us back to the plot developed in Logan Alexander Series. Having a good self-image, as well as good self-confidence, are tangible assets for a soldier. Otherwise, it could create distractions in the soldier's mind. These will then be harmful and likely lead to mental hesitation and an insufficient capacity to cope. It can affect the ability to concentrate, stay positive, and control one's level of mentality. It will increase the risk of injury. Soldiers with a low coping capacity and low social support at the same time have a high probability of being injured. Unfortunately, a lack of self-confidence affects a lot of soldiers.
The moment of injury becomes near when the soldier finds himself in the center of unreasonable suffering and a feeling of unease. Logan Alexander Series revolves around the feelings of a soldier at that time. A soldier in depression feels depressed, downcast, and withdrawn. It causes the soldier to lose moral energy making him vulnerable to injury. Depression decreases the performance of a soldier and makes the soldier more prone to failure because he withdraws. He experiences deficiencies in concentration and loses all motivation due to carer ending injury.
