Dear Young Master (and the adult/trusted adult supporting them)
In this game of life, you are not just a player; you are the main character of your own story. Do not let your opponent convince you that you are merely an NPC—one who is programmed to follow a script without purpose.
You are capable of so much more!
Stand Firm Against Manipulation!
There will be those who try to control the narrative, attempting to dictate your moves and decisions. They want you to jump to their script, to dance to their tune. But remember, you are not a pawn in anyone else's game. You possess the power to choose your path and write your own story.
Embrace Your Strength to Care Do not let anyone stop you from caring about yourself and others. Your ability to impact your life and the lives of those around you is a testament to your strength. Caring is not a weakness; it is a superpower that can change the world. Embrace it!
Resist the Pressure to Conform Your opponents may want you to fail, to fight against each other, and to sever the vital connections you have with your culture and community. They want you to become statistics—just another number lost in the crowd. Do not give in to this pressure.
Stand tall and proud, celebrating your unique identity and heritage.
Stay Connected to Your Roots Your culture is a source of strength and resilience. Stay connected to your roots, your history, and your community. These links provide you with a support system and wisdom that can guide you through life's challenges. Don’t stand on water, stand on solid rocks!
Rise Above the Noise In a world filled with distractions and negativity, remember to rise above the noise.
Focus on your goals, aspirations, and dreams. Use your energy to uplift yourself and others rather than engaging in conflict that pulls you away from your true purpose.
Choose Your Battles Wisely Not every challenge is worth your time and energy. Choose your battles wisely. Invest in causes and conflicts that align with your values and will help you grow.
Be a Force for Good Use your voice and actions to be a force for good in your community. Whether it’s advocating for change, supporting friends, or standing up against injustice, your impact can be profound.
You Are Not Alone Remember, you are not alone in this journey. MAG will always be here to support and guide you. Seek them out, build connections, and create a community of like-minded individuals who lift each other up.
Believe in Yourself Most importantly, believe in yourself. Trust your instincts and your ability to navigate this game. You are capable of achieving greatness, so hold onto that belief and let it propel you forward.
MAG FOREVER

What is A NPC Mindset?
In gaming, NPCs—or "non-playable characters"—are the background characters that follow a script. They move and talk based on whatever the game tells them to do. They don’t make their own choices, they don’t question things, and they definitely aren’t the heroes of the story. They’re just… there.
But here’s the thing: Some people go through life acting like NPCs without even realizing it! They fall into routines, follow the crowd, and rarely think for themselves. It’s like they’re living on autopilot instead of being the main character of their own story.
Here are some signs of an “NPC mindset” to look out for:
1. Going Along with Whatever – They agree with whatever’s popular, even if they haven’t thought it through themselves. It’s like they’d rather fit in than stand out.
2. Living on Repeat – They stick to the same routines and habits, even if they’re not happy with them. They’re not open to new experiences or stepping out of their comfort zone.
3. Using Clichés or Copying Others – When they talk, it sounds like they’re repeating lines they heard somewhere else. They’re not expressing their real thoughts or feelings.
4. Reacting Without Thinking – They respond to situations based on emotions alone, without considering why they feel that way or what’s actually best for them.
5. Following the Crowd – Instead of making their own decisions, they just do what everyone else is doing. It’s like they’re more worried about “fitting in” than being true to themselves.
6. Avoiding Real Reflection – They don’t ask themselves big questions like, “What do I actually want?” or “What matters to me?” They’re not interested in growing or changing.
7. Feeling Uncomfortable with Different Views – When they meet someone who thinks differently, they might get defensive or feel weird because it shakes up their “script.”
The Alternative? You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC. You’re not an NPC
You’re the main character of your story.
You have the power to think for yourself, question things, and make choices that align with who you truly are. Don’t just follow a script—write your own path and be the hero of your journey!
AM I ALREADY A NPC?
1. When was the last time I challenged myself to try something new, even if it felt a bit uncomfortable or risky?
2. What is something I’ve always wanted to do but haven’t tried yet because it feels intimidating or outside my usual routine?
3. Do I tend to avoid situations that push me beyond my comfort zone, or do I take them on as opportunities for growth?
4. How often do I choose experiences that are unfamiliar or challenging, instead of sticking to what’s easy or comfortable?
5. If I reflect on my choices over the past few months, have I made decisions that pushed me to grow, or have I mostly played it safe?
