AWARE is so important in Self-Defense. AWARENESS of surroundings, circumstances, friends and even some relatives can save your life.
Just the act of being AWARE is arguably one of the top items on any good self-defense top 10 list. Those that are AWARE survive because they see, hear, smell, touch and sense things that others do not.
In a world of “screen time” we see potential victims everywhere, faces in phones, giggling about the newest YouTube fail video, social media trend, TicToc, or just playing games. Whether running into poles, walking into traffic or getting stalked, these would-be targets are always in the world of UN-AWARE.
In Life Defense we see it too. The media has 24/7/365 1/4 day access to our attention, if we let it, and therefore has the largest sway on our purchases, attention, and opinions. In so many ways, media keeps us so UN-AWARE that we are UN-AWARE that we are UN-AWARE.
In previous centuries being UN-AWARE would get us eaten by a tiger, killed by ambushing marauders, or captured and sold into slavery. It is time we open our eyes, ears, and senses wider. There are tigers all around us and we just don’t know it.
The very essence of the two word warning is “BE AWARE” and its counter part of course is BEWARE. So…
Beware AND Be AWARE!
