Catapult Your Ability To Protect Yourself To A New Level With These Inside Secrets

There are a number of misconceptions regarding self defense and the mindset required to be effective at it. On occasion the mere mention of the fact that you are a practicing martial artist was enough to strike fear in the minds of would be attackers.

This may have been correct at one point in history but barely holds water today. The mindset of true martial arts has changed. It has become more of an entertainment or sport but the objective of every martial art at its root is to deal with your opponent (or opponents) as quickly and efficiently as possible and survive the altercation intact without over exerting yourself.

The method of attack was geared towards using any and all means to overcome your opponent. This meant no holds barred and most certainly no set of rules or conduct. Now, of course this is not to be confused with the code of conduct to be followed while training in these arts. One can only conclude that through time, legends and storytelling that these mindsets have been blended and watered down corrupting these arts and its true representation.

Contrary to popular practice it becomes much more advantageous to show your opponent rather than tell you opponent what you’re capable of holding it back in surprise only for them to discover the grave mistake they have made. This enables us to capitalize on our opponent’s assumption that we are unable or unwilling to defend ourselves effectively.

Your method of attack should be designed as such to be as efficient and as violent as necessary as to allow your opponent to reconsider their action. Attacking your opponent in this manner affects their mindset in a very advantageous way for you. In many cases you attacker is not psychologically prepared for the method, intensity or sheer violence of your actions. This can provide you with the necessary influence to end the altercation without further violence.

It can be further recommended that as a practitioner a certain lack of compassion will serve you most well under these specific circumstances. The art of the counter attack is dependent on the opponent’s initial attack. That being said if the opponent chooses not to attack there are no consequences.

Your opponent’s fate most assuredly rests in their own hands. They will choose the method of their own destruction. In other words, everything becomes your opponent’s responsibility in regards to their well being. If they do not attack, they do not get hurt. This enables you, the practitioner to feel no guilt about your actions as they are only in response to the choices of your assailant.

Every situation is different and circumstances vary but it is up to the practitioner to use only the precise power necessary to end the altercation.
