Ideas, Mistakes & National Syndication

Image
I had the chance to be on Nationally Syndicated Frontlines of Freedom Military Talk Radio Show w/Skip Coryell. We spoke on church security, Pre-Conflict Indicators and the Interviewing process.

If you didn't get the chance to catch me on the radio when it aired, you can listen to it here:

(My segment begins at the 11:15 min. mark.)

We talked about Being a PeaceWalker and Building a Protector Lifestyle. More specifically we discusses:
1) Mindset & Ethic 2) Church Security 3) Profiling Behavioral Red Flags 4) Interviewing procedures & tips

In business you have to risk resources like time, money and effort to acquire something in order to possibly gain financially.

Cryptic vs. Clarity

Image
When it comes to training to protect, less cryptic and more clarity is not only a plus it's essential! That's why I like Krav Maga & the PeaceWalker Approach to Conflict.
Now I know some of you who train w/me are saying...
"Sometimes you're cryptic as f*ck Craig."
...and you would be right! But that's because when it comes to APPLICATION of those basic principles things get real!
...And SIMPLE doesn't mean EASY!
Also...
It depends on what course/class you come to and what questions you ask. If you take one of our Basic Defensive Tactics or PeaceWalker Conflict Management Courses it is a 1-2-3 approach.
The basic fundamentals are not that cryptic they are elegant! It's in their application where things get a bit confusing for the novice. The concepts can be so simple that people think they are easy and believe they 'got it'. Then when they try applying that Basic Principle and fail. After that people typically want the next thing to solve …
