Do People Feel Safer When You're There?





This might sound like a weird question... but it is an important one!

Think about it...

Do they?

If they do Why? Or if they don't, than Why Not? I don't mean just physically safer. I'm talking emotionally safer too. Like if they needed you, you'd have their back in whatever capacity.

What do you think is necessary to have someone FEEL Safer in your presence? 

Is it how you look? What you say (or don't say)? What you do (or don't)? How you hold yourself?


A Challenge...


Here's a challenge for you...

Try observing yourself today and see if you can pick up on things that you can do to help communicate (without directly saying it) to people around you that you have their back if they need it.

It could be something as subtle as you being more alert, straightening your posture and paying attention.

It could be something like you looking approachable enough to talk to.

It could be about you listening more attentively.

It could be you stepping in and asserting yourself even when you weren't asked.

It could be not butting in when you could!

It could be seeing things that are typically ignored or ignoring things that are seen!

It could be helping someone save face, or calling someone out who is out of line.

Are people from Crete Creteans??

Here I am in Crete. It is a pretty cool island. It is a bit more difficult getting around, but far from impossible. Most people speak at least a little english and I have gotten very good at asking (in Greek) if they speak english. I walked around about 15 miles today. Into town, around town, to all (and I do mean all) of their museums, archelogical sights, some cafe's and town squares. I really didn't even get lost today. Wow, I must be making some progress. I met a couple English people (yes, people from England silly) we hung out until about 1am or so and talked about politics, troubled youth, the difference between the FBI, CIA, and Secret Service (don't ask, if I told you I'd have to kill you:), body guards, ccw laws etc. It was kinda of funny, most of the museums that I went to today were under construction and had only one exhibit open. Geeze, you'd think that they would have at least discounted their entry price, but noooooooo! Oh well. I at least had a real

Attracting An Assault?!

Image
  I thought I'd share something interesting about how criminals, predator's, thugs and bullies profile their victims.  Remember I told you the other day, that I was listening to one of Jocko Willink's podcasts?  He was talking about this subject and refenced some research old and newer.  ~ The 1982 study  Attracting Assault: Victims' Nonverbal Cues  by Grayson / Stein ~Marked by Mayhem -  Psychology Today by Hustmyre & Dixit, 1/1/09 Well, I revisited that research and something interesting stuck out like a fart in study hall. Something we talk about all the time at the academy and when I teach seminars and workshops.  Organization. As in being in Kamae. What?! You know being wholistically organized. Here's what Grayson and Stein had to say (paraphrased): The prime difference between perceived victim and non-victim groups revolves around "wholeness" or consistency of movement. Non-victims have an organized quality about their movements. They function co

What's Your Rosebud?

Image
  One of my favorite classic movies is: "Citizen Kane" It starred Orson Welles. [NOTE: spoiler ahead - if you haven't seen it] And, was about the life and legacy of a powerful newspaper publisher, based partly on the late William Randolph Hearst. The movie starts with Charles Foster Kane dying, with his last word being "Rosebud" — and the entire movie is this sort of question of what "Rosebud" is. Turns out it was simply the trade name of a cheap little sled on which Kane was playing on the day he was taken away from his home and his mother as a child. Welles revealed in an interview: "In his subconscious it represented the simplicity, the comfort, above all the lack of responsibility in his home, and also it stood for his mother's love which Kane never lost." The point? We All Have Our Rosebud That thing, moment, or whatever it is that anchors, drives, guides, or inspires you.  For example, the late Johnny Carson and the book of magic tr
