Develop an Offensive Mindset

Let's break down the first of John Kary's 6 principles of combat, specifically as it applies to learning and applying simple, basic, effective self defense.

Develop an OFFENSIVE Mindset.

Simply put, this means that your mentailty, when faced with an attacker or someone wishing to do you harm, MUST be "I will hurt THEM" rather than "I will defend MYSELF"

By taking this stance, your attitude shifts from one of "Please don't hurt me" to 'How F***ing DARE YOU ATTACK ME?!?" In doing so, you rob your body of fear, and replace it with righteous indignation. Your tools will then be able to do damage, not so much due to technique (although knowledge of proper techniques, such as those found in the White Collar Warrior Self Protection Skills Home Study Course, is essential) but rather due to the mentality and feeling behind the technique. In this sense the old adage, "He can because he thinks he can" actually, is true.

How do you develop this mentality? Through scenario based training drills and employing gross motor movements against an uncooperative opponent in mock set-ups.
Wanna know how to do this? The best course I have seen out there for this is either Peyton Quinn's RMCAT, Bill Kipp's FAST defense or specifically for women, a rape prevention class called IMPACT. Check them out if you have the means. I also encourage you to check out the White Collar Warrior site at

For 7 bucks, the info you will get is priceless.

Buy it and make yourselves and your families safer.

Til next time,

Remember-no one has the right to attack you. No one. If they do, make them sorry. You have the power to do just that. Believe it.
