Principle #3

Principle #3 of John Kary's "6 Principles of Combat" is a biggie-

"Attack with RUTHLESSNESS and AGGRESSION"

What does this mean for us as practitioners of simple, effective and efficient self defense?

Simply this, that if you are forced to protect yourself or your loved ones, show the attacker ABSOLUTELY NO MERCY.

You can learn to do this in a very short period of time by following the instructions in the White Collar Warrior Self Protection Skills Home Study Course at www.whitecollarwarrior.com/Products.html
In the film Any Given Sunday, Al Pacino's character delivers a great motivational speech to his football team prior to their playoff game. In it he states, "Life's a game of inches...In any fight it's the guy who's willing to die who's gonna get that inch...On this team, we fight for that inch, we claw with our fingernails for that inch..."
That is a great way of describing how one should approach a combat encounter. In line with Principle #1, Develop an Offensive Mindset, your attacks cannot be halfhearted. There is something empowering about committing full-on to a course of action. Napoleon once said, "I see before me only the objective; the obstacle must give way."
And so it is with self defense, TRUE self defense.

If someone has made up his mind that he is going to rip your eyes out NO MATTER WHAT, then there is a high chance he will succeed. Why? Becuase he is hell-bent on accomplishing his objective.

If someone attacks you and your response is not one of unbridled aggression and ruthless commitment to doing them as much dmaage as you can, your odds of surviving an encounter just went down the can.

Think about it: if someone grabs you, and you do some half assed attack, you will piss them off. You will make it worse. And most important, you will effectively have demoralized yourself from the very beginning. Once your confidence is gone, you're through.

BUT...

If someone attacks you and you explode in a frenzy of indignation, clawing their face, grabbing their balls, striking at their throat, with all the intensity you possess, your odds of survival just went up astronomically.

remember, if you can remove yourself from a situation without resorting to violence, that's ideal...BUT
if you have no choice, attack that scumbag like your life depended on it, because in reality, it sure as hell does!


Gotta jet-be back soon
