Blog Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)

Easy, simple and to the point, i.e., one must give themselves permission to disregard socially driven obstacles like the application of violence to stop violence. It you are attacked your socially driven mode may be to say, “This is not happening to me, I can’t hurt another human being!” To survive and defend you have to give yourself permission to do the things necessary to stop the damage and get to safety. 

You also have to give yourself permission to actually “go.” Go meaning to apply self-defense levels of force in a physically violent situation. We all hope that we will have the ability to avoid such violent conflicts but in the rare event one raises up its ugly head looking to apply violence directly on your head you must have already given yourself permission to act accordingly with the appropriate levels of force to remain within the self-defense square. 

To get here you are going to have to admit and accept that conflict and violence are an integral part of the human condition and allow that ignorance, ignoring or not learning about this complex and huge topic will be detrimental to your survival. You have to give yourself permission to accept things as reality then proceed to learn, practice and apply those things necessary for survival defense (self-defense).
