Proof that you are truly brave. My three assaults by Mexicans caused me to get pumped up, wired and ready for action. Sadly, I learned from the assaults that I am completely lacking in self-defense tools. Now I am taking classes. Remember: 90% of crime involves perpetrators needing money for drugs.
I gotta tell ya, I always assumed I was a big p***y. Kinda surprised I’m not.
I would not term my condition ‘brave’, but more ‘without fear’.
I did notice a peripheral vision decrease, common in these situations. You tend to focus on the immediate threat. I was almost tempted to jump the guy and get a free gun outta the deal, he was so careless in his handling.
That’s really not bravery, more of an absence of fear.
This was so cool. I learned a lot about myself tonight. There ain’t no situation of danger I won’t be able to handle. I’m gonna be JUST FINE. :)
Oh, and to see if I can impart some help to ya: I have a total lack of concern if I live or I die. I lost that the hard way, in my former lifestyle of addiction to hard drugs. That, combined with my lack of a wife or children — I figure I got zero to lose.
Once you embrace there is nothing that can be taken from you, you stop caring about living or dying. You lose all your fear. You just live and do the best you can.
And if someone flashes a gun, you really aren’t phased by it.
“That the best you got?” lol
If you don’t mind me asking, what type of class and what’s you general build? Some classes are better for different body types and some don’t really teach real world techniques.
