Once you are done watching the video below, click the ANSWER tab to see if you were right, and if you can prime your mind to see certain things better.
Answer
The number of times the ball is thrown between the White Team is 13…. But in this exam it does not matter… Did you see the moonwalking and dancing bear? If you did then that is incredible!
You are very situationally aware already! But there is always room for improvement, especially when it comes to our own personal safety.
If you did NOT, then it’s totally ok.
Watch the video again but this time look only for that item.
How obvious was it the second time around!?!?!
This is the importance of “Priming” the mind when it comes to personal safety and security. When we take courses that educate us properly on the ways that criminals and violent offenders behave (the equivalent to being told about the bear) then we are priming our minds subconsciously to see these behaviors and situations developing before they become an issue.
IT IS THE SINGLE GREATEST THING YOU CAN DO TO KEEP YOURSELF SAFE!
Great job!
Identify
It is imperative that you know how to recognize Potentially Harmful Behaviors (PHB) within your vicinity.
Obvious, Anomalous, and Nefarious behaviors are the 3 main categories we break this down into.
An example of Anomalous behavior.
<----------- Which one looks different from the others?
Neutralize or Navigate
Our focus is backed by our energies, and the higher the energy in an exchange then the greater the finesse needed to de-escalate.
Neutralizing or Navigating through unwanted energetic exchanges is best done subconsciously with our body language.
What stances, tones, or techniques have you used before that were successful, or even unsuccessful?
Make It Be Known
There are more than just one way to let somebody, and those around us, know that our desire to engage is over with and that we'd like to move on.
Furthermore, are you aware of all the ways you can reach a 911 operator, give them your location, and not ever eve have to pull out your phone when worried it will cause someone to attack you?
How can we determine the "threshold" of when someone is acting out of line, without putting ourselves at risk?
Egress or Escape
Egress requires either Extrinsic or Intrinsic execution, but what's the difference between them and how do we know when to initiate them safely?
Escaping requires forced disengagement, knowing how to use your tools, and when to strike.
How have you disconnected from unwanted engagements in the past?
Was it successful, or did it result in an escalation of agitation?
