« Sorry for my French » is an expression who means that I speak in a very direct way.
So yes, because I am French, I might speak to you in a very straight way.
I hope it won’t shock you…
Tip number 7 : try to be always calm
It is killing me to say that being zen or using some yoga technics can helps… But yes, use any ways you want to be the more calm possible.
The stress is like an alarm.
Once you get it, put it off. It’s fine, you had the message. No need to repeat it again and again…
Why so many people smoke or drink ? Because they don’t succeed to deal with their stress.
I have anxiety too. But the positive visualisation and the Faith helped me a lot.
Tip number 6 : use the tools you have
Carrying an atomic bomb in the street is not that legal in many countries. So in case of an agression against 1 or many people : what to do ?
Use the tools you have. A pen, a book, a bag, a chair, a stick etc… Anything.
Yell if needed. Even if you use some non-nobles words.
Of course you can have a bag full of self-defence devices. But if you need to run, you might need few things in your bag, to run faster.
Tip number 5 : know what is around you
Your eyes cannot look around like a crazy animal. But your ears can.
So, listen to the maximum.
What your eyes cannot see, your ears can.
So yes, indeed, I do not recommend the use of some earplugs for listening some music while you walk in the street. It is dangerous. Same in your car, the listening of some music, can make you not listening some crucial elements.
Tip number 4 : dress to feel strong
Dress for work or dress for sport. But dress in a way that makes you feel strong.
Use few accessories but good ones.
Tip number 3 : listen to your instinct
Your intuition will tell you if an area is calm, uncertain or toxic.
Same with the people.
Even if it take you some time to uncover the mask of some.
You are a sharp predator in the jungle of the life.
In a battle situation : do not make plans. Listen the calm voice inside of you.
Tip number 2 : practice some sport
Sport is one of the most important thing in life. It is good for your mind and your body.
If you want to be efficient in a dangerous situation : your mind and your body need to be sharp.
Tip number 1 : have a spiritual shield & sword
Even if you have some big axes, you cannot wear them all the time. You need to be protected by something positive, powerful and invisible.
I trust Our-Lady Saint-Mary because she helped me. But if you trust some character from a comics or even some aliens : I don’t mind.
My message is simple : have faith in something that helps you.
AND in return, pray for this positive spirit, in order to show how grateful you are.
