Who's the Captain of Your Ship!?




 I was going to title this email 'Make Life Your B*tch' But I decided for the more eloquent title! 


...You're welcome! =)


As a PeaceWalker...

I am the master of my life.
.
I have control over the outcomes in my life. I am the captain of my ship. I limit the power of others to determine the course of my life.
.
Respect is something that can only be given, never demanded.
.
I may not always have the ability to control what happens, but...
.
I choose my thoughts. I have the choice to select thoughts that serve me or sabotage me. I choose thoughts that propel me into the future with certainty and confidence. By controlling my thoughts, I have control over my actions and results.
.
I choose what I focus on. I choose to focus on those things that help me. I choose to focus on the people that bring me happiness and fulfillment.
.
My focus determines what I accomplish and what is left undone. I choose the objects of my focus carefully and intelligently.

I choose my friends and the other members of my social circle. I only allow people into my life that are positive and healthy. I may sometimes have to deal with a disagreeable person, but I limit their impact on my life. 
.
I exercise the option of adding and removing people from my life.
.
I choose my career. There are many ways I could earn money, but I choose a way that I enjoy. What I do brings me self-respect.
.
Today, I am reminding myself of the power I possess to create the life I want. I am taking responsibility for my past, present, and future. 
.
I am the master of my life... The Captain of My Ship!

Self-Reflection Questions:
.
1. When have I failed to take control of my circumstances?
2. What can I do to exercise more responsibility over my life?
3. What do I gain by blaming others for the deficits in my life?


More Control?!

More control over Life really means having more control over yourself... And that means you have to develop the correct mindset. 
.
Your ability to be resilient. To improvise, adapt & overcome the conflicts in Life are largely dependent on your ability to protect yourself. 
.
To manage conflict! 
.
Remember, the real art to learning how to defend yourself is more than just learning how to punch and kick. It's learning how to clarify ethics and objectives. It's about understanding strategy and tactics. Influence and control. And yes, learning some effective techniques too!
.
So, if you're looking to learn the secret of what to do in the face of conflict...
.
How to protect yourself and loved ones from the threat of violence, then...
.
Don't miss your chance!
.
Develop a Protector's Lifestyle.
.
It's all in my PeaceWalker Private Membership.
.
You'll get all the tools you need to deal with verbal, physical and social violence. Hone your mindset to accomplish anything Life throws at you. The Ability to Be Your Own Captain. 
.
The first step is my Six Day Defense Course!
.
Not only will you get access to the powerful, yet deceptively simple course that'll cost you nothing except 10 minutes per day over six days. Then you will also get [almost] daily tips tricks and tactics on living a protectors life!

.
Ok, I'm out!
.
Have a good one, lead from the front and...
.
.
Keep going,

An Uncomfortable Situation

  Funny pic (and movie) about a not so funny situation… In training as in Life, it’s better to treat people with dignity and respect. However… What does that look like in the moment? Being that I’m teaching a Women’s Assault Prevention and Response Workshop this weekend - it’s probably a good time to talk about… Uncomfortable Situations Let’s talk about training at the academy for a minute… We run open co-ed classes at the local academy. What does that mean? Men and women train together, but we don’t stop there. People of different skill levels, backgrounds, ethnicities, sexual orientations, careers, religious beliefs, political affiliations, ages, injuries, pre-existing conditions, life experience, training expectations etc. etc. train together! We ALL work together! Overall, I think it’s better this way. Of course sometimes there’s static, you know, conflicts, and misunderstanding. When something happens, most of the time it’s just that, a misunderstanding… Sometimes people simply do

The Shot Heard Around the World

Even though many could see where all of this division and hatred in our country was leading to, when we witness the actual violence, realty once again floods in and has a way of shattering the comfort of our complacency, if only until the next headline. Some may find all of this shocking, others may see it simply validating their own fears. Regardless, of your political views, we have to take into account what this level of violence can do not only to the former President and his family, but what does to the state of our entire Nation. Yesterday as news broke of former President Donald Trump being shot, I can’t say that I was entirely surprised. Saddened, but not surprised. Regardless of your political stance, this act of violence is a dark reminder of the dangerous consequences of a society steeped in hate and division. Our collective heartbreak should not be about politics, but about the division and hatred that fuels this erosion of our humanity. We live in a time where traditional

Cutting Through the Static

  Me and the crew at Venue 3 Two after a PeaceWalker Conflict Communication Workshop Remember in the old days when you used to listen to the radio on a road trip? No, not digital or streaming. I’m talking about old school FM radio. When you’re putting some miles on and crossing state lines. The radio stations you listen to don’t broadcast far enough for your entire trip, so you have to channel surf to find new channels as you move on down the road. You continue to push the search button until you hear a song in the genre that you want so you can lock in a desirable station for a spell. Sometimes you’re listening to a song you really like but the station is fading… The static starts feint, almost imperceptible, than grows in intensity to the degree that you can no longer ignore it. If you really like the song, you try to hang on as long as you can, listening to the tune through the white noise and times it cuts out completely, hoping to hear as much of the song as you can before the sta
