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,
~Craig

An Uncomfortable Situation

Image
  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 ...

What'd You Say?!

  You ever have a conversation with someone who really lifted your spirits? How about having a conversation with someone who’s a real downer?! We spend a lot of time talking to people. Matter of fact, talking is one of the most under rated and under trained aspects of protecting yourself. It’s much better if you can talk your way out of a bad situation, rather than having to resort to some form of physicality. This is why we spend so much time on sharing effective communication frameworks in the PeaceWalker course. But All of that Aside… When we think about communicating, we often just think about talking to other people. We forget how we talk to ourselves! You may have heard it called, “Self talk.” All day long we talk to ourselves. We carry on an inner dialogue in our heads that only we can hear. Unfortunately, this means it's very easy to be hard on ourselves. There's something about privacy which makes it easy to say the things you would never say out loud to another living...

Cracks in Your Foundation?!

Image
  Last night we had one of our weekly coaching calls for the PeaceWalker Evolution Course. What a great call! Rob and Jenn, a couple of the Level II - Momentum folks (people who graduated from Evolution last year and came back for the second Level.), were tasked to run the meeting as part of their training. I must say, they did a stand up job! The topic of discussion was building an Unshakable Foundation. WTH is that!? It’s basically the way you live. Your habits. What you do in your day to day life. How do you train your… Body  - Your physical health Mind  - What you’re filling your head with Mouth  - How you’re communicating Heart  - How you foster your relationships Why?! Without a solid foundation it’s difficult to remain balanced. When you are not balanced, it more difficult to stay calm, cool, and collected, (especially) under pressure. As I often say,  “You can’t hide crazy.” (It eventually comes out!) Regardless… You don’t have to be in the PeaceWal...
