THE FIRST
BATTLE IS

AGAINST

INCORRECT

ASSUMPTIONS.

BY MICHAEL D’ANGONA

eing able to defend
yourself against an
unprovoked attack
is, without a doubt, a
B great skill for a person
to acquire and use when needed
throughout their everyday life.
However, for the person just beginning
their journey to achieve this goal,
the path to success is often cluttered
with misinformation, widely believed
misconceptions and false promises that,
unfortunately, lead many to abandon
their pursuit altogether. This abrupt
ending can have devastating results in
the future if they become the target of an
aggressive and violent confrontation.
The key to not letting this happen to
you lies in both doing your homework—by
sifting through the layers of information
to find the reality behind the fallacies—
and, of course, physically perfecting your
skills. The combination of a strong-willed
and educated mind and enhanced
physical ability will be your answer to
those who think you are their victim—one
who can be easily bullied and controlled.
They will clearly be severely mistaken and,
unfortunately for them, they will learn
that the hard way!
