When faced with attack, act immediately and escape. Do not let anything get in your way of survival. Never, ever give up!
The essential components of the survival mindset are:
Toughness
Immediate Response
Focus
Toughness
Mental and physical toughness means being absolutely ruthless in your defence. You act without compassion, pity, or mercy against an attacker who wants to violate you.
Immediate Response
Respond immediately with the appropriate level of force. Stop the attack and escape. A person who survives does not wait as the advantage is the surprise of instant and direct offense.
Most criminals expect their victims to be in fear and comply. Do the opposite and resist quickly and forcefully.
Focus
Stay focused and single-minded on your goal of survival. Be persistent and continue to respond if first response is not effective. Commit to your goal of survival and let nothing in your way.
The survival mindset, or mental development, must progress with physical training. Without some balance, you either are overly confident and cannot execute a physical response, or are extremely skilled but mentally unable to exercise your techniques.
