Imagine you're sleeping, when suddenly you hear the sounds of someone rummaging through your house, walking up the stairs, etc.
You reach over to the nightstand, grab your keys and hit the PANIC button. Suddenly the intruder, not wanting to draw attention, removes himself quickly as you phone the police.
A bit too ideal a situation, but a good example nonetheless.
Always sleep with your keys next to your bed. You can hit the PANIC button if you need to, you can make a quick escape if you need to, and this way, you know you didn't leave them in the door (who among us hasn't done that, only to wake up the next morning and say, "oh, shit...they were in there ALL night?"
One other reason I like is that if you need to protect yourself should that occur, in addition to the techniques taught in the White Collar Warrior Self Protection Skills Home Study Course, the keyring can be looped around the index or middle finger, and swung like a whip towards an assailant's eyes, face, groin or anywhere else. Think of it like a mini-mace from the medieval days.
Just a little extra thought to make you more prepared...
Take care,
Bobby

This article is worth checking out and re-reading...twice
I just came across this online-this type of stuff scares the shit out of me and makes me want to scream out my window for everyone to learn the stuff we're showing in our White Collar Warrior Self Protection Skills Home Study Course.

Bodies With Hearts Cut Out Found in Mexican Cave (AOL News)
(June 7) -- Even in the midst of a drug war that has left thousands dead, this was a particularly gruesome discovery: six bodies in a cave, three of them with their hearts apparently cut out.
That is what police in Mexico found Sunday, in a natural cave just outside the resort town of Cancun.
Francisco Alor, the attorney general in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, said the victims -- two women and four men -- had been tortured. In a statement to The Associated Press, Alor's office said their "chests were opened to remove the hearts."
In the U.S., Cancun is probably best known as a vacation spot, but recently it has become yet another backdrop for Mexico's increasingly violent battle against the drug cartels.
Makes you re-think the vacation this summer...
The city is home to high-profile murders, drug-related violence and human smuggling. And it is becoming known as a hotbed of corruption as well. In May, Cancun gubernatorial candidate Gregorio Sanchez was arrested for allegedly having ties to drug cartels. He claims he is innocent.
The bodies found in the cave have not been identified, and police did not confirm that they were victims of the drug war. But the Mexican newspaper El Pais reports that "Zs" were carved into the bodies, a widely known symbol of the Zetas, one of Mexico's most powerful cartels.
"Six deaths is not news in Mexico," El Pais lamented.
That's not what I want to hear before I blow a shit-ton of cash on a trip...sorry but I can make a mojito anywhere, pal.
Cesar Munoz, an editor at Novedades, a newspaper in Cancun, said the resort town is no longer immune from the violence.
"The reality is that Cancun, like the rest of Mexico, is at war," he told the Los Angeles Times last year. "It's at war with the drug cartels."
Mexico's war on drugs is a national one. Two people were killed Sunday in Coyuca de Catalan when armed men opened fire at a "quinceanera," or "sweet 15," celebration.
How nice...
Once again, your safety is your responsibility, especailly when travelling abroad.
be safe,

he can't see the forest from the trees...
First off, sorry for the delay in posting-I've been a bit busy and have been focusing on cleaning up my training a bit-clarifying certain points, attending to details and such, so I hope that explains my absence...
Now, on to today's thought, the phrase, "he can't see the forest for the trees"
That phrase is used when someone focuses too much on specifics and misses the big picture.
In self defense, especially, do not focus on the details, i.e., what to do if you're grabbed HERE or THERE, if someone does THIS, then I'll do THAT, and so on...
Keep your eyes on the big picture, and that is you are being attacked!
Respond with simple, effective and practical motions designed to target their vital areas...EYES, THROAT, BALLS and SHINS.
That's what the White Collar Warrior Self Protection Skills Home Study Course is all about.
Check it out!
Talk to you soon,
Bobby
