A lot of people today more than yesterday are feeling helpless, vulnerable, and scared in public. We are inundated daily with stories like the tragedy that played out two days ago in Virginia, where two unarmed and vulnerable people were gunned down in a horrific massacre by a psychotic murderer.
Unfortunately, we live in a society where the person you meet on a random encounter in the street might be fresh off of a 12 hour binge of play acting violence in a video game. The lines have blurred for some in-between the demented desensitization that they have muddied their mind with virtually and the real world where shooting someone doesn't get you extra points.
I wrote a series of blog posts in 2013 on the OODA Loop. I am going to unpack them here for you, averaging a post per day over the next several days, to equip you to practice situational awareness intentionally until it becomes an intuitive habit. I will post the first few introductory background blog posts today. I don't blog regularly, so I don't have a blog you can "follow" but I will bring all of that previously written content here. It is important to point out that I didn't create the OODA Loop, I am just a student of it like you might become. It might save your life some day, and the lives of those around you in any given set of circumstances.
Just like muscle memory, you can train your mind to subconsciously observe and orient to your surroundings.
Most of this same content I shared during a special recording of the Mind Your Business Podcast. If you learn better by listening than reading, you can listen to the Podcast here:
