For many years in my martial arts academies, I taught the six ways of attack:

1. Hitting

2. Kicking

3. Trapping (being grabbed, joint locks, etc)

4. Grappling (fighting on the ground)

5. Weapons (stick, knife, gun, etc)

6. Mass Attack (two or more attackers)

However, those six ways are all about PHYSICAL attack.

Let me now add another vitally important way of attack:

7. Mental/Psychical Attack

In fact, it is even MORE important than a physical attack!

Here's why:

How often are any of us physically attacked?

How often do any of us really and truly face a violent physical attacker - a street thug, a crazed drug addict, a robber or a terrorist?

As much as we'd like to think otherwise, the truth is: almost never!

In all reality, few of us will ever actually face violence in our lives, and certainly not on a DAILY basis!

But guess what kind of attack, even more lethal and deadly, that we DO face, EVERY single day:

Mental and Psychic Attack!

Fact.

You WILL Be Attacked. Attacks on your mental, emotional and spiritual well-being are foisted upon you DAILY from multiple directions.

We hardly notice the "mental cancer" of psychic attack - attacks on our confidence and motivation, attacks on our mental and spiritual well-being - attacks on the very things which are fundamental to our health and success!

The results of these attacks manifest in numerous and multiple ways including dis-ease, poverty, sickness, lonliness, frustration and turmoil.

How about these other attacks on your mind and spirit: "money is evil," "you should feel guilty," "you are bad," "those______ people are bad," or "Everyone is out to get you" "God is out to get you" "only greedy people want to succeed" "the Lord told me______" "the government is out to get you"

Or how about these beliefs implanted in you by others, that set you up to fail: "you need money to get women" "women only want a man with money" or, "you just can't make it in this world"

Or how about this one "you just can't make it in this economy"

As blaringly simple as it seems, we are ALLOWING these psychic attacks by agreeing with them verbally and mentally.

They cause you to doubt your self, your abilities, and your potential. Thus, you never achieve your potential or realize your goals.

This is the root of it.

It may come in other forms:

A co-worker trips you up and causes you to feel insecure, so you stutter, delay or don't perform as well, and he nails the promotion you were going to get.

Some chick you're dating (by the way, Warriors never "date"), entices you to spend lots of money on dinner and drinks - constantly.

You end up wasting lots of money and time to "maybe" get some physical affection.

Your friends snicker and laugh at you when you share your hopes, dreams and aspirations with them.

The list of daily mental and psychic attack is endless. You are bombarded with it every waking moment.

We are so overwhelmed by it that we absorb it like a sponge and eventually attack ourselves and others around us... without knowing it, without meaning it!

Think about it: Does a fish know it's wet?

And likewise, we don't know we're "wet" with this programming.

It's a "vampire-bit" that infects you, and then impels you to unintentionally go out and infect others.

So how does one recognize and stop mental and psychic attacks as diligently as a highly-trained and proficient MMA fighter?

That's where I come in with this information. So you can win the warfare of DAILY life and prosper, as a warrior.
