rounding off the corners vs getting by with stuff.........
I have come to believe that the mind is a magnet and a radio....example...if one has ever been a relationship that had long since gone south but you continue to stick it out until one morning you see the light and get your mind right that it is OVER!!! You go to work at the same time, stop for a cup of coffee at the same place, talk to the same people and basically do everything exactly the same and them realize that by the time you get home you have been asked out on 3 dates.....only difference between yesterday and today was headspace...your mind is a magnet and a radio...that can be trained....
Without question when one pulls into an interaction with anybody with "piss on them" floating around in the back of their minds...everyone around that is paying attention will hear it and react accordingly...the dynamic will instantly change...
When at Sea World last week with my kids, I ignored the sign that there were no weapons allowed in the park and entered carrying a large folding Cold Steel Tanto in my pocket. After we had been in the park for a couple of hours I noticed that I was being flanked by two San Antonio PD. I turned to them and smiled and opened my body language and said "Hey guys"...they approached me on both sides and when close asked if I had a knife. I said "sure" and was told that "it should have never made it into the park." I ask them how they wanted to handle it and was told to drop it into my pocket where it did not show and wished a pleasent visit.....I am sure that if my reaction had not be quite so calm, confident and open they would not have responded so.
I personally had no problem chatting with the polite heavily armed men at the check point because they instantly caught the vibe that I was comfortable with them...
