What is Awareness?


What is awareness? Does being aware make me paranoid? How can I be aware during my every day routine without losing focus on my regular activities? How can I incorporate awareness into my day to day life?

Lets ask ourselves these questions before we encounter a dangerous situation or find ourselves at risk.

Many times, I find myself involved in conversations with someone who was recently been exposed to a dangerous situation such as rape, robbery or assault, and a common denominator among victims is that they think about how they could have reacted differently, how they could have avoided the situation, what if....

So what is awareness? Awareness is the ability to see and understand your surroundings. Awareness is not about feeling paranoid, but rather being in a constant state of alert without living in fear. Awareness means not letting yourself be caught by surprise but rather preempt situations.

As a parent for example, you are always aware and preempting possible risks and hazards. Is the toy the baby is playing with too small? Is the gate properly closed? we are always thinking ahead of children's curiosity. Now, let's apply that same principle to your every day life, while loading groceries into your car or searching your purse for the car keys.

So how aware should you be without becoming paranoid? The level of awareness that one person should have is entirely proportionate to their line of work, the place they live, places they visit, lifestyle. Not everyone and certainly not every situation requires the same level of awareness. Your level of awareness should change as your day and activities change.

Once you learn to manage your different levels of awareness, it becomes natural and you stop thinking about it. It becomes like driving, where you are aware of your surroundings, but the mechanics of accelerating and braking or turning the wheel are routine. You'll pay attention to the poorly lighted parking garage as you walk towards your car instead of shuffling through your purse looking for your keys; You'll look around before getting out of the car instead of being distracted talking on the phone; You'll put your groceries into the trunk of your car while at the same time looking at who might be approaching you.

This all requires practice. Make it into a habit to start looking for suspicious situations and changing your routine when running your every day errands. Soon, it will become natural.

Realtor Safety Facts

As a real estate agent, you are often asked by complete strangers to visit vacant properties. What better scenario for a violent attack than this one?
You can ask all the right questions, try to figure out their true motivations, but at the end of the day, you must take people out in order to make a sale, and the truth is that no matter how many questions you asked, this people are still strangers.
Recent statistics show a staggering rate of violent crimes amongst Realtors showing properties. Crime typically goes up when an economic crisis hits.
One in four Realtors has personally experienced incidents or harassing situations while working as a Realtor, and forty percent say they know of other Realtors who have been involved in safety incidents or harassing situations while working as a Realtor.
According to the report, most incidents reported by participating Realtors involved "open houses" or showings of vacant property. Open house concerns range from assault, robbery, sexual harassment, and theft of homeowner items such as prescription drugs. Vacant home safety concerns include threats posed by squatters, vandals, rapists and violent criminals.

What raises concerns are a number of factors including:

* Unexpected individuals who show up at an appointment
* Harassment while working alone
* Unfriendly dogs
* Unsafe property conditions that could cause injury such as icy walkways, stairs
* Threatening calls from individuals based on the agent's photo on 'for sale' signs or business cards
* Being asked to come alone to a showing

They are many tips and plans that you can follow to decrease the possibility of becoming a victim:
Never go by yourself to a showing if the possibility exists, or notify someone that you will show X property and the time and tell them you will call them as soon as ou are finished with the showing.
Stop by the office and make a copy of the driver's license and even take the tag number
Never host an open house by yourself

At AWARE, we believe that the best investment is taking the time to learn how to be aware and to spot dangerous situations so you can avoid them, and to defend yourself if the situation should arise.
This takes practice; the same way as when you learn how to drive or any other task that requires you to react in a dangerous situation. You need to prepare for it before it happens and parctice over and over so it becomes habit. You may only have a few seconds to react, but that can make all the difference.

We recommend you to see some of our seminars .It is never too late to learn

Thank you

Some self defense tips for todays world

Most people are so busy living their life and forget that are other people looking for the right opportunity to find someone that can become an easy target.
One of the most common mistakes I see is at the mall, how do i say that? you can see so many women walking from the mall to their car exited for all the shopping they just did and forgetting that at that same moment can be someone looking for that particular women. So may things can happen in does 3 minutes before you get in to your car. Most abductions, rapes or simple robberies happen during that moment.

So here are 5 tips:

1. Don’t Ignore Your Surroundings

Pay attention to your environment. Focus on where you are going. if you are in the phone just the other person if you can call him back in 5 minutes or a soon as you are in your car, look around you to see if there are any potential problems. Worry about strangers hanging around your car; why are they there?


2. Have a Plan

I believe this is one of the most important things to do. You know that if you are confronted and you have a plan you will increase your chances. You need to be AWARE so you can react. this is were learning with professionals can open your eyes, sometimes things that sound so simple can make a big difference,this techniques can be incorporated in your daily activities and can save your life and your family.



3. Do Not Give Up

Take the time to learn self-defense. When attacked, don’t ever stop fighting back.


4. Do Not Rely on a Lethal Weapon

Unless you know how to use one effectively and are always carrying, have a back up plan. The best weapons you have is you.


5. Do Not Wait to Be Attacked Before Responding

Each point has so many variations and every situation require a different reaction, the most important thing is how you train yourself to be AWARE and how to react in a dangerous situation


Good Luck
