Thinking Backward regarding Self Defense

My recent reading of the articles on memory and analysis by the CIA I was inspired by this technique as a possible effective technique for anyone who may make a decision to use force in a self-defense situation. As stated by many sources once you make the decision to utilize a tool such as karate in self-defense you are opening the door to legal, medical and civil repercussions.

This particular technique may be a way to "see" a situation from a perspective that might provide a new view before you encounter one to make a fully informed and correct decision on using force for protection. To my mind this is critical thinking before your faced with all those not so nice repercussions to taking a force posture in a threat or conflict.

Take another read of the article or chapter "Keeping an Open Mind: Seeing Different Perspectives: Thinking Backwards" and see if it would fit your training regimen for self-defense.


While your there, take a look at the "Crystal Gall" method as well, it seems valid in this context as well - interesting and informative.

If you try these out and find value in them, let me know. I don't have the resources to try this out in a group.
