 What happened was when he started training CL Team 6 in Virginia Beach, then these guys took his whole system and actually applied it in combat, but they also would apply it into biker bars and the bars seen down in Virginia Beach and come back with infield reports much like the seduction community, right? What happened with this? This guy came out of the blue. So it was so very similar, but out of this, this idea of killer instinct evolved. So it evolved to a point where when I started training with him, he still had government people coming to his house. We had a lot of the CL Team. So I got very intimate, got to see behind the scenes of this development of this because this is the key, especially if you're talking about a combat situation, the SEALs have to be able to turn their killer instinct on and turn it off. That's part of what we're talking about. We have to have the ability to go from 0 to 100, but back to 0 to keep a calm head, does no good if you're in a flung range firefight to be at 100. You have to keep a calm head and this is the same thing in a street fight. If we start out at 100 and we're matched with a superior size biker who's spent some time in prison, he's on steroids, PCP, and he wants to eat your face, right? If we go force on force with that, especially me with my size, I'm going to lose. So there's a time and place to tap into this side of ourselves. When we do tap into it, it is that killer sadistic total disdain for that which is in front of you. That's a person who is trying to hurt you. But I want to go back and I'm going to use the analogy of a street fight because I'm not, I'm hoping none of you ever has the street fight. But really, the street fight is an analogy for life, right? There's struggle, there's opposition, there's stress. There's hopefully sometimes when you're in trouble, your friends will jump in but most of the time you're left to fend for yourself, okay? There's a beginning and there's an end and sometimes there are those that conspire against you. So it really is an analogy of a struggle. But I don't want you to think of just this in the context of a street fight because when I break this down, the killer instinct, right? We can put any context in there. We can take out the word street fight and we can put pickup. We can take out the word pickup and we could put, you know, business negotiation. So these elements in killer instinct are going to be there. It's just to what degree do we express them? We're not going to express this when we're in a business negotiation. But we may need that unspoken to get that negotiation, okay? And I'll share a story later on that Phil, one of my students shared with me before we got on. It's a good demonstration of killer instinct. But I want to get into a little bit more of what this is. And part of it is being able to turn it on and turn it off. See, the turning off part is just as important as turning it on because we do have to keep a calm head. We have to assess. We have to see when the opportunity presents itself so that we can go in and destroy that which is trying to destroy us. Make sense? Okay? So let's talk about killer instinct a little bit more. What I call, just for demonstration purposes, we're going to look at things as a scale, right? And in the context of a street fight, we'll call this the scale of bad intentions, right? When it's not a street fight, we can call it the scale of intent and action. Because what I'm going to give you today is really, it's really a way for you to tap into a part of yourself that's there. Everybody has it. Believe me, I know. Because I was that introverted kid. In fact, my wife, before I came here, I told her she couldn't come because I get a little nervous, right? And so we had the luxury of going back home to see my family. And of course, anytime that happens, your family has evidence of what you used to be, right? And I was the head geek. I was actually the drum major for my band, which you can imagine didn't help my fighting life very much, right? But while I was there, unbeknownst to me, my mom had given her some plaques that I had earned as being the drum major in the band. So she was bringing those out, because I told her she couldn't come. She said, well, while you're talking about killer instinct, just remember who you are. I was like, oh, and then I demonstrated this side of killer instinct and I let her live, right? Took that. So, but that's part of it. So it's something that, the reason I'm sharing that is because it's something we can develop. If I can develop it, anybody can. And we need to develop it, not because we're gonna go out in street fight, but because as men, we don't get to express ourselves. We don't get to tap into the side often enough. And conversely, some of us are so much here, we don't know how to do this, right? Where we're gonna get more in touch with our friends inside, more assessing. And both are equally important, okay? And what happens is by going to these extremes, you gain emotional mastery, okay? You're gaining a part of yourself. You're waking up that sleeping giant within yourself because it's a primal driver, okay? It is key or, gee, it is life force that you tap into, okay? It's not something we can sustain 100% of the time or even for very long because it taps our physical strength. But when you go there, and I'll show you how to do that, more often, you will get more things for yourself. You'll be more assertive, okay? And you don't even have to oftentimes say anything because this is a primal mover of our species. And when you tap into it, other people, you will move other people. They will sense it, okay? And the same thing on this side. And we're able to turn it down and we're okay with not being that, okay? Makes sense so far? Okay, so the scale of bad intentions. Killer instinct is knowing both where you're at and where your opponent is at on that scale of bad intentions so that you have both the ability and the knowledge to act accordingly in conjunction with that which opposes you, okay? So in a conversation, it's that perfect timing of when to enter that close, okay? Or when to interject whatever it is you need to get your goal, okay? In a street fight. And once again, this is the analogy. But most people, when they wanna fight you, they're gonna do so out of anger, okay? Some people, they'll attack you for criminal reasons but most of the time, a street fight is somebody out of anger. And I wanna make this distinction. When I talk about a street fight, I'm talking about a life and death situation. I'm not talking about two guys going on the street and settling things, okay? Because we have to treat it with the respect it deserves, okay? Any physical altercation can turn deadly. Even it's a shoving match. Someone can shove you, you fall down, hit your head, you're dead, okay? You push somebody, they hit your head, they're dead. And you have to treat it like that. So if we decide to go to this, our life is on the line in a street fight, okay? That's very important. But this is in a blind rage. This is a focus state that I'm gonna teach you how to get that will help other areas of your life. And you don't have to develop it through fighting. But this is what I'm talking about. So we have this state and when somebody is going to attack you, usually they're gonna be at a 10. Let's say it's a scale of one to 10. They're pissed off. Where we wanna be is at a zero or a one, okay? We need to assess what's going on. We have to open our focus and our awareness to see what's happening, okay? If we have the luxury of space. If we're gonna fight and you're over there, this is good for me, provide there's no weapons.
