Self-Defence Tip: Timing & the 5 Pillars
One of the most powerful tools in self-defence is timing. knowing when to act can be just as important as how you act.
In my 5 Pillars of Self-Defense, Timing (Blue) is where everything comes together. It’s the ability to read a situation and respond before, on, or after the moment.
🔑 Here’s how it connects with the other pillars:
- Awareness (Yellow): Spotting danger early gives you more options.
- Confidence (Orange): Stepping in with certainty helps you act decisively.
- Physical Skills (Red): Your training gives you tools to use when the time is right.
- Timing (Blue): Choosing the right moment makes those tools effective.
- Peacekeeping (Green): Sometimes the best timing is knowing when not to fight.
👉 Think about this: Have you ever reacted too early or too late in a situation — and wished you had chosen a different moment?
Drop your thoughts below. How do you notice timing showing up in your training, sports, or even daily life?
