An attacker merely projects the accumulation of emotions and thoughts of number of experiences.
Whether in an argument or a physical attack, your opponent is acting in accordance to emotional experiences. These experiences are an accumulation of common emotional responses which are ingrained to be part of that person’s character.
Which ultimately means, this persons problem is not all about you, but is influenced by their past.
Example.
A child sees a friend get scolded by a parent. The friend argues back. This experience is ingrained, recalled and can be mirrored by the child during times of confrontation similar to the scolding.
Conversely, if the child sees his friend cry from the scolding, the child can cry during situations similar to the scolding.
Understanding this knowledge allows you to analyze your opponent with clarity and calculate a way to change the experience, altering their emotions so that their reactions change in your favor.
Though do take it to the next level. Observe your own emotional responses to situations. And ask, “are my responses in alignment to the greater good?”
