Predators will assess everything about you, both verbally and nonverbally. If they perceive you as strong and aware of your surroundings, aka a counter-predator, they will move on to someone less likely to fight back. Therefore, when you’re out in the world, present yourself with an air of vigilance and assurance. Walk with your shoulders back and head up. Don’t be afraid to make eye contact with people. Show awareness. And if something doesn’t feel right, don’t neglect it. You dictate what role you want to play in this world.
