Martial Arts and Self Defense Articles, The Self Defense Company

When I was young I read “The Death of a Salesman”, the Classic story of chasing the American dream of wealth and success. This story hit home at an early age. One of the major messages is that you should pursue something you really care about. Because when you find something you’re passionate about, the rest will always take care of itself. After reading that story, it became my belief that if I found something I loved, the rest would fall into place. At first, after I graduated college, it was all about the money. I wanted to buy things and accumulate as much wealth as possible. But at the end of the day, they were just things and it was just money. Like an addict, you get caught in a cycle of trying to recapture that initial feeling. Soon I was going to have a pile of things and that’s it. I realized early that there has to be something more.

Now its 15 years later and I have figured out how to earn a living doing what I believe in without compromising my integrity. But more than that, I am not in the business of Self Defense, I’m in the business of really helping people help themselves. Now this didn’t happen without some serious trials and tribulations. Like you, I had a few major problems to solve.

The major issues you have to address to avoid winding up like Willy Loman are three:
First finding something you believe in. Since you’re reading this, that question is answered.

Second, putting a price on your passion; it’s difficult to attach money to something you feel so strongly about. Associating love with money is difficult some times, but if the message and service are presented in the correct manner, people will see the value in what you offer and will gladly compensate you for it. The trick is how to present yourself and your product.

Finally, finding people who appreciate the value in what you have to offer. Knowing how and where to find people who appreciate what you do and feel the need to protect themselves and their loved ones is the final piece of the puzzle.

The Professional Instructor program solves all three issues without going broke in the process (and you can do it while you still have your day job). Unlike most martial arts programs that are designed to target children, the Self Defense Company Professional Instructor Program is targeted towards adults, a market segment desperately in need of real personal protection skills.

The Self Defense Company mission is to spread the truth about self defense. Between the Self Defense Training System and a world wide network of Professional Instructors we will have the tools to make our mission a reality, but we’re not there yet. We need “feet on the street” to make this happen. That’s where you come in. Through our unique training program, we are ale to develop a strong and confident network of instructors. Between video, seminars and other forms of media interaction we are able to train you and maintain the level of integrity we’ve come to expect.
