With the talk of banning certain types of guns and what not, it may have you asking about the 10 best ways to protect yourself in 2013. There are still plenty of ways to do so, whether or not you are aware of it, and not to mention that it’s wise to be cautious of what you buy and keep in the home with small children around.

I’ve been doing some research in light of this topic, and I have to say that while it seems the options are few and far between I am going to share with you some options you may not have considered before.

I am going to share with you the 10 best ways to protect yourself this year, and in the future, simply by using the brain God gave you and your own physical strength!

The 10 Best Ways to Protect Yourself in 2013 by Using Your Smarts

It has been said that if people would just think about what they are doing before they do it, they might do better!

For example, you can protect yourself in the following ways:

1. Use the buddy system. You probably hear this phrase all the time, about using the buddy system, and it’s true. There is never a time when you should walk anywhere alone, or for that matter at night, at the very least! Don’t ever walk alone in alleys, along highways or even side streets for that matter.

2. Always keep your doors locked. While locked doors don’t really stop criminals, it’s still best to keep them locked at all times. Consider that women at home alone could spell trouble when being spied upon by a stranger that could easily push that door open and walk in with you being unaware. Keep them locked for the safety of your children as well.

3. Be aware of your surroundings. Oftentimes, if we are preoccupied by something, we  don’t pay attention to those around us. Aside from using the buddy system, use caution when playing music on your Ipod while jogging alone or walking alone. No where you are, and tell someone before you head out. Also be sure to walk or jog in well lit and moderately populated areas.

4. Avoid risky behavior. While it’s never wrong to have fun, don’t ever put yourself in a bad position with risky behavior. Simply put, spend time with those you love and care about, and know when to leave the bar. Don’t openly share information with people you don’t know, and avoid closing down bars and clubs, especially alone.

5. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry and clothing. If you have great taste in diamonds, Coach, and Tiffany, that’s great! However, don’t make yourself a target by wearing it everywhere you go. If you have it, please don’t flaunt it!

These are just some of the 10 best ways to protect yourself that are non-physical. So, how can you physically protect yourself at all times?

The 10 Best Ways to Protect Yourself Physically

Have you been wondering what the 10 best ways to protect yourself really are? You may not be great with martial arts, but there are tons of ways in which you can easily protect yourself from the physical aspect, as well as following the above tips.

6. Carry yourself with confidence. It is a known fact that attackers and thieves go after those that lack self confidence or appear weak. Keep your head held high, walk with confidence, and don’t be afraid to make noise if you feel that someone is way too close to you.

7. Take a martial arts class. It is so important that if you don’t carry a gun or a knife that you protect yourself by learning how to defend yourself properly. This doesn’t mean that you need to learn all forms of martial arts, but you should start with something basic and work your way up.

8. Strength training. Sometimes, even those that start out taking martial arts, are not the strongest people. It is a good idea to focus on doing some strength training to protect yourself at all times. With this combination, you’ll be halfway there to the 10 best ways to protect yourself.

9. Attempt to reason with them. While this may seem ridiculous, there are many times when reasoning could work well in the beginning. There is certainly a person this works with, and some that would not receive it. Act on your gut instincts, but the hope is that violence is the last resort.

10. Use your voice. When you are attacked, let people know. Using your voice is a great way to let others around you know that you need help, and that you are in danger. Scream as loudly as possible, and by all means, don’t hold back.

I hope that you found these 10 best ways to protect yourself helpful, and that you’ll be safe at all times. Do you have some information to share with others? If so, then let me know!
