The Fundamentals Of Verbal Self-Defense

Verbal self-defense can be categorized in to three parts.

  • Deciphering the situation

  • Listening instead of reading between the lines

  • Mastering the art of responding

Deciphering The Situation: This is the most important part to consider in a verbal defense program. It would be wise to understand the psychology of a verbal attacker & reason of his attack instead of getting hurt. If a person is showering hostile words on you, he is not doing it just for the heck of it or because it is his hobby to do so. Chronic verbal abusers behave the way they do for one of two reasons:

  • Lack Of Education: Most verbal abusers are not aware of any other way of communication. All they need is education & all you need to do is to ignore them & their comments completely.

  • Desire To Get Attention: The leftover population engaged in verbal abuse is desperate for attention. Hence, ignoring these people would also serve the purpose and in case you still find the attacker's behavior unacceptable, it would be better to turn around & flee!

Listening Instead Of Reading Between The Lines: Listening to the speaker is very significant for communication. Speaking or jumping into conclusions way before a person completes this speech would result into a misunderstanding that could also take shape of a big argument. Hence, the key is to understand what the communicator means by being patient & listening to him carefully.

Mastering The Art Of Responding: Most people tend to respond a verbal attack by offering a person back what he/she has offered them. This may be by abusing a person in return or using malicious words to subdue the other person. This actually results in a more serious argument as you are encouraging your attacker.

Remember, silence is the most severe punishment a verbal abuser could get. It is a different kind of counter attack. Remember, "Silence is golden." The verbal self-defense system helps a person lead a comfortable & happy life. Follow it and see the difference!
