The Offensive Mind-Set is a learned, proactive thought process, devoid of fear, that leads to demonstrable physical increases in performance. A person possessed of the Offensive Mind-Set will act rather than react, lead rather than follow, attack rather than defend. Such a person thinks positively, offensively, and affirmatively by taking continuous, absolute action. This thought process is applicable and useful in all human endeavors from sports to business to warfare. The goal of training in Offensive Mind-Set is the total elimination of fear.
Fear is the basis of defensive, reactive thinking.
It makes you hesitate, it makes you incapable of committing to an action, it makes you freeze up. There is no internal debate, indecision, or worry about possible outcomes. You make things happen when they need to happen. The difference between offensive and defensive thinking is as simple to understand as action vs. reaction, cause vs. effect. Defensive thought is concerned with reacting to actions that have already taken place.
