CHASE HUGHES: Confidence is a willingness to be socially injured. Just a full openness to social injury.

35:40. When it comes to off camera, who am I off-camera? There are 5 more elements to this, which is  1) How do I manage my environment, which is like do I have French Fries under my driver's seat that have been thee for 8 months?  2) My time.  3) My appearance.  One question we have in the Appearance Assessment and this Authority thing assesses all of this.  APPEARANCE: How would a stranger rate my diet diet on a 1 to 10 if they just looked at me across the room?  Just based on how I look, yeah.  How would they rate my diet and my lifestyle?  So it's Appearance, Social, and Financial.  Also your social skills and how you manage your money so it's just like what you said these unpaid bills that tends to leak out through our body.

36:32. I guess these are all part of DISCIPLINE? 

36:34. These are all part of the AUTHORITY. 

36:36. And one of the components of AUTHORITY is DISCIPLINE?  For me, the way I categorize it is it's all underneath that DISCIPLINE piece and SELF-MASTERY, which you mentioned.

36:45. The first video of yours that I ever watched, probably before you saw any of me, was a dopamine detox video that you did.  You were talking about discipline a lot, and I want to give you a hack that maybe you can use and try it out.  How does reading all this research and stuff on dopamine detox translate to your mammalian brain?  Because you're mammalian brain does not speak English at all; it cannot speak a language.  So when I'm  training operatives or just one-on-one clients, I'm always thinking of how can I make this person understand this at a mammalian level?  How can I teach this to a dog?  So how would I make discipline important to a dog?  And in our mammalian brain the one thing that we really need to think about is imagery, that's we're visual creatures.  We don't have a relationship with our future-self, and the way that I define discipline is my ability to prioritize my Future-Self ahead of my present-self.  So future-me is more important than me right now.  If you have discipline, you're looking backwards with gratitude, you're looking forward with concern.  So how do I get my brain to start understanding that concept?  And what I will do with these clients, there's an app, I can't remember the name of it, there's an app on your phone that can make you look like 90 years old.  Have you seen these things?  So I'll have them use this app, print that out, and hang it in like 10 places in your house so that every single day you're developing a relationship with this older version of yourself.  And what do you do with like after a thousand repetitions?  You're shopping for like a Honda Accord and you finally buy a Honda Accord.  What happens, like they're everywhere, but you didn't tell your brain to look for those cars.  Your brain learned it through repetition and exposure.  So you're doing the exact same thing except on purpose and not on accident.  The Honda Accord thing is an accident; the hanging old version of me pictures all over the place is definitely on purpose.

so it's apparent social and financial your social skills and how do you manage your money

EFFECTIVENESS IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS: CONFIDENCE
40:23, HUGHES.  If I were to sum up confidence in one sentence that no one ever heard but that makes the most amount of sense is "a willingness to be socially injured."  Just a full openness to social injury.  Vulnerability?  Yeah, to where I'm no longer concerned with that level of thing.  And the way that I describe confidence is let's say that the average person makes $60k a year.  And if that person were to walk into a super expensive department store, like Hermes, I think is super, crazy expensive.  If they walked into a Hermes, they're going to see their cheapest bag is like $14 grand, $15 grand.  They're going to walk in there and as soon as they step in they think they're being judged.  And they've proven this.  Even a neutral facial expression that walking into that store will look judgmental.

"Violence, Threats, and Life," Chase Hughes, May 31, 2024.

5:00  This will help you understand how people process decisions, this is called OODA Loop, developed by a former Army colonel, John Boyd, who developed this to illustrate the thought process that fighter pilots, namely fighter pilots, but any personnel in combat, have to go through to respond to violent actions.  OODA stands for Observe, Orient, Decide, and then Act.  Chase doesn't think the OODA Loop is complete.  

He noticed that in training police officers for many years that . . . 

6:00  The OODA loop is not what an attacker or an aggressor goes through that's going to stab a police officer or pull a gun out and shoot a police officer.  

6:23  So I've invented something for police and military officers, called the TFCA Cycle: Threat, Fear, Calculation, and then Action.  So this indicates that suspects or attackers go through a mental process that even though it may be irrational, it is still their mental process and they do this before they take action.. and that officers soldiers military people can capitalize on this by identifying some of these mental processes before the violent behavior starts taking place.  Previously, people were faced with only orienting to a threat AFTER . . . .  Think about this.  I'm only orienting to a threat AFTER the aggressor has decided to take action, and that puts me on the back foot.  So the stuff that I teach the police gives the ability for people to respond to that stuff.

7:27.  So let's talk about TFCA really quick.  This is the stuff that's inside of the suspect or the attacker's mind.  TFCA is the Threat, the Fear, Calculation, and Action.  I am perceiving some kind of threat.  For some people, that might be blue lights in my rear view mirror; that becomes a threat.  For others,  that might be "give me your registration and your ID."  For others, that might be "step out of the car."  Who knows?  They are perceiving a threat.  They start feeling fear.  Can we see fear in behavior?  We've studied behavior profiling, the 6XMinute X-ray.  Can we see fear?  Yes, we are seeing that, yes.  So we can start seeing those indicators of fear.  We have the calculation.  We can start seeing eye movement.  We can see a lot of stuff that indicates calculation and instead of waiting until they take action to start doing something to de-escalate.  We can do a lot of things beforehand, before we start getting shot at, before that knife is in that person's hand.  

COPE concealment, oxygenation, preparation, expenditure.

Averting gaze.  Eyes move downward with the head, not separate.  Gaze will avert in the direction of the dominant hand.  

Sideways gaze aversion is a preflight indicator.  

Humorous Freeze.  Funny bone.  When we see the upper arms stick into the torso, they kind of freeze up against the torso, this is almost always seen in over 95% of the cases right before an attack occurs.

CHASE HUGHES on factors that decide the leader in an interaction

Use this link in case the video is removed.  

So, the officer is being kind and explaining way more than he is required to explain, and I think that's a bad thing that has gotten into a lot of people now like I need to explain everything to these people.  But he's also defending his actions.  He's explaining himself but he's also matching her volume and her tone.  He's essentially getting into an argument.  And I admire this guy's composure, but, in this instance, keep in mind, that two people who have never met will automatically and unconsciously decide who is the leader in that interaction.  This will almost always come down to two factors: number one is the person who's least reactive to the other person; number two is the person with the most composure.  Keep that in mind not just for this video but for your whole life.
