Situational Awareness

I have a simple question for everyone today. How are your observation skills?

Shocking, isn’t it?

Now imagine what you miss during your every day activities…

If you did like me and missed everything in the video, here are a few simple tricks to increase your observation skills:

  • Pick out unique details about someone or something.
  • Keep your head on a swivel. See how many unique details you can discover about the people around you.
  • As in the video above, don’t focus on one thing for too long. The action may move around and draw your focus there, but remember to keep an eye on the overall picture.

Don’t get caught flat-footed again!
