One of these days has looked a film «Forbidden kingdom», such entertaining mordobojnyj the insurgent in style of comics at a kung fu theme. Actors play perfectly though basically, the film is more calculated on teenagers, but there there are also very interesting moments. At me, likely brains somehow not so are arranged, that I in all see, first of all, the things having practical value and value.
All plot I will not retell, one concrete moment, concerning article themes is interesting – how to overcome fear. There there was such situation … the Young girl-soldier who in the childhood has lost all family, many years dream to revenge the murderer of the native. It seriously practises fighting arts and becomes the master of a kung fu. Here only there is one problem – the remained children's fear of violence and fear before the murderer.
The villain – very abrupt and severe soldier having strong magic abilities, the big power and the whole crowd of bodyguards without whom does not leave anywhere. In addition he also lives in a protected fortress. To steal up to it it is very difficult also because this person has very developed intelligence and the good psychologist that is why – easily feels when others feel fear or try to deceive him.
On a film it is visible, that our heroine hides the fear under a mask of indifference, contempt and aggression, but actually it very much the gentle person at whom the fear of death has outgrown in internal aggression and bents to a suicide. And so, not to be afraid, this girl constantly uses one interesting reception – discharges itself of practically any occurring events.
She speaks about herself exclusively in the third party ("it", to "it", "it", «about it», etc.) and tries to be not involved in a situation, not to test any emotions. Thus, the girl has an opportunity to participate in events and to estimate them from a position of the detached onlooker which the fear simply does not concern. This dispassionateness allows to it more serious chances to change a situation to own advantage.
The technics interesting enough, but this lifehak, is more exact psychological reception, is dangerous that at the person the real schizophrenia – a banal dual personality can quite develop. Only at very developed comprehension and constant self-checking it will be possible to avoid it.
And still, associates without ceremony can regard your reaction as inadequate, and accordingly - it is wrong to understand and cause you hospital attendants with durki.
It seems to me, that though this psychological reception and works, but it not the best way to overcome the fear. By experience of employment by fighting arts I can tell, that in a situation more or less rigid sparringa and furthermore – struggle for a life, switching-off of thoughts and full involving in the action much more effectively works, as much as possible full concentration on the actions.
The fear of death, as well as practically any other kinds of fears, only stirs to a survival, for certain almost all saw, if not in a life, at cinema as at the person the panic begins. Often he simply stupidly shouts or brakes, running into a stupor instead of silently jumping aside aside from the car rushing on it, an animal, the monster or still something similar.
It turns out, absence of fear automatically gives to the person much more an every prospect of a survival, blocks and restrictions which are imposed by mind, psychological complexes act in film, and the system "person", as a whole, works with the big EFFICIENCY and capacity. Or you beat, or run, it is not important, here the main thing – absence of thoughts that does impossible fear occurrence.
Speed of reaction grows, the physical body is dispersed faster. The matter is that at switching-off of thoughts and full concentration, comprehension of level of an intuitive body, speed of reaction and speed at which 10 times more, than at logic thinking automatically joins. Accordingly, the physical body under its management, becomes faster and effective in a stressful situation.

Besides a forbidden kingdom imeei the sense to have a look “the Kung fu the Panda” and “Alexander. The Neva fight”. And to describe see business from three points of view - the West, the east (adapted under the West) and ours serednjak.
Is not present?
Interesting article, it completely agree with the author. But such switching-off too is desirable for holding under the control. After such switching-off of thoughts you and itself do not remember, that has occurred (you tell then), and in a corner the cut down body of your enemy lays - and then it becomes terrible - as and to kill it is possible … (from personal experience).
In a situation dangerous to a life to think much more dangerously, than to disconnect thoughts and to react intuitively. An own life and a life of close people it is always non-comparable more expensively, than any possible problem with "cut down" or even the killed enemy (for example, the maniac).
And completely to supervise the actions at switching-off of thoughts it is unreal, the logic device is disconnected, hence and to estimate actions/events it is impossible.
Anything it is not dangerous. The sight at from the party still never was dangerous. And distantsirovanie from itself not the dangerous. In the second before to frighten readers, the author! Esteem in an Internet about so-called "shizu".
For today even psychiatrists plainly cannot tell that this such. And many psychiatrists are inclined to consider "shizoj" easier set of mental illnesses or frustration which simply do not get under other categories. Many psychiatrists do not consider a dual personality "shizoj".
The elementary поиcк in gugle from the first links gives the chance to read about this pleasure:< 
Switching-off of thoughts - it agree. But here “full involving” that this such. How can be not full? I.e. you beat and you eat morozhennoe? This incomplete? 8-))))
The uttermost delirium. Fear of death, and as a matter of fact a self-preservation instinct one of two MOST! Strong instincts. (The second - an instinct of continuation of a sort). And so the fear of death protects the person. And to it people listen.
For this reason we do not sit down in a bathroom with the included toaster in hands. Also we do not look in a petrol tank mouth highlighting themselves a lighter. From for fear of death. Separate imbitsilnye which the fear of death does not stir the person - sit down in a bathroom and look in a petrol tank. Happens. But the natural law of natural selection puts at once all on places.
But there is a question - what to do? Or to sit and be afraid of all or nothing to be afraid basically. As well as in all bipolar questions - true
In the middle. The fear should be. And it should be considered. And when it is necessary to hold podkontrolem. And sometimes and to overcome.
It not fear. It is a stupor. For those who something understands in programache is “a dead cycle”. But it HAS been caused by fear! But not the fear is guilty,
Your mentality of times at it such stupid reaction is guilty. (From what I kind
Gives. Read above. A petrol tank + the Lighter = the Darvinian award. Besides here at the author “horses, people and hundred thousand tools” () have mixed up in a heap. The fear is fear. Think of it thoughts.
Here it completely agree.
In my opinion, the fear is an instinct of self-preservation. At all it is. The difference consists only in reaction of the person. In extreme situations someone runs into a stupor, someone starts to behave aggressively, and someone has abilities to the cold analysis of a situation and to calculation.
Last variant, in my opinion, is more preferable, as in this case speed of reaction and thought incorporates to fearlessness and full pofigizmom. Actions become supereffective. At KK it is called “as a place without pity”.
I do not know how much a method samotstranenija it is effective, but I tried razgovarit with myself from two persons. Usually at the person it is a monologue, and I had a dialogue and even there were some disputes, like it, for example:
To put it briefly, the kojko-place in psihlechebnitse is provided. A life, all the same, not game here again it is impossible to be switched in a kind from the third party. It is much better and more useful to be engaged in fighting arts and self-control of a mental spirit to feel more confident a daily life. I not absolutely understand, if this heroine - the master mordoboja why she then is afraid of someone? Unless she does not know Bruce Li :)?

To understand the reason, to look a film easier.
But in general, the family of this heroine was killed by the villain, such to itself … And her (then still the little girl) mum has lowered massacre on a cord in a well that enemies there have not noticed the child. I think, such impressions should run on for the rest of the life everybody.
The psychological trauma connected with death of parents and strong fear, moreover at children's age, can influence then the person all life, and even acquaintance to Bruce Li here will change nothing.
It is true. But as they say, like cures like. In this light to me other film, “the stranger against a predator” is recollected. It, I hope, all looked. In this film "predator" at me associate, for some reason, with Indians.
If I am not mistaken, Indians had a process initsiatsii when the young man became the man. In a course initsiiatsii the young man was exposed to various tests which proved its courage, dexterity and boldness. Quite often young men had to battle to a wild animal alone and with risk for the life.
As is known, Indians removed also scalps. The more at you them, the more abruptly you were. The predator too collected trophies, but it were skulls and backbones. And the the opponent was more serious, the the victory more considerably was considered. That is why in a film predators especially were not interested in people - much more dangerous contenders, “worthy opponents”, i.e. strangers were necessary to them.
I here like philosophy of predators: to fight up to the end, without dependence from that you will survive or not, the main thing not to surrender. Especially I liked a scene when two or three predators fight on a pyramid with a horde of coming strangers. And during the following moment one of predators, seeing, that they "do not take out", includes the megabomb on a hand and takes out all on hundred kilometres in district, well and certainly itself perishes.
Morals in what: it is unimportant, that the opponent big and malicious (it even is welcomed), the main thing to manage to temper the spirit. You can and will lose, but will die as the soldier, in struggle. And Bruce Li spoke: ”to win, you should release the ambitious mind, accept possibility of defeat and learn art to die.”
But today I am am excited with other question. We infrequently have stressful situations, and a daily life with its monotony destroy all attempts to be beyond usual comprehension. The primitive person in this plan had much more advantages, vyzyvov was more. In my opinion, such calls today does not suffice the person.

This problem dares elementary, approach to crowd gopnikov, and declare to them, that they are persons of nonconventional sexual orientation …
the Call is guaranteed! 
Precisely, and I will make :)!
Into the account gopnikov, cool, the Call precisely will turn out …
Same only a film! In my opinion very naive!
I with it categorically do not agree, in fear the person is more critical thinks.
2 Adviser
And I also said, that the film is calculated on teenagers.
Basically, it is characteristic practically for all Chinese, Thai and Korean films.
Simply in a film the real technics of struggle against fear is shown, on what I and wished to specify in a post.
2 Russian radio
About what critical thinking there can be a speech, if the person very often for fear simply in a stupor? And after all it already, almost for certain, means the failure.
Or a paralysis as at a rabbit before a boa, or knees were turned in, force and speed … the Opponent was gone has already won. Even without physical collision. Such person is simply doomed …
The fear, it first of all the danger warning … is a good phrase, et only fools are afraid of nothing - and real boys always on change! And consequently live long!
