She said I know 3 ways to kill a man.

Our lives are full of old antiquated beliefs that are not serving us in our own best interest. We have witnessed this over and over through history.The world is not flat, the earth does rotate, muscle does not turn to fat and the list goes on and on.
I bring this up because last week I was invited to give a lecture to a small group on the subject of self-defense. I jumped at the chance to do so, because self-defense is a subject that I have a great passion about sharing with others.
The lecture/workshop went very well and I got some very positive feedback from all the people there.
When I do these lectures/workshops I always have a person ask about or tell me a secret they know about in the martial arts. It never fails…and I always know what they are going to tell me.
This night was no different from the rest. A small older lady walked over to me and said, “I know 3 ways to kill a man.” I said, You do? I knew what she had on her mind, but I just had to ask. Tell me….what is one of those ways? She told me that she had went through some training years ago and the number one way to kill a man is by hitting him square in the face and driving the bone of his nose through his brain.
I knew it! I knew she was going to say that….it never ever fails!
That is an old Hollywood bit from an old, old movie. It is physically impossible to do that. Your nose has no bone to speak of and think about how far away your brain is from your nose.
If a person was to die from a strike to the nose it is not because the bone of the nose went through the brain.
How many old beliefs do you have that may be holding you back from your success in life?

Last year (I think…time flys!) a student in Australia questioned whether goldfish really had only 3 seconds of memory. The result was this common myth was proved wrong.
Great title for the post.

Dammit! Now I only know of two ways to kill a man! Jokes aside, our beliefs are often big trouble makers…

Hi Lynn,
What an excellent point to investigate the veracity and the healthfulness of our beliefs.
I know a way to as well. Disparage him as his wife. Or instead, build our house daily rather than tearing it down.
Don’t you think?I always admire how you build people up in all your relationships.

I don’t know any way to kill a man and that might be a good thing! lol I bet it is a lot harder to break someone’s neck than it looks in those old Bruce Lee movies. It seems that inevitably in a movie where there is a lot of martial arts that someone will twist someone elses head and break their neck.

your point is well taken. my parents told me so many things(and the nose bone is one of them)that were not true. had they questioned any of those old beliefs they would have found out the truth quickly…but it’s easier to believe than to question.
