On Being Bullied - Mike Tyson Documentary

Image
Never let bullying part of life, neither in own life nor in life of your Kids, Friends or any one. Never be bullying an excuse. Traine our confidence with respect and power up. Because any kind of Fear gives way to insecurity; Insecurity gives way to Evil deed - upon one self or another one - both way bad for the society. If you have no capacity for violence then you are a healthy productive citizen: a sheep. If you have a capacity for violence and no empathy for your fellow citizens, then you have defined an aggressive sociopath—a wolf. But what if you have a capacity for violence, and a deep love for your fellow citizens? Then you are a sheepdog, a warrior, someone who is walking the hero’s path. - An Excellent quote by Grossman in Americal Sniper's by Clint Eastwood.  Very nice and powerful video by Mike Tyson about Bullying on GQ
