Go through your normal days. What do you do on an average weekday or weekend?

Step by step you should think about the situation and even live in it. For example, if you usually head to work at 6 am and you park your car outdoors, then one of your first potential problem areas is walking from your home to that car.

What objects are in your area or on your body that can be your weapons of defense in this type of situation? Could you take an umbrella with you to the car to use to hit someone? Perhaps you can carry sprays in your hand to protect you?
