Although I'm pretty relaxed and laid back and would like to take some classes on SA, there were times when I have used this natural instinct and, well uh, be careful. It can be used against you more than it is favored. Just sayin. JMHOAre you intentional about your situational awareness?
Or, do you trust that you'll "just know" when something bad is about to happen?
Or, do you not worry about it because you think you'll react quickly enough and correctly if you are surprised by something bad happening?
I am intentional. I watch for things that seem out of place and look for unusual patterns. I think in term of Cooper's Color Code.
What do you do?
