Enjoy your exploration. Alrighty, those old saynts, phrases and idioms,
you know, those things like I just did alrighty? Who
started that? Anyway? I mean, come on, your family and
friends have been doing this for how long? And really,
where does it even come from? Because some of it
makes sense othertimes and it doesn't really Who, what, where, why, when?
And how? Some of those old saynts are not only ancient,
but still carry a powerful punch even today. In fact,
I live by one of those old saints. Winning is
a choice. The goal of these episodes is to help
reserve not only a language, but lessons in life. Something
our parents would say, my name is Arrow, shooting from
the hip. It's looked upon as being a literal phrase.
It's how we see it as well as say it.
That affects the way that we act and or think.
I mean, it absolutely originated from the American Old West
very early in the twentieth century, and it involved gunfighting
and the military in training. To shoot from the hip
means firing a handgun without aiming down its sights. It
was faster, instinctive, and all too often necessary in close combat.
But but, but but but far less accurate shooting from
the hip. How did it become part of our everyday
street speak? It's a literal phrase. Shooting from the hip
is speaking on impulse. It's acting out without planning things out.
When we make a decision based upon an instinct, its
speeds are precision. Shooting from the hip has changed us
psychologically as well as culturally. People of authority speak fast.
If there's a hesitation, it kind of shows off a weakness.
Correcting the situation is something we're going to do later on.
Shooting from the hip was once seen as a tactical necessity.
In fact, today it's a communication style. Lots of unexpected misunderstandings.
Oh my god, there's polarization and regret. Shooting from the
hip physically blurs courage and recklessness. It is in bold,
nor is it seen as being confident, shooting from the hip,
something our parents would say. My name is Arrow.
