New Safety Guide Offers Practical Advice to Help Prevent

Retired Navy Senior Chief Shares Vital Personal Safety Tips in "It CAN Happen to You"
A new book by retired Navy Senior Chief James E. Hawkins brings everyday safety into focus with practical advice designed to help readers avoid becoming victims of crime. Titled It CAN Happen to You , this informative guide blends personal experience, research, and real-world scenarios to empower individuals to be more alert and prepared in public spaces.

Drawing on a 23-year military career and specialized training in tactical security and awareness, Hawkins addresses the growing need for personal vigilance. His straightforward, no-nonsense approach helps readers understand how to recognize potential threats, prepare for different environments, and react wisely if danger arises. From parking lots and convenience stores to malls and grocery aisles, It CAN Happen to You offers readers a detailed look at the subtle yet critical steps they can take to stay safe.

Central to the book is the emphasis on prevention. Hawkins repeatedly encourages a shift from reaction to awareness, promoting a mindset where readers continuously assess their surroundings. The book introduces concepts like "gut feeling" and "Cooper's Color Codes" tools for improving situational awareness and personal preparedness. These strategies are not just for those with military or law enforcement experience; they're presented in a way that makes them accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds.

The book also offers tailored advice on how to safeguard personal items like purses, wallets, and backpacks, often targets for thieves and pickpockets. With a detailed discussion on the types of bags that attract criminals and how they're commonly accessed, readers will find practical recommendations for securing their belongings in crowded or high-risk areas.

Importantly, the book does not rely on fear but encourages empowerment through knowledge. Hawkins makes it clear that while crime is an unfortunate reality, individuals have more control over their safety than they may think. Through consistency and habit-forming behaviors, readers can improve their odds of avoiding dangerous encounters.

What sets It CAN Happen to You apart is its real-world applicability. Rather than offering abstract advice, the book breaks down common daily activities and suggests how to approach them more safely. It's a resource intended not just for reading, but for adopting as a practical part of daily life.

Hawkins dedicates the book to his late wife, whose encouragement inspired him to write and share his knowledge with a broader audience. Now living in East Texas, he continues to advocate for public awareness and personal safety through this timely and informative work.

It CAN Happen to You is available in ebook, paperback, and hardcover editions. Readers looking for a realistic, accessible guide to improving their safety in everyday environments will find this book both useful and enlightening.
