Standing your ground
It seems to me that the people in Egypt are Standing their Ground in a clear assertive manner. And winning the moment. Not certain or even knowing exactly what the result would be, they took different action and got a result – and, one they wanted.
Take this cue, see how this technique worked for the ordinary passionate about themselves folk – if you don’t like what is going on and you are still doing the same thing – take different action. Take support alongside you if you want encouragement and guidance of course, but take action.
