Word of the Year

In this powerful episode of Bulletproof Cyber, Dr. Eric Cole dives into the transformative power of awareness and how it’s the foundation for becoming truly bulletproof—both in cybersecurity and in life. He explores the idea of having a "word of the year" to sharpen focus, sharing how awareness became his guiding principle, helping him see beyond the obvious and predict outcomes with precision—just like a grandmaster chess player thinking 12 moves ahead. Dr. Cole draws parallels between mastering awareness in chess and in life, explaining how predictability can make us vulnerable, while unpredictability keeps us ahead of the curve.

But it doesn’t stop there. Dr. Cole challenges the conventional understanding of balance, reframing it not as a static noun but as a dynamic verb—a constant, intentional movement that fuels growth and purpose. He emphasizes that perfect stillness leads to stagnation, while true balance comes from embracing life’s swings and making yourself a priority. Whether it's in cybersecurity or personal growth, this episode offers a profound reminder: when you gain awareness and learn to move with purpose, you become unstoppable. Tune in to uncover how awareness and balance can make you bulletproof.
