Watch everyone and every thing...if it walks like a duck, be prepared to become a duck slayer if need be...always have a plan.
It's hard to teach someone to be alert. It's a mental attitude, a way of life, so to speak. One has to stay aware of those around and/or moving closer.
The fact that you are aware and asking about awareness is a step in the following direction.
My wife and I will sometimes ask each other about strangers who pass us or are a ways away, i.e. color of hair, number of children, etc. It is sort of a game of awareness.
Stay armed (with knowledge, if that's all you have)...stay alert...stay safe!
