Introduction
Whether we like it or not, the affluent societies we have built for ourselves are not always as reliable as we need them to be. Our communities are made to be efficient. They were designed for everyday life in a modern world, so long as everyday life does not include any form of disaster that disrupts the system. The minute one small disaster strikes, though, the entire system can be thrown off course, and anywhere from hundreds to billions of people can be affected by the derailing of the system. This means that, despite how well it works on a good day, the system is unreliable, and you should always have a backup plan for when the system fails.
Backup plans can range from simple adjustments you can make to your everyday life to get through disruptions to your usual system and elaborate ideas for how you will escape and survive without any access to the modern system. And before you think, I dont need something that elaborate! I encourage you to think again. Natural disasters are increasingly common, with devastating fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and even pandemics coming through and causing destruction for the populations they impact. In some cases, that destruction can be devastating and can lead to secondary injury, illness, or even death as people find themselves unable to access necessary resources like food, water, or shelter, or they become injured or killed by a damaged environment.
Knowing how to escape a dangerous situation and survive, no matter what the circumstances, is an important part of staying alive. As efficient as our system may be, if it fails, you must know how to survive on your own. With so many disasters that strike our society every year, you never know when one might strike you.
Learning how to survive is not nearly as challenging as you might think, though it does require some basic understanding of what you need to survive, and how you can safely acquire these resources. Clear guidance, combined with common sense and your built-in instincts will help you survive anything that might come your way.
If you are ready to discover how you can survive anything, lets begin.
Chapter 1
Essential Task List Of Survival
Surviving any situation requires you to know the five requirements of survival, and how you can safely secure those resources. Those who have never survived on their own must understand the importance of safely acquiring necessary resources without expending too much energy. In any survival situation, even minor ones, preserving energy and doing things in a logical manner is the best practice for securing your survival.
The essential task list of survival looks different depending on whether you are in a minor survival situation or a major disaster. In a small survival situation, you do not evacuate the premises so that you will be securing your survival from the comfort of your own home. In an extreme survival situation, you are required to evacuate the premises, so you will need to secure all of these things away from home, possibly in an off-grid situation. At home, emergencies can be classified as minor survivalist emergencies, whereas off-grid survival situations are major emergencies. If you find yourself away from home, but not in need of off-grid survival, you will want to select the survival practices that best fit your individual situation so you can survive in those unique circumstances.
No matter what your circumstances are, to secure your survival, you will require water, shelter, fire, food, and safety. The order in which you acquire these will depend on what stage you are in the unfolding emergency.
Minor Emergency Survival Task List
A minor emergency could be anything from an injury sustained at home, to a house fire, or other similar emergencies. Power outages, storms that make travel dangerous (but that do not affect your ability to stay home,) and other similar events are also minor emergencies. As the crisis is unfolding, you are in an active state of emergency. All minor emergencies, however, are usually isolated quickly, and you can move into a state of recovery rapidly. The exception may be in the instance of storms, such as winter storms, where you are unable to leave your home, so you must stay there. In these scenarios, you cannot guarantee when they will end, though the recovery from these storms is usually relatively quick and does not require evacuation.
If you find yourself in one of these situations, your task list for survival includes: secure safety, water, food, fire, and shelter, and get help.
Task #1: Secure Safety
Securing your safety is paramount in a situation where a minor emergency is unfolding. These emergencies can pose threats to your immediate safety, and if they are not mitigated, you could find the crisis growing more significant and more devastating by the minute. For example, if your house is on fire and you do not seek safety first, you run the risk of being burnt to death.
To effectively secure your safety, you need to ensure that you are aware of what the dangers are and who is around you so you can aid them in achieving their safety, too. However, you must never make the mistake of ensuring their safety first. If you are not safe, you will not be able to guarantee the safety of someone else. Often, in a state of panic, individuals will risk their safety to save someone else, only to put themselves in a dangerous situation where they are now both in need of being rescued by someone else. Sadly, this leads to many deaths. For example, if your friend were drowning in fast-moving water, it would not be safe for you to jump in to save them because rather than being able to save them, you, too, would begin drowning in fast moving water. It is extremely challenging to put your own safety above others at times, but if you do not, you may find yourself also becoming extremely injured or even killed in a failed rescue mission.
