Calm & Prepared There is an order to the life priorities we carry as survivalists, and they apply whether or not we are in a "survival situation" or not. I think sharing this information with everyone can help organize thoughts and priorities for people in a way that makes them less stressful to think through. It is important that we solve problems related to these issues in this order. Circumstances don't change these priorities, although in certain situations some of them may not be fully available to achieve. Let's go down the list and see what needs to be done to check these boxes. *Trigger Warning* The purpose of sharing this information is to aid people in organizing their thoughts and to stay calm, not to be alarmist or sensational. Mike and I were educated as survivalists so much of this information is framed around not dying. Please do not take that as a sign that Mike or I are under the impression that civilization is about to collapse. We both believe strongly that that is not the case, and that sharing information like this can serve to provide confidence to our community. Remember that community is our greatest survival tool, if we take care of eachother during difficult times, we will all be fine.
