In order to become a survivalist, you need to be prepared for anything: disasters, economic collapse, or the apocalypse. Follow these steps to ensure your survival. First, you will need to formulate a disaster plan, a secure location, a strong backpack, a knife with a fixed blade, gallons of bottled water, canned goods or freeze dried emergency foods, a lighter, knowledge in first aid, sewing kit, a map, and combat skills enough to defend yourself.
Create a plan of action. Choose a location that you can retreat to easily and spend a few days in necessity. Keep a backpack in your home that contains all your basic needs at the ready and place your fixed-blade knife in your backpack – you will need it. Keep a supply of bottled water in your home in case the tap water is contaminated. Store a supply of canned goods in your home that will last you at least five days. Learn how to harvest edible vegetation to find out which wild plants are edible or poisonous; you can do this by constantly reading survival books. Learn how to fish and hunt; train yourself on how to properly clean a fish or skin furred animals in case you have an opportunity to hunt or fish while on the go. Learn how to construct a tent using the materials around you like sticks and leaves because it will be extremely helpful especially when you have to stay away from a bad weather. If weather proved to be unrelenting, take refuge on caves or anywhere big enough that you can crawl in; be careful for snakes though and always check the area. Always keep a lighter or a waterproof match on your person; however, learn beforehand on how to start a fire using sticks. If by some reason you will have an injury, don’t go to the hospital since it will be overcrowded; this is why you have to learn the essential medical knowledge beforehand. Invest in learning combat skills, you will need it. And finally, work out and stay in shape because your strength is the key point of your survival; plus, survival will involve a whole lot of running.
For your food storage, keep those easy to prepare emergency foods that have long shelf life like freezedriedemergencyfoods because it will be your sustenance. There is no right time for a disaster to strike, so always supply your food stash. There are a lot of web sites to choose from that sells long term emergency foods. However, choose wisely because a lot of the products will promise you longer shelf life but only lasts for a couple of years. I highly recommend the freeze dried emergency foods because their products have been tested and proven by bona fide survivalists.
