Survival Networking

How do you see yourself? Are you a lone wolf? Do you trust in yourself above all others when it comes to your survival? A lot of 'preppers' are very determined people who will stick to their guns when it involves the survival of themselves and their families. Some individuals find more comfort in having a support group they can rely on during an emergency situation. Networking can be a viable option in terms of survival. It means you don't have to manage everything all by yourself. 

When perilous times hit, people will be pushed to the limit, going above and beyond the normal scope of their psychological and physical capabilities. When you belong to a network of like-minded people it gives you a community that works together to help save lives. This kind of support can be life saving. However, you shouldn't wait until a disaster strikes before you start getting ready. Being caught off guard can truly be devastating.

Networking can be a viable option in terms of survival. It means you don't have to manage everything all by yourself. When perilous times hit people will be pushed to the limit, going above and beyond the normal scope of their psychological and physical capabilities.

What one family is lacking in another family may have in excess. Survival families can trade knowledge, skills, and resources to strengthen the community as a whole. Each person in the community has the ability to trade skills and resources to the betterment of the group. A lot of communities are a mix of gardeners, cooks, truck drivers, welders, contractors, electricians, and many other useful crafts. When you pool all of these resources you have a powerful support system to help you stay alive in a disaster situation.


THE LONE RANGERS 

Not everybody likes the idea of belonging to a group. Networking just isn't their strong suit. They would rather go it alone and count only on themselves for survival. Lots of survivalists don't even like to let other people know they are 'preppers'. They feel like others may try to exploit them and their goods. During desperate times even your good friends and neighbors could come after your stockpiles. They'll want your guns, food, water, and more. So keeping it a secret appeals to many survivalists. Of course, you couldn't put iron bars on the windows or dig trenches around your property without drawing a lot of attention. 

Mostly the lone wolf mentality comes from just a personal attitude. If your family is large and your resources are limited to the point you can only take care of you and your family, it may be better to hide the fact that you have those resources available.

Think Outside the Box

Again, when most people are thinking about self-defense the first things that come to mind are guns, ammo, pepper spray, and knives. In chapter 8 we'll discuss more on these types of weapons but first we'll go over some of the less conventional types of weapons you can use to defend yourself and your home. Be practical and creative in your thinking.  Practice thinking on the run. Go over different attack scenarios in your mind and then look around you and figure out the best way to react with what's right there in front of you. Opportunities and objects will suddenly jump out at you. These are excellent mind drills that can really pay off big time if a crisis should arise.  A Weapon in Each Room is Good Planning  There are a lot of objects laying around people's homes that can be potential weapons to use for self-defense. If you sit down and take a hard look around you can spot these objects and mentally mark them so you'll remember them in a pinch. Wal

Introduction about survival defense

It's going on all around us. There are hardworking citizens spending their hard-earned dollars to make fallout shelters out of their homes. These people are committed to learning survival skills as well as self-defense strategies and tactics. It has been estimated that we have over 3 million U.S. citizens who see themselves as 'preppers' and who are spending time, money, and physical labor on acquiring resources to be prepared for the worst.  All survivalists have their own unique ideas of how the impending apocalypse will reveal itself. What they all have in common is the belief that this event is just around the corner. Anyone who watches the news today cannot help but see some of what they see with all the hype and deep paranoia displayed on our TV sets.  Anyone can see how the weather itself seems to be blowing in doom and destruction. Tornadoes, earthquakes, and hurricanes are much more commonplace today than ever before in history. Then you have viruses and d

The ‘Fight or Flight’ Instinct

The goal of home prepping and learning bug-out survival techniques is to maintain a constant mental state of readiness. It gives you the ability to make use of every last resource at your disposal, mainly because you are now aware of it. You are not just reacting to the situation as someone caught unaware. In your mind you know your options and have strategies to employ. You are prepared to leave the normality of how your life has been because you planned ahead.  You are equipped with survival knowledge that will serve you well during this crisis situation. You know how to protect your home and family to the best of your ability. There are some attackers who will be very persistent. So you need as many defense options as possible.  While knowing about all your conventional weapons is a great advantage, there may be times when you will be forced into defending yourself without them. Hand to hand combat is something you want to always use only as a last resort. Learning basic se
