CliffsNotes For Survival

   In a survival situation there is a lot of things to do. There is a lot to think about. It can become overwhelming. Here are the first four things you should do if you find yourself in a survival situation. 
                   
Organize your thoughts   
A survival situation is not the time to panic. You are more likely to survive a difficult situation if you focus on maintaining a positive, proactive attitude. 

• Develop a plan. 
• Inventory the resources you have.
• Identify the critical tasks required for survival (water, shelter, warmth).
• Determination: It’s often the grip of the situation that separates a survivor from a non-survivor.
• Recognize feelings are not facts. You may feel hopeless, but keep your thoughts focused on the tasks that need to be accomplished.

Shelter
No matter where you are, rain and moisture are often your deadliest enemy. When you’re wet, it’s extremely difficult to stay warm. This is one of many reasons why it’s so important to make sure that your shelter is waterproof and dry. Elevating your bed. No matter what your environment is, you should always elevate your bed off the ground if you can. Not only is it an important part of staying dry, but there are bugs to worry about as well. Find coverage: If you’re lucky, you may be able to find natural coverage and protection from the rain. Large trees and caves can be a lifesaver if you don’t have the natural resources or time to build your own shelter.

Find water
Locating a source of water quickly is essential to survival in the wilderness. No matter the outside temperature, the human body is constantly losing water. Dehydration impacts mental and physical health, and it takes only a few days without water for the situation to become critical. Yet, water found in the wild can be dangerously contaminated, so it's important to purify it before you drink it.

Build a fire
You can build a fire fairly easily with the right materials and tools. Gather tinder, kindling, and fuel wood to start and maintain a warming fire. To keep things safe, remember to always build your fire at least 6 feet (1.8 m) away from your tent or shelter as well as low hanging trees. 

   There are many things you need to do! With these four things you will have a better chance to survive in any situation.
