You require food, water, and shelter to survive. You can survive a month without food, about 3 days without water, but the weather can kill you in hours, even minutes.

Living through the end to see it come back!! I want to see the new start!

Doing whatever it takes to stay alive......but not just tactically, but strategically too.

Winners never quit. Quitters never win.

People don't plan to fail.......but most fail to plan.

Most failure occurs inside people's heads.

Phases=== 1) Daily Existence, Hand to mouth daily efforts. no stored supplies. 2) Temporary existence, small amount of stored supplies. good for a limited time. 3) Productive existence, stored supplies and the ability to grow / replenish supplies. 4) Comfortable Existence, Excess production, ability to barter / sell excess.

Anybody in phase 1, is not a prepper and will not survive very long. Most preppers will fall into phase 2 and 3. Very few preppers will fall into phase 4. JMHO

Survival= not dying.
