If you are a fun of apocalyptic movies, you may have noticed that there are different ways the characters to survive their situation. Some ways help others survive more than others. In these article we will break down the manners of survival in an apocalyptic world.
There are different types of apocalypses; pandemics, nuclear apocalypse, technological failure, asteroid, alien, climate change and religious rapture. They all have the same methods of survival and different skills needed to survive.
Prep
Once you notice things going amiss, start stock piling. Gather foods with long shelf lives like rice, grains, honey, dried foods, salt, sugar, canned foods, dark chocolate, nuts and condiments. Ensure that you have a cool, dry and spacious place to store them. Collect survival equipment like radios, batteries and satellite phones. Remember to ensure you have enough medicine and first aid kits to survive.
Cardio
This should be the first rule of every situation. In order to survive you need to exercise (in case you have to run from zombies). Practice fitness in order to be prepared for any situation. Learn and practice self defense skills. Karate, boxing and muay Thai are the easiest to learn. They are also fun skills to have and share.
Read
Keep up-to-date on the news especially if there is already an apocalypse. You need to know if the situation is worse or better. Learn the skill of discernment. You will need it to distinguish between false and actual news. Read survival books. Read books on how to identify plants.
Practice self reliant hobbies such as painting, sewing, dancing, singing, cooking, knitting and wood working.
Create a community of people with different skills for exchange of abilities. Make sure you trust each other. Make sure to socialize to avoid deterioration of social skills.
Depending on the type of apocalypse, create water supply and sewage. And if you are rich enough you can just build a bunker. It easy to survive an apocalypse with the right skills, but more harder to survive the aftermath.
