Clean

Comfort

Let’s be honest we have all heard of this and in one way or another will hear or read on this again.

Basically each stands for something your kit should have. Call it the basic guidelines for making all your kits. Some are metaphoric for example, candle light simply meaning a light source such as a headlamp, flashlight and yes candle.

What I really want to talk about is clean and comfort.

I added those because, women, we all know what happens every month, some of us have it worse than others but we can all agree it sucks. Just imagine how much it would suck more if you are in a survival situation. Trust me men, you can stab yourself in the arm and still not touch the pain and discomfort women have to go through. Of course is not the end of the world (maybe). But it pays to be prepared and have methods for long term use just in case for example cotton rags you can wash and reuse. Men should also pack some of this stuff as they are great for first aid as well as helping a woman in need.

Now for comfort.

Personally I would and could carry 100 lbs of load if it meant I am completely covered comfort included. Like I always tell my cadets “if I could carry a bed I would, if it made sense to bring a sleeping bag I would but for now I settle on blanket on the floor so long as I am warm I am good.” I know I know what do I know about cold sleepless nights. Absolutely nothing. I could sleep on cold tiles during a hurricane and still be comfortable so long as my skin isn’t irritated. I usually wear a lot of clothes(not literally as in an extra layer). What I mean is that I am unique in that I can wear a winter jacket and walk up a hill without sweating. My body does a great job at regulating my body temperature so all I do is move my uniform use it as a blanket and night world. All of you who can’t sleep with clothes on can probably relate. The main point is comfort, whatever you need to comfortable bring it. Especially sleep. Because sleep is a beautiful thing indeed.

Knowledge is Key

Ok, so let’s talk essential rules that you should be aware of. At the end of this little series I will be sharing my personal rule that I follow in life. Well one of the many I follow. A little disclaimer some of these rules, I have modified for my own benefit due to where I live and what gear is available which by the way is minuscule at best.

We will also be going over the motivation that you should have in order to be successful in whatever you do.

So the first order of business. Here is a Youtuber you should check out.

This guy basically reviews products and shows you different skills. I personally like his kit videos because of how clear and concise they are. There is no guessing of can I do this or will this works. He lays out the cards, shows you how to assemble it and then a few customization's and viola you understood the process and can now do it yourself.  The only downside is that many of his gear reviews are on pricey stuff and some of the things he uses simple are not as available as he makes it seem. For example cliff bars. You’re all looking at me like just go to your super market and I’m like dude… already tried that. Anyways moving on….
