TOP 3 URBAN SURVIVAL SKILLS YOU MUST HAVE
Manmade and natural disasters are inevitable, most especially in these modern times. Once you put this into consideration, you will the realize the importance of having the necessary skills to survive if and when you find yourself caught up in a life threatening situation, especially in the urban survival setting.
What is more, having these basic urban survival skills will set you head above shoulders of others and will give you the necessary advantage to make the best out of a dangerous situation, when the shit really hits the fan.
Three of the important urban survival skills that will be discussed in this post are:
Basic medical skills
Negotiating skills
Being constantly aware of your surroundings
Basic Medical Skills
You never know when how to treat a burn, sew up an open wound or use a splint may come handy. Most probably, these skills may be a lifesaver in the very near future. And the best part is that you don’t have to be a nurse or a doctor before you acquire some of these medical skills.
Having basic medical knowledge is an important urban survival skill. If you don’t already have them, you should take steps to learn them today.
Negotiating skills
You don’t have to be a hostage negotiator before you learn how to persuade people to do something for you, especially if your survival depends on it. Come to think of it, we engage in negotiations everyday of our lives and honing this skill is an added advantage for urban survival.
You never realize the importance of negotiation until you find yourself trying to exchange a few physical items that you have on you for a warm meal, after walking for a few miles. Being able to negotiate and convince someone to perform a service for you, especially in the event of a disaster is an important quality to possess.
Be always aware of your surroundings
Being constantly aware of your surroundings is a quality that should be developed and nurtured. This could be a life saver especially in crowded areas. For example, after entering a building, you should try and locate emergency exits in the event of a fire.
Also, being constantly watchful and aware of your surroundings may give you early warning signals about an impending attack from an assailant, thereby giving you enough time to prepare for defensive and evasive actions if necessary.
These three urban survival skills are by all means not exhaustive but having them will improve your chances surviving potentially unsafe and dangerous situations.

Survival Shelter
Almost every survival guide makes a point to explain the importance of shelter. In times of unrest and disaster, you need that one place that will now become your sanctuary. But when your mind is in distress and basic resources are scarce, how do you pull through to put up a shelter. Well, it is advisable to use whatever is around you to create something suitable that could help you stay safe as you crack your head for an ultimate survival plan. Here are some reasons as to why you should prioritize or at least include shelter in your survival plan.
Protects you from weather elements
Whatever climate you are in, shelter is vital for your survival. When in a hot climate, heat stroke, sun burn and dehydration may be your biggest concerns and therefore you will require something to protect you and minimise these effects. In low temperatures your concern may be hypothermia or frost bite and thus you require a structure to help you stay warm. Again, in wet conditions you will want to remain dry and warm. All these weather effects could have serious consequences on one’s health and thus pose a threat to their survival. Therefore it is important to make all these considerations as you build a survival shelter. The more suitable a structure is the higher your chances of survival.
Keeps you out of the enemy’s line of observation
Lying in the open exposes you to the enemy’s sight. Since most survival structures are built from simple and readily available materials, they are sometimes difficult to point out and could camouflage you from the enemy.
Protects you from predators
While away from the comfort of your home and any form of civilisation, you are exposed to numerous wild and dangerous predators. These could be poisonous insects, reptiles and other dangerous mammals. With a basic structure you could keep away lots of predators that would otherwise be a threat to your survival.
Gives you a sense of well-being
Your mental state is extremely important as you struggle to pull through survival. Survival experts agree that the mental attitude of a person in a time of crisis greatly determines their chances of survival. Survival thus starts in your mind, if you put up an enduring attitude your chances are heightened while if you adopt a hopeless attitude you are doomed to perish. Having shelter acts a boost to your state of mind. It gives you hope and a sense of accomplishment and also lessens your worries. You are then able to settle down and figure your next survival step.
There are various shelter options to go for depending on the materials available and the climate. But keep in mind that is a survival structure and just needs to be basic and nothing fancy. Building a complex shelter may take a lot of time which would have otherwise been used to boost your survival plan. Again, you are not sure of how long you will be there and you may end up not even finish building it. Generally, shelter is essential in your physical and mental well being.
