Author: Creek Stewart, author of Survival Hacks!
Survival is not just a matter of skills, but also of mindset. You need to have the right knowledge, the right attitude, and the right creativity to survive in any situation. In this book, I will show you how to use common items in uncommon ways to meet your basic needs of shelter, water, fire, and food.
HOW TO THINK LIKE A SURVIVAL HACKER
Survival hacking is the art of using what you have to get what you need. It’s about finding new and clever ways to use everyday objects for survival purposes. Whether it’s a soda can, a plastic bottle, a pair of glasses, or a piece of clothing, there is always a way to turn it into something useful. All you need is some survival knowledge and some imagination.
HOW TO FIND AND USE SURVIVAL RESOURCES
Survival resources are everywhere, if you know how to look for them. They can be natural or manmade, organic or synthetic, big or small. Anything that can help you survive is a potential resource. In this book, I will teach you how to identify, collect, modify, and utilize hundreds of everyday items for wilderness survival.
HOW TO LEARN FROM TRIAL AND ERROR
Survival hacking is not an exact science. It’s a process of experimentation and discovery. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes it takes many tries to get it right. But that’s part of the fun and the challenge. In this book, I will share with you more than 200 survival hacks that I have personally tested and proven to work. Some of them took me more than 20 attempts to perfect. But I never gave up, and neither should you.
HOW TO PRACTICE AND SHARE SURVIVAL HACKS
Survival hacking is not only a skill, but also a hobby. It’s something you can do anytime, anywhere, with anyone. You can practice survival hacks in your backyard, in your garage, or on your camping trips. You can also share your survival hacks with your friends, family, students, and fellow survival enthusiasts. You can even send me your own survival hack ideas at creek@creekstewart.com. Maybe they will make it into the next volume of Survival Hacks.
