You see, knowledge is the most powerful survival tool you could ever possibly possess. A knife or a fire starter will do wonders in the wilderness, and a big stockpile will be a huge asset in case of an emergency situation, but
nothing will ever come close to helping you survive like the knowledge and skills you possess.
While we all already know this, we also simultaneously realize how difficult attaining knowledge can be. The learning curve can be steep, mastering skills often happens slowly, and the material we need to learn can feel confusing, broad and overwhelming. Sometimes, too, it can be hard to determine whether a source of information is even reliable enough to help us on our quest for valuable knowledge.
You might say "Eh, I can find everything I need to know online. I’ll just Google it.”
You’re right. Everything is on Google. Including all of the medicine books and all of the laws. But no one becomes a doctor or a lawyer by browsing Google. So why do you think you can gain the proper survival skills by doing the same??
You can find an insane amount of information online about how to prepare to bug out in a disaster or how to behave during an economic meltdown. Some of it’s good . . . but some of it’s wrong to the point of downright dangerous!
Do you really want to put your life and the lives of your family in the hands of an internet search engine? That's what we thought too...
You can browse endless blogs, bounce from one article to another, feeling lost, desperate and without any direction and guidence. Trying to pick some information here... and some there... like a lost child in a huge crowd of indifferent to you people..
