A Digest of Urban
Survival Resources
In this World, there are different kinds of
enemies.
Darth
Vader was hell-bent on destroying humanity and enticing innocents to the
"dark side."
Produce
manufacturers are haunted not only by their direct competitors, but also by the
giant salty snack conglomerates that are purveyors of instant gratification but
lack nutritional value.
Kids in
troubled urban areas with failing schools face the enemy of illiteracy.
On your
path, you will inevitably encounter enemy forces.
Sometimes,
however, the real enemy is not who you think and not so easy to identify. It's
easy to blame others, play the victim card, and throw our hands up in helpless
despair. While tempting, it doesn't get you off the hook for taking personal
responsibility for the outcomes you seek.
The
biggest enemies we face may not be others, but internal enemies such as fear,
impatience, greed, laziness, and distraction.
Enemies
generally fall into four categories, which we’ll discuss today.
The
first and most obvious kinds of enemies are your fellow humans. They may be the
CEO of your big competitor, your arch rival in sports, a gun-wielding maniac,
or an abusive spouse (just to name a few!). Human enemies are the people who
create the biggest roadblocks to your survival and progress.
The
second kind of enemy is the organization. This includes but is not limited to
the regulatory bodies that withhold approvals, competitive companies or teams,
and lobbying groups peddling legislation that could hamper you.
While
human enemies may be the easiest to identify, the third and most common kinds
of enemies are internal factors. These enemies are the most difficult to
identify and conquer. Your mindset on tenacity, learning, growth, courage, and
commitment fall into this category.
The
fourth enemy is natural forces. Think the 26.2 miles of road during your
marathon attempt, the pollution you seek to eliminate, the cancer cells you're
driven to vaporize, the threat of nuclear war. Humans have worked to assert
their will over nature since the beginning of time.
Even if
these enemies feel overwhelming, creative solutions can be uncovered to conquer
nearly any opponent (think David vs. Goliath).
Don't
let your enemies lurk in the dark. Instead, bring them into the bright sunlight
by identifying, examining, and exposing them.
Use
these negative forces to get fired up and strengthen your resolve. Nothing
makes you want to win more than knowing someone is waiting for you to fail, so
make it your mission to prove them wrong. Every small victory along the way
will build your confidence and focus.

When you think of items that might
be useful in an emergency situation, nail polish is probably one of the last
items to come to mind. However, one important survival skill is the ability to
repurpose seemingly useless products into something useful.
With that in mind, it turns out there
are a number of uses for nail polish that could be quite valuable in a survival
scenario. In the video below, Sensible Prepper came up with 10 survival uses
for nail polish. Here they are...
1. Waterproofing Matches - Matches are
an incredibly important survival tool, but they are worthless if they get wet.
A little nail polish applied to the head of a match can make the match
completely waterproof...

There's an uber-leftist newsletter published out of Lansing, MI called Michigan Advance. Yesterday they were drooling over the fact a few small groups of anti-Trumpers were going to demonstrate in favor of impeachment. Lots of stupid socialist types in MI [where's my free obamaphone?] who are unable to reason for themselves & blindly suck of the Dem-Socialist Kool-Aid...On the other side however, plenty of voters showed up at a newly elected Slotkin speech to ridicule her support for impeachment. She's a former CIA analyst who must not have good at her job if she can't even see how dumb this charade is.
As far as I'm concerned, the Socialist-Democrats are the primary enemy to our freedom & wealth; they are now the party of hate.
