What should a real man be able to do?

in life •  7 years ago 

We live in the most comfortable time in the history of mankind. The house is always warm and cozy, the tap water pours the right temperature, and in the nearest supermarket mountains a variety of food.

This is quite good, even very good. But what can we do if we suddenly find ourselves isolated from the benefits of civilization? Do we have the skills that will help us not only to save our own lives, but also to take care of our loved ones? What should a real man be able to do? The list compiled by us contains 14 major points. But you can help us expand it.

Subjects of the universal apocalypse always attracted attention, and we give a list of skills that every man should have. Which of these points can you already mark at home?

Perform a first aid. Accidents are not so rare as many think. And if there is a serious accident or catastrophe? Who can provide first aid to your loved ones? Maybe you?

Kindle a fire. Few people are able to light a fire even with matches and an abundance of dry firewood. It is not necessary to speak about more difficult conditions. But this is a skill that can warm or even save lives in a number of situations.

Skills of survival. Here you can combine much that will help to survive: to build a shelter, to find drinking water, to fish, to collect the right mushrooms and berries.

Grow vegetables. The ability to use the resources of the earth will help you survive and save your loved ones from hunger.

Can swim. The swimming skill is useful not only in the flood - you can save another person in trouble.

Repair the transport. Ability to change the tire and eliminate simple malfunctions is a necessary skill for everyone who can at least get behind the wheel.

Correctly dress. This includes not only the presence of taste, but also an understanding of what clothes are more appropriate in appearance and convenience for each particular event.

Social skills. The ability to get acquainted, communicate and establish connections with people will help to have support in difficult times.

Force. A man who can not lift his own weight, in a difficult time will not be an assistant, but a burden for the family.

To bargain. Ability to bargain will help in a time of crisis to get the necessary things at good prices, which will help to provide for yourself and your family.

Defend yourself. It is not enough to train a skill, destroying hundreds of monsters in front of a computer monitor. You need to be able to protect yourself and your loved ones in real life, given that there can be more than one attacker.

Tell stories. In the absence of light or the Internet your fascinating story will bring people closer to you.

Repair everything. It's strange, if a man constantly uses the services of a carpenter, carpenter, auto mechanic and plumber. After all, such a skill must have every self-respecting man.

Cook. To feed yourself is the most important and ancient skill. In ancient times, those who could not feed themselves, simply died of hunger. Now, when all stores are full of food, it is also necessary to cook to maintain a normal diet, and not to spoil the health of harmful food.
