I - Improvise

In the United States, we have items available for all our needs. Many of these items are cheap to replace when
damaged. Our easy come, easy go, easy-to-replace culture makes it unnecessary for us to improvise.
This inexperience in improvisation can be an enemy in a survival situation. Learn to improvise.
Take a tool designed for a specific purpose and see how many other uses you can make of it.

Learn to use natural objects around you for different needs. An example is using a rock for a hammer.
No matter how complete a survival kit you have with you, it will run out or wear out after a while.
Your imagination must take over when your kit wears out.

The idea that first enters most people's minds is to head to the nearest mercantile epicenter and grab the fanciest gear, complete with bells and whistles. Your basic rifle, for example, has a wide variety of uses. The stock provides a great striking point. The lenses of a scope can be used for firestarting, signaling, and scouting. Spend some time examining the gear you have on hand, and you may come to rely on it more for it's unconventional uses. Even the old survivor standbys like an ordinary rifle.
