The Eight Pillars of Survival Many survival and emergency
preparedness experts today use the pyramid approach to survival
prioritization, putting food, water, shelter and security in the
largest block at the base of the pyramid and then community,
sustainability and higher needs in smaller brackets at the top of
the pyramid. My survival model takes a different and linear
approach to survival using an eight-pillar system. The eight
pillars that I use as the basis of my survival methodology are
food, water, shelter, security, communication, health, survival
navigation and fire-craft. In my system no one pillar takes
priority to another initially. It is up to the survivor to assess
their situation and then choose the pillar that is needed most to
survive in the situation at hand. Much like a rifle pop-up target
range where a shooter is expected to hit the closer (more
dangerous) 50-meter target first before engaging the 300-meter
target, the survivor needs to prioritize the pillars and choose the
pillar that is most urgent and necessary to save his life under the
circumstances. The foundation for my methodology is KISS which
stands for “keep it simple, stupid”, an acronym widely used by
the military to remind soldiers that the best solutions are often
the simplest. I developed this 8 Pilar approach over decades of
serving as a Green Beret in the US Army Special Forces
