Episode 45 – Guns on a budget, Shoestring Survivalism

Guns on a budget.  Managing your own situations and protecting your family in today’s world cannot be neglected.  So as I say in the opening of this show…firearms help preserve your power of choice and options, to live a more secure life.  If you live in country firearms are prohibited, you can likely apply some of today’s show to acquiring non gun items for self defense.

I don’t do a lot of shows on guns, but it’s a necessary topic to address sometimes.

Highlights:

  • Practical ideas on firearms – non extreme
  • Acquiring firearms economically
  • Consider what you have on hand
  • Consider what you actually need
  • Consider what to get next?
  • Where to find budget guns
  • Where to get deals on ammo
  • What type of accessories and replacement parts do you need?
  • Holsters and slings

Episode 44 – Teach People How to Treat You and Survive

People Skills:  Necessary for success in anything you do. You teach people how to treat you and survive, means that it all comes back to you. It’s up to you to allow or not allow certain treatment. It also means that you have to first get clear about how you want to be treated. It means that you have to take responsibility enough to write your own owner’s manual so to speak. And you are accountable for living by your owner’s manual. Perhaps this might be the very first time we ever even gave this any thought?  Is this a survival topic?  Sure is, after any event, even a family tragedy or simple job loss, these people skills will apply.   Part 2 of how to deal with difficult people.

Highlights:

1.  Start by knowing what you want

2. Learn from your current situation

3. Honor it and practice it

4. Teach yourself how to treat you when that’s the only choice.

Some of these will apply to dealing with your employer and also I talk about the “law of attraction.”
