A – Actions

A – Actions: Decisive yet prudent actions. Indecisiveness can be a huge risk to survival, for example waiting too long to bug out in the face of an oncoming hurricane. Actions made too hastily without some shape or form of prudent decision-making can lead to catastrophe, but following this process will help ensure proper planning to prevent piss poor performance.

Procedures are the method we invoke action and are closely tied together. You and your family must have and know procedures to execute and act to survive in any event.
