A SWOT Analysis is a simple, but useful method of really understanding your Strengths and Weaknesses. It will also help you identify Opportunities that you can exploit, and Threats that you might face in a survival situation.
Performing a SWOT Analysis on yourself and your capabilities is a great way to determine how prepared you really are.
A good place to start is to take an inventory of what you currently have. This can be everything from stockpiles of food and ammo to stockpiles of knowledge.
Analyzing your strengths will give you a good idea of what you’re capable of doing. It’s also a good way of discovering things that you may have never considered strengths, but could be extremely beneficial in a survival scenario.
WEAKNESSES
This is where you really have to be honest with yourself, but it’s also where you’ll get the most benefit out of this exercise. By honestly detailing your weaknesses, you can then better prepare to survive a crisis situation. Once you know what your weaknesses are, you can tweak your training to deal with them.
OPPORTUNITIES
When listing your opportunities, try to imagine what resources and opportunities are currently available to you, and what will be available when a disaster strikes. List the opportunities that you can take advantage of now, as well as those that will be important during a survival situation.
THREATS:
To truly be prepared, you need to have a realistic idea of what threats are out there and how likely it is that each threat could happen. By going through this exercise, you can better prepare yourself to face each one of these scenarios. You will know exactly what skills you need to work on, what plans you need to put in place, and what equipment you will most likely need.
THE NEXT STEP
The most important part of performing a SWOT Analysis is what you do with your findings. There is no point in performing one, unless you plan on taking action. Now that you have a good idea of your overall level of preparedness, you need to act on your findings and create a strategic plan of action.
