There comes a time when every prepper will say enough with all of the food and enough with all of the gear. After a year or more of seeking out the best stuff at the best price you just might want to stop – at least for awhile – and focus on something else.
1. Interpersonal Skills
Interpersonal skills are sometimes referred to as people skills, social skills or communication skills. But regardless of what you call it, interpersonal skills will dictate your ability to work with others in a positive and productive manner. By getting along with others, you will be able to build good community relationships and will become known as a responsible and honest person who can be trusted.
Having strong interpersonal or social skills will be invaluable when it comes to bartering for goods or services or for controlling a potentially deadly situation with reason instead of force.
2. Problem Solving
The ability to think on your feet is going to be critical following a disaster or collapse. In practical terms, this means that you will need to very quickly evaluate a situation and come up with the best possible coping strategy for surviving under dire if not incomprehensible circumstances. You will need the ability to assess the risks you face and to act accordingly.
