Today we are going to discuss two mental states.  Situational awareness is a highly desirable state that leads to fast and effective decision making.  In spite of that many people pay little mind to being situationally aware.   Conversely normalcy bias is almost the complete opposite of situational awareness and often leads people to delay important decisions including taking not action at all even in situations that are clearly life threatening.

Join me today as we discuss…

  • What is situational awareness
  • What is normalcy bias
  • How can you improve your awareness
  • Why is it a “survival topic”
  • How do these concepts apply to news, the economy, politics
  • Planning on the fly, what is it, why do it
  • The need to protect other which is sometimes self serving as well
  • What is a threat assessment, how do you do one in seconds
  • The role of situational awareness in your lifestyle and survival planning
