Survival Life Is Hard: (Unedited): 01-23 Dec 2022:

 
Survival is hard. Survival is not of your choosing. Survival sucks. Survival is not a long term camping trip. Survival will be especially hard if your are not trained in the environment which you are sudden thrust into. It doesn't matter if it is homelessness, prison, the wilderness of any kind, war, societal unrest, economic downturns, extreme weather events or even when the SHTF.
So are the modes of life? I see three modes of life as related to a survival mentality. The survival mentality is the middle of the road. Where as the existence mentality is where you have given up and are just waiting for death. Then there s the preferred mentality and that is a thriving mentality. Most people who live in the western modern world live in the thriving mentality. But, of course there are those who are simply surviving and then are those who simply exist and do not care if they live or die. I've seen this in many other people and in my own self as I once had the simple existence mindset. 
---Existence Mind Set----
The existence mind set is where you just do not care anymore. This does mean they you also do not care to live anymore. But, this is just a step above suicidal. You need to know that a person who is suicidal can also have or had a thriving mindset and a survival mindset. I've seen suicidal people in all of life's categories. This is not about suicide but it can be. Many people think that a simple existence mind set means that a person is huddled in some dark corner just wasting away and that can be very true. But, there are other existence mind sets as well. Like when a person chooses to do things on purpose which can end up killing themselves. Especially, if there is a short term exhilarating thrill behind the action. This can be a sign of an existence mind set. A person who makes no plans, no goals and has no meaningful dreams or any hopes for any kind of accomplishment. A person with a simple existence mind set has no intention of bettering themselves in any way. This is to the absolute confusion of someone who is in the thriving mindset. A person who is also in the existence may be a heroic person who is excessively willing to risk their own life in order to save anyone and everyone at any opportunity. Oh? so, you say, Just wait a minute, They are heroes!?!? and I say, to you, yes, they are. But, even heroes suffer as well. Think about a cop? any cop? Especially, a cop with 5-10 years of experience. The human cops go out into the ugly and awful world every single day, on purpose and all these human cops know throughout there entire work day which can last 12 hours is the worst that humanity has to offer them. It is easy for a human cop to lose faith in humanity and to see that humanity is getting worse and worse. Prophetically and actuality this may be very true. In which that may or may not be the case. But, when all of your professional memories is only of the bad and sad. Think about it how easy it is so simply slide into a simple existing mindset even if your a heroic cop who must hold onto all of those daily accrued awful memories in which you may never forget them. That is until, you start going to the store in uniform and in your cop car to buy beer and then put that beer into the trunk of your cop car. Then when you as a cop have given up on your own family. That is a bad sign. Maybe, you the cop/soldier are protecting them from you and your memories in which you cannot even tell them about. Then when you as a cop wake up in a mental haze of any kind and you go off to work with all manner of apathy but you become a robot who will enforce the law without any mercy or compassion. You know something? This isn't just about the cops or Citizens Of Peace. This is also about soldiers and other heroes. Who have to do bad awful things or witness bad awful things everyday and keep all of those bad and awful memories from all civilians. Heroes do this for you every single day. Then you who are kept safe from the ugliness of evil people do not see it or experience any of it and guess what that is how it is supposed to be. So that you civilian can go on with your life free from the memories of what the genuine heroes hold onto. 
---Survival Mindset---
Having the survival mindset is one where you know that you and those whom you care about can die at any time or during the very next emergency event or even in the very next accident. What ever that may be. You may not be able to prevent the next emergency event but you can do everything possible to mitigate the next emergency events before anyone of them happen. The healthy survival mindset means that you make those necessary preparations during those good times and hope that the bad times do not happen. The healthy survival mindset does mean that you endeavor to achieve a thriving lifestyle and mindset. That you achieve those other functional purposeful and evolving mindsets as which is defined by you and your own natural skill sets. 
There is a draw back to the survival mindset. The survival mindset can become fear driven. The survival mindset can become a weapon of abuse. The survival mindset can be evidence of historical abuse to an individual person. The survival mindset should not be a permanent fixture in your mind and in your relationships. The survival mindset can be a thief to you obtaining real joy, peace, happiness and comfort.
---Thriving Mindset---
 The thriving mindset is where each person should reside in. This is where each person, family, church and community are living their own self defined lives with the lives that hopefully they each have right now. The thriving lifestyle is where you have the choices and freedoms to do whatever you want so as long as you do not on purpose or by accident cause anyone any kind of harm or suffering. You living your thriving lifestyle without and unnecessary fears and anxieties. 
Think about this. What are the odds of you becoming a victim every time you leave from the apparent comforts and safety of your home? If it is very minimal then you are existing in a thriving society. Yes, I do know that there are places in any thriving society in which you must have the survival mindset. Those people who live in those unfortunate places may be forced to live with either the survival mindset or the existence mindset. While the threat of being harmed in some way if they even dare to try to obtain any other positive mindset.
---Functional Mindset---
 The functional mindset is actually made up of many different functional categories. Such as agriculture, medicine, mechanics, animal care, carpentry, electricity, welding, plumbing, organization, logistics planning, strategic planning, civil engineering and etc. This list can go on forever. This list includes ancient skill sets as well as skill sets needed for today and into the evolving future of development. 
This functional mindset is where you have obtained one or more skill sets and you have achieved a level of professional skill. The more of these functional skill sets a person has in relation to survival. The greater their chances of survival. The more of these functional skill sets any church or community has in their accepted members. The greater the chances of that church and community of survival. The greater a person, church or community has in modern day functional skill sets the greater they each are likely to thrive in a thriving society.
---Purposeful Mindset---
The purposeful and meaningful mindset is also one which should be thought about. Because, without purpose and meaning in your life. The life you freely choose to have can become empty, unimportant, meaningless, aimless and many other negative words which can lead to a depressive state of being. 
So begin to freely choose to have the mindset of being able to do for others and purposely put yourself into a position of being in the right places where you can actually do for others. All without stoking your pride, ego, sense of supremacy and air self importance. Do for other people in secret. Do for people who are in genuine need all without gratitude, award, rewards, credit, acknowledgements or any other method that defines you as the original source. When you can achieve this level of actual beneficial giving of time and energies. You will be rewarding with a form of joy which cannot be achieved, gotten or had in any other way. The knowing that you have purpose is very crucial in a healthy created environment. The knowing that what you actually do has profound meaning for other people. Is crucially important for the maintenance of the whole community. Then when you quietly and humbly teach the things that you do in secret. You perpetuate a developing sense of purpose and meaning to other people who can go out and do without bringing any attention to themselves. 
---Evolving Mindset--- 
The evolving mindset is one which is always seeking out the better way. The evolving mindset is always trying to positively better themselves, their church and community in a variety of ways and methods. The evolving mindset does not forget about any other mindset and is just a forward thinking mindset. The positive evolution of all aspects of a life worth living. While at the same time positively evolving all aspects in how to prevent and mitigate all unfortunate surprises and emergency events which may or may not happen.

So what other mindsets should a person, church or community have that leads to all of the good and positive words in life?

Added on 25 Dec 2022: For you genuine Christians. Who controls the world or the systems of the world?
Because, it is he who wants all of humanity to perish. he does not want any of his enemies to prepare for anything. he wants all of humanity to die and become extinct. So, any content which is directly against you preparing and surviving or leads you to decide that you/we do not need to prepare for anything. Is a deception for you. Because, if you do not prepare for any emergency event no matter how awful it may be. Then you will most likely die in any extreme emergency event. If you take personal responsibility for your own safety and well being then the real powerful evil doers of the world cannot use your victimization to further their design and perpetuation of chaos, hatred, violence, conflict, wars and everything else which is negative.
