Don't Panic



"Get over it": Most survivors don't waste a lot of time lamenting mistakes and losses. They move on and deal with the situation, ungampered by paralyzing regrets and disappointments.

Intuition: At some point in our lives, we have all had demonstrations of the power of intuition. The rational mind makes decisions based on the availavle information, which is always imperfect at best. Intuition appears to give us the ability to move beyond the limits of time and space, to "see around corners" that the rational mind can't breach.

Stayin cool: Survivors have the ability to stay calm, or regain calmness, so they can think clearly and intuitively "feel" their way to a coorect choice, without being hampered by emotions that have run amok.

Flexibility: The number-one trrait to which many survivors attribute their succes is the ability to adapt to the situation.
