In a railroad accident to a traveling menagerie in the United States some time in 1884, a tiger, whose cage had broken open, is said to have emerged, but presently crept back again, as if too much bewildered by his new responsibilities, so that he was with out difficulty secured.
The Principles of Psychology
Habit as Part of the Human Condition
In James' book he provides solid theories and supporting data from extensive research of human life and interactions regarding instincts, habits and the human condition. Nearly every point that he makes (in 1890) is totally relevent and useful when dealing with today's challenges and especially in understanding and helping people survive disasters and extreme situations.
Understanding how the human mind functions in relation to the perpensities, experiences, and habits acts as a master key to unlocking the potential of how people make decisions that are often negative for themselves. Such clues and insights allow us to help ourselves and others "course correct" and move in a better direction for our health, safety and happiness.
Routine is Survival
Create a Comfort Zone
Your goal should be to reestablish some type of routine (norm) as soon as possible. While creating a disaster survival plan you should note the things that you do in your routine everyday. I have found that it is the simple things that create a feeling of mental stability flowing over into your overall psyche. An example is if you start off you day with a cup of coffee, sit and watch the birds as you eat your breakfast, then include coffee, cups and other necessities to allow you to perform that morning ritual ASAP after bugging out.
