Here’s a quick lesson – – – – > The OODA loop is a decision-making tool that helps people in rapidly developing situations make decisions quickly and effectively. OODA stands for Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act.
1. Observe: First, look at what’s happening around you.
2. Orient: Next, figure out what all the things you observed mean. You must try to understand the situation based on what you observed.
3. Decide: Once it’s understood what’s going on, make a choice about what to do. Decide on a plan of action.
4. Act: Do what you have decided to do. Take action based on your decision.
Then, it goes in a loop. After you act, you go back to observing because things might have changed. It helps you keep adapting and making good decisions in fast situations.
The OODA Loop is a decision-making tool for survival.
Welcome to A Survival Story. What follows is a fictional daily journal written by "Jed". Jed is a 39-year-old man who lives in the small city of Rock Hill, South Carolina. Jed recently started thinking about his life and the mistakes he has made. He has decided to start keeping a journal to organize his thoughts and try to understand not only where he has been but where his life is going. Jed begins this journal at a time in his life when he is considering whether he will ever meet "the one" and has just scheduled a trip to attend his 20-year high school reunion.
Jed is relatively physically fit as he has been working out with weights, takes martial arts, and rides his mountain bike periodically on some light trails. He would like to lose about 15-20 pounds but is not overly concerned about it. Jed is 5' 10" tall and 205 pounds with very short brown hair. Both his parents have passed and his younger brother Eric moved in with him a couple months ago. Jed has always felt the need to care for his brother since his parents are no longer around. He has been an active survivalist for the last several years - especially since 9/11. He has stocked up on a lot of supplies with an emphasis on the basics of "beans, bullets, and band-aids". The few people that know of Jed's concern for the future dismiss his "prepping" as a hobby and a fad. Jed takes it seriously, however, he is not fanatical about it and enjoys many of life's comforts like anyone else. Jed recently purchased a 2011 black Jeep Wrangler 4-door - a rare splurge for himself.
See how Jed and his community deal with multiple attacks across the United States. Here we begin....... a survival story.
