As a survivalist, you’re probably already aware that the current decade is not a good one. The economy is worse than it’s ever been. The world is more violent than ever. And the state of the world seems as chaotic as it has ever been.

But what if you don’t just think this decade is bad — what if you think it’s the worst one ever?

And what if you have an idea of what the next decade will look like?

If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place. In this article, you’ll learn everything you need to know about the next 10 years of life in the 21st century.

You’ll learn about the reasons why the next decade will be as bad as the current one. You’ll learn how to be prepared for it. And you’ll learn what steps you can take to help ensure a good future.

What Will the Next Decade Look Like?

If you think the current decade has been subpar, you’ll be happy to know that the next one is shaping up to be even worse. In fact, it’s hard to imagine a decade that’s worse than the one we’re currently in.

Here are the top reasons why the next decade will be a bad one:

Reasons for the Next Decade Being a Bad One

See the list above? There are quite a few reasons why the next decade will be a bad one. And as bad as the current one is, it’s hard to find a decade that’s been worse than this one.

The list of reasons why the next decade will be a bad one is so long that it feels like it would be more accurate if we just made a new list and called it a day. But we won’t. We’ve compiled a short list below of the main reasons why the next decade will be a bad one.

The list could go on and on. We could write a book about the reasons why the next decade will be a bad one. But we’ll resist the urge. You can find the rest of this article for reference. And if you want to learn more about the next decade and its bad news, we highly recommend you pick up a copy of The Coming Collapse.

How to Prepare for the Next Decade

As bad as the next decade is, there are things you can do to help make sure you survive it. And even if you’re not sure you want to spend the next 10 years in the woods, there are some things you can do to prepare now that will help you in the future.

Fortunately, the steps you need to take to prepare for this bad decade are not that complicated or time-consuming. In fact, they’re simple.

Here are the steps you need to take to prepare for this bad decade:

Get yourself a survival plan

If you want to survive the next decade, you need to have a plan. A survival plan is your blue print for success. It’s your guide for what you need to do to survive.

To survive the next decade, you need to have a strategy. And the best way to make sure you have a strategy is to have a plan. Having a plan will help you make sure you don’t end up in a bad situation without knowing how to get yourself out of it.

Get yourself a bugout plan

You can’t survive long without food and water. But you can survive for months without electricity. The key to making it through long-term power outages that are likely to occur as a result of natural disasters like earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis, is having a bugout plan.

For example, if an earthquake occurs in your area, you want to be able to get yourself to a safe location where you can wait out the earthquake. The best way to do this is to have a bugout plan.

Your bugout plan should include the places you’ll go, the things you’ll take, and the supplies you’ll need for each trip.

Learn a new skill

The best way to prepare for the next decade is to learn a new skill. Because even if the world is bad, there are always going to be opportunities to survive. And the best way to survive is to learn how to navigate the world.

As an outdoorsman, this may sound counterintuitive. After all, the world is a dangerous place. But in this case, the world is a dangerous place that’s filled with opportunities.

Learning how to navigate the world doesn’t mean you have to become a mountain guide or a commercial pilot. In fact, it can be as simple as learning how to turn on a light switch. Or how to use a coffee maker.

Learn how to get along with people who are different from you

The best way to survive in the next decade is to get along with people who are different from you. Because if you’re not learning from other people, you’re going to end up out in the wilderness all by yourself.

There are going to be a lot of bad things happening in the next decade. And the best way to survive them is to learn how to get along with people who are different from you.

In fact, the best way to start this practice is to figure out what makes you different from people in your community. And then, try to understand why other people don’t like those differences.

How can you try to understand why people have issues with certain things about you? Can you try to learn how to accept other people the way they are?

Learn how to protect yourself

In the next decade, there are going to be a lot of threats to your safety. And the best way to deal with those threats is to learn how to protect yourself.

Learning self-defense is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your loved ones. And there are a lot of ways to learn self-defense.

You can learn it from reading books and articles online. Or you can learn it from DVDs, videos, and classes.

Bottom Line

You’ve probably heard that the coming decade is a bad one. And with good reason — it’s shaping up to be very, very bad.

You can get yourself ready for this bad decade in a couple of ways. You can get yourself a survival plan and a bugout plan. You can also learn a new skill that will help you survive in bad times.

But the most important thing you can do is to get along with people who are different from you. Learn how to accept people for who they are, not for who you want them to be.

And lastly, learn how to protect yourself. Do whatever you can to keep yourself safe — even if the government isn’t doing much to keep you safe. And even if you don’t think it’s safe to keep yourself safe.

In the end, the best way to survive the next decade is to have a plan. And the best way to plan for this bad decade is to get yourself a survival plan.

But most importantly, learn how to get along with people who are different from you.
