Winning dangerous encounters isn't simply about winning the initial battle, although without that victory the other battles are moot. Much of the training that exists, and toward which the majority of the training resources are directed, focus on physical survival. There are, however, six other equally vital battles that must be won. In the 1940's Abraham Maslow, one of the founders of humanistic psychology, posited that human beings employ a hierarchy when it comes to fulfilling their needs. The precondition for fulfilling higher-order needs is that lower-order, more basic needs must be met first. The Seven Survivals parallels Maslow's Heirarchy in content, but when it comes to recovering from the effects of use of force encounters, many of these other battles need to be won before any physical battle. Some must be won following the physical encounter. In that regard, the Seven Survivals are more like a continuum than a heirarchy. To ignore these needs is akin to creating what Lt. Col. Dave Grossman calls "one shot disposable cops" in his book On Combat. This forum discusses those other Survivals and provides insight and discussion on how to ensure total victory. It also details various case studies where the other survivals had not been considered or were not won, and the catastrophic consequences that resulted. The Seven Survivals are Physical, Psychological/Emotional, Legal, Financial, Professional, Social and Spiritual. Since each of the Seven Survivals has its own forum, the general forum is closed to posts. Please use the subforums under this heading to post your discussions.
