the survival journal guide to survival

Welcome to The Survival Journal, the premier survival and preparedness resource site for survivalists and preppers.

My name is Bill Steele, and I started The Survival Journal in 2016 with a single mission and goal in mind: to create survival guides and tutorials that not just seasoned preppers would benefit from, but also easy for beginners to understand. Not just how to survive in the wild, but how to financially prepare for the future as well.

Something that I wish I had when I was younger and full of confusion with so many conflicting advice and strategies.

Our mission is to restore survival skills and the preparation mindset that men have to seem to lost many decades ago

Who is The Survival Journal For?

The Survival Journal started out as a kernel of a resource for those new to preparedness, but I have a big vision for this site. We believe in providing resources and guidance to beginners, even to those who are just “curious” with taking a more proactive approach to seriously preparing for them and their families future survival, financially, physically, and mentally.

If you have ever asked yourself:

  • What can I do for self-defense and home security?
  • How would I survive ______ in the wild with nothing?
  • Which survival items should I have for _______?
  • How do I build a DIY survival ______?
  • What are the best survival skills to learn?
  • How should I financially prepare for the next economic collapse?
  • What are the checklists for different survival kits and a bug-out bag?

Or any other similar questions about survival and preparedness, then consider TSJ is your new homestead off the grid.
