Do you know how to navigate the area? How to follow the set course and NOT LOSE your way, no matter where you are. Helpful Hints travelers.

A person who does not know how to follow a given course is doomed to walking in a circle. This is explained not by his stupidity, but by the fact that the left step of a person is 0.1-0.4 cm longer than the right one, and, walking, in his opinion, straight, the traveler deviates more and more to the right, sooner or later returning to the starting point of his route . So he will wander around the perimeter of a circle with a diameter of 3.5 km, not approaching anywhere, until he learns to withstand given direction.

How to avoid running in circles

In Venice, in St. Mark, such an experience was made. People were blindfolded, placed at a distance of 175 meters opposite the cathedral and offered to walk to its 82-meter-wide facade. Everyone who was subjected to this test deviated in different directions from the straight line and did not reach the cathedral. So that.

By the way, such "circular" wanderings in nature happen quite often, giving rise to numerous mystical stories and stories that someone once could not get off one enchanted place... On this occasion, there is even a saying - "the goblin twists." And it’s not the goblin that twists, the asymmetry of the lower extremities and the lack of elementary skills of “upright walking” twists.

The easiest way to avoid running in circles is for those who have a compass. This is achieved in the following way. When the direction of movement is determined using a map or an impromptu plan of the area, it is necessary to bring the compass located closer to the eyes, turn the compass around its axis to align the northern end of the arrow with the zero mark on the scale and, by rotating, set the sighting ring near the numbers on the scale indicating the course. Then, observing the terrain through the combined rear sight and front sight, notice some landmark in the direction of movement - a rock, a separate tree, etc.

In a homemade compass, where there is no sighting ring, the front sight and rear sight can be made by sticking two thin branches into the bark on opposite sides of the scale. In some cases, to facilitate orientation, the missing degree scale can be replaced by a watch dial. To do this, the number "12" should be taken as 0 °. Then every hour will be equal to 30°. In this case, six hours will correspond to the south, three to the east, nine to the west.

The distance to the landmark can be different and is dictated by the conditions of the area. If the landmark is located within the line of sight, then its distance can be increased to 2-3 km, and in exceptional cases even more. If you have to move in the wilderness or in conditions of limited visibility, then the distance to the landmark should be reduced to hundreds or even tens of meters.

It is believed that even in the most favorable conditions when driving blindly (that is, only on the compass), the error can reach 5 °. This gives a deviation from the selected direction up to 1/10 of the distance traveled. This means that if a person has walked 1 km, the deviation may be 100 m. And then the taken landmark will have to be searched for within a radius of 200 m (100 m in each direction from the landmark).

If we neglect the binding to the landmark and continue to move only according to the compass readings, then after 10 km the deviation can be already 1 km. And this is only with an “ideal” five-degree deviation from the set course! In practice, such errors, as a rule, are much more significant.

That is why in an emergency one should strive to choose landmarks that are visible from one another. In order to maintain the course more accurately, it is desirable to notice in the direction of movement two landmarks located in the same plane and remote from each other.

In motion, you need to constantly keep them in sight, combining, like a rear sight and a front sight. In this case, the course line will be the most direct. If you have to overcome a section of closed terrain before the landmark, you can use the so-called azimuth lead technique, that is, deliberately deviate to the right or left from the given direction by 8-10 ° and turn right when you reach the landmark, if the slope was chosen left, and vice versa - to the left if the slope was right.

With the monotony of the landscape, in the absence of landmarks on the way (for example, in the steppe, desert, on flat ice fields, etc.), you can maintain a given direction along a chain of walking people, according to their footprints, along a ski track, or by “fixing” the path.

When a group moves, the movement is controlled by the person opening the marching column and closing it. The former paves the way according to the compass, the latter, again with the help of the compass, corrects it, since when moving behind it is easy to compare the course line with the line of the moving column, it is easy to notice even the most insignificant deviations and errors.

If the group is small, it is advisable to stretch it slightly in safe areas, increasing the intervals between people. For the same purpose, in small groups, you can send a navigator forward with a compass, correct his path, catch up with him and send him forward again to lay the next section of the path.

When skiing, you can check the course using the resection method, controlling the direction along the path already traveled, that is, mentally continuing the straight line of the ski track left behind and checking it with the compass data. In summer, for the same purpose, you can mark your route, leaving behind pegs driven into the ground, branches and other noticeable landmarks, by which, looking back, you can check the course. This method is called "fixing" the path. There are other instrumental ways of maintaining the direction described in detail in the special tourist literature.

Complicate the task of the victims encountered on the way insurmountable obstacles - lakes, swamps, impenetrable blockages and thickets.

If the terrain is open, then on the opposite side of the obstacle, a noticeable landmark is seen standing on the course line. Now it is enough to reach it bypassing the obstacle and, taking the azimuth to the next landmark, continue the path.

An obstacle encountered on the way through a closed area should be bypassed “blindly”, using a compass. To do this, you need to take a course perpendicular to the previously chosen one, and go some distance, while counting the steps. When the distance traveled is sufficient to bypass the obstacle, it is necessary to return to the previous course.

Continuing the count of steps, walk a distance approximately equal to the length of the obstacle, again make a 90 ° turn, but in the other direction, that is, to the obstacle, and go the distance equal to the previously calculated one. As a result, the person will again be on the route thread, but already on the other side of the obstacle.

If a person missed and turned earlier than he should have, having stumbled upon an obstacle, repeat the maneuver, that is, turn 90 ° or go back to the last turning point and continue on his way. In order not to go astray in counting steps and turns, it is advisable to draw a small plan on the go, where to indicate the distance and turns.

It is much more difficult for those in distress in the absence of a compass. In this case, the course keeping accuracy will not exceed several tens of degrees. But it also makes sense to fight for them.

If a person walks at random, without controlling his movement, he will inevitably deviate more and more from the set course and, gradually closing the circle, will follow his own tracks. This is explained, as I already mentioned, by the asymmetry of the lower extremities in humans, simply speaking, different leg lengths. Hence, the step size of the left and right legs is also different. Although it seems to a person that he is going absolutely straight, in fact, he often describes a smooth arc to the right side, turning into a vicious circle.

Therefore, in the absence of a compass, having determined the cardinal points by the sun or local signs, it is necessary to pay attention to the direction of movement of the clouds or remember which cheek the wind is blowing, of course, if the weather is stable. A change in the direction of the wind or the movement of clouds in the sky signals that a person has lost his course.

To make it easier to follow the movement, the one behind must control the direction of the group, correcting the “yaws” in one direction or another. For the same purpose, all small obstacles encountered on the way - trees, bushes, blockages, etc. - must be bypassed alternately from the right, then from the left side.

You can control the direction of your movement by the sun, stars, moon. In confirmation, I will cite a small dialogue from the book of the writer A. Sosunov.

“No, really, how do you keep the right path? After all, there are no milestones, no conspicuous trees. And you don't use a compass!

- What about the sun? Remember, as you leave our taiga to the swamp, then keep the sun between your right ear and nose until noon, and from lunch it should be strictly to the right. You just guess."

The easiest way to use a solar or lunar "compass" is by looking at the angle between a given course and the shadow cast by trees, bushes, or the person himself. It should be remembered that the celestial bodies (except for the North Star) are shifted every hour by 15 °. From here, every hour you need to change your course by 15 °. If this is not done, then, following the sun or moon, you can deviate from the original route by 180 °.

To determine the amount by which you should correct the course, you need to stretch your hand straight in front of you and spread your thumb and forefinger at a right angle. The distance between them will be exactly 15 °.

If you stretch out your hand and raise your thumb, then its width will be about 2 °, and the raised little finger on the outstretched hand corresponds in width to about 1 °. The fist of an outstretched hand will pull about 10 °. (see picture 1)

In some cases (in the desert, tundra, on ice) it is possible to maintain a direction along sastrugi and dunes, more precisely, along the angle between the chosen course and their plane. Dunes and sastrugi are swept by the wind and therefore have a repeatable shape, their rows are parallel to each other.

The same assistance to the victims can be provided by "flag" trees growing in open spaces. Their inclination in one direction or another, the configuration of the crown - on the one hand, dense, lush, elongated, on the other, very meager, sometimes completely absent - are determined by the direction of the prevailing winds. Hence the appearance of "flag" trees - a constant value, repeating from tree to tree for tens of kilometers. published.

All people from time to time set themselves the goal of changing something in their lives. As a rule, grandiose plans are made at the end of the outgoing year, before the next birthday or after some serious shock. But, unfortunately, not everyone manages to keep the promises made to themselves. Why is this happening? How to avoid it?

Brain inertia

Quit smoking, learn English, start your own business, go in for sports - these and many other goals are set by different people. And they do not just formulate them, but firmly believe in the need for change and vow not to deviate from their plans. But after a sincere feeling that the time has come to take the first step, the thought comes: is it necessary to spend your time and effort on this, because you can live like this.

Experts say that human brain programmed to repeat, that is, it tends to perform the same actions. However, gray matter has another property - plasticity, but in order for it to work, the brain needs six to ten months of work in a certain direction.

Most psychologists believe that a person is able to change his life for the better. True, it is not as easy as it seems. The inertia of the brain interferes with the implementation of the plan. But creativity and the desire to learn something new help. Moreover, experts advise starting knowledge with ourselves. That is, first of all, it is worth understanding your needs and desires. This will help determine the right motives for the implementation of plans and remove obstacles.

Good start

Psychologists recommend making plans in writing. At the same time, it is important to detail the strategic goal, breaking it down into smaller tasks. The written execution of the action program will allow you to refresh it at the right time, as well as evaluate its prospects.

It is best to present the plan in the form of a table with the following columns: "Circumstances", "Thoughts", "Feelings", "Problems", "Solutions". Thanks to this division, it will be possible to systematize all the difficulties that arise on the way to achieving the goal. When filling in the last column, concerning the solution of pressing problems, it is advisable to look for new ways and look at the situation from an unusual angle, that is, to challenge yourself.

Don't back down

No matter what dream a person tries to fulfill, it will be difficult for him to do it without faith in himself. It is self-confidence that makes it possible to bring the brain out of a state of fear.

As already mentioned, it is important to break down the process of fulfilling a promise made to oneself into concrete decisions. Every day it is worth painting your schedule, indicating a clear time frame. The implementation of the plan must be done daily. Once changes become part of Everyday life they will become a habit.

At the very beginning of the journey, it is worth accepting the fact that the fulfillment of the tasks set will require considerable effort, and the initial enthusiasm will quickly disappear. Sometimes it will seem that everything is not going the way it should. In the most difficult moments, you should connect your imagination and imagine a bright future, depending on the implementation of the plan. It is very important to give yourself a firm word - to achieve what you want in spite of your own laziness and adverse external circumstances.

The decisions that a person has to make in the process of implementing his plans should not contradict his internal principles. This will save him from negative emotions and stress. It is desirable that the outlined plan be part of the path leading to self-development. In addition, when evaluating the changes that have taken place, it is necessary to be indulgent towards yourself, that is, you should not dwell on mistakes, it is better to treat failures philosophically and find the strength to move on.

Good luck my dears. How not to stray from the path of your life. And how do you know if you're on the right track? You will get the answer to these questions by reading this parable.

How not to go astray.

— Master, how not to stray from the Path? Is there a secret?

- There are two of them. The first secret is that if what you already know is around you, or what is familiar to you is happening, then you are going anywhere, but not on the path.

The path is that which you do not know. This is the unknown, you cannot imagine it, you cannot assume anything, therefore you cannot make it your goal, achieve it or know it.

What you know should be left behind. Otherwise, you stopped.

The second rule - if you go right, then you are filled, if you go wrong, then you are wasted.

It does not matter whether pleasure or unpleasantness happens to you.

Pleasures drink the forces of life no less than troubles. Your strength will go away from melancholy and pride, they will go away from bragging and pride. Labor can also become empty and take away your strength entirely. Everything that absorbs your strength is a sure sign that you have strayed from the Path. As soon as your deeds begin to fill you, know that you are going right.

— Master, how can I understand whether I am wasted or filled.

“Start with a sense of wasted time. As soon as you realize that time is wasted, immediately quit this business ...

We all have our big and important goals. But achieving them requires quite significant changes in both habits and daily routine. Stock up on patience and perseverance. And most importantly - do not lose zeal on the way to your goals.

However, theory is much easier than practice. Even if you just love your job and believe in your mission 100%, there are times when you have to complete completely uninteresting (but absolutely necessary) tasks. And in these daily chores, we lose our zeal, not only for small tasks, but for our big dreams too.

1. Determine what inspires you

Might be big new house? A promotion with a corresponding salary? Traveling around the world with your family? Think about it and set yourself not just a big goal - a GIANT goal. If nothing comes to your mind, don't despair. Try the next trick.

Sit comfortably, close your eyes and relax completely. Imagine what would bring you great joy. It doesn't have to be something material or even physical. It could be the smile on your mother's face or the opportunity to spend more time with your loved one. Imagine it, feel your emotions, and write it down as your goal.

2. Don't lose sight of your goal

The problem is that we usually lose leaflets and notebooks in which we write down our goals ... But even if our list of goals is at hand, who wants to read and reread dry words every day? And why not turn the words into something more colorful and inspiring!

Let's say you'd like to go on vacation to the south of France. Go to Yandex or Google and find the most seductive picture of the Mediterranean coast of France and stick it on the wall in a place where you would see it every day. Collect pictures that illustrate each goal on your personal list. It could be pictures of places or objects, photos of you, numbers (like your salary), or even words (like “inspiration” or “joy”). Collect all these illustrations and stick them in a visible place. You can imagine how much better this will inspire you than any wording on paper.

3. Celebrate your accomplishments

Be sure to celebrate the accomplishment of each of your goals. It doesn't matter if it was a big or small victory. By celebrating your every accomplishment, no matter how significant, you will build up positive feelings of success that will help you keep reaching whatever goals you set. This feeling is a great motivation on the way to dreams!

4. Choose who you communicate with

Your mother was right, although she did not explain everything to you completely. Choose your friends carefully. Life is finite and it is worth spending with the same minded people. If you are looking for inspiration and motivation, spend time with uplifted and inspired people. The energy is contagious and you will soon begin to think like your friends. Try to choose friends who are not just "on a good wavelength", but who are genuinely happy and positive. Invite such a friend to dinner, chat with him, go to a party together or just for a cup of coffee - you embody the people with whom you communicate.

Last but not least, inspire others. You will be amazed how inspiring it is to share your inspiration and motivation. What's more, when you put your emotions into words, you reinforce those emotions.

Train your inspiration muscle by trying these simple tricks. When you are surrounded only by motivating factors, images and faces, it is much more difficult to go astray. And the path itself will become more fun and easier!
