1. SHOW THEM A NEW, BETTER WAY TO---
PLANT/GROW FOOD, GET / MAKE DRINKABLE WATER, CATCH WILDLIFE, START A FIRE ON DEMAND, USE SAND, SOIL, ROCK, WEEDS AND DIRT, CLAY, ETC. TO MAKE BRICKS TO MAKE MORE PERMANENT HOMES AND BUILDINGS, ETC. SHOW THEM HOW TO MAKE SHOES OUT OF NATURAL MATERIALS.
2. TEACH THEM A NEW SPIRITUAL CONCEPT -- GOD AND WHAT HE IS ABOUT AND ALL OF HIS BENEFITS -- THAT WILL CHANGE THEIR LIFE (DO THIS BY ANIMATION, POINTING TO THE SKY, ETC.)
3. SMILE AT THEM AND HOPE YOU ARE NOT THEIR NEXT MEAL!!!!!

Subject: [Imagination Club] Challenge: island survival strategy
I am representing a fictional situation. Probably you will never face this situation in your life. But still, use your imagination to come up with solution.
Situation: You are only survivor from a plane crash. You have landed on some isolated island using parachute, you don't know where. You don't have any mean for communication with outer world. Oh yes, to add in tragedy there are few tribes people who have their own dialect which you can not understand.
Only food available on the island is the food produce by tribes people. You can not have fruits or kill animals as tribes people will not allow you as they are sacred to them. I repeat: ONLY FOOD AVAILABLE ON THE ISLAND IS THE FOOD PRODUCE BY TRIBES PEOPLE. To survive you must get food from tribes people. Without food you can survive for two days. This is your first day.
Challenge: They will not give you food until you can trade something useful to them. Your challenge is sell them something with or without learning their dialect. Of course they will not give you food second time if they think what you have given them is not useful or you have nothing anymore to trade. Find a long term solution.
Happy brainstorming session!
Regards,
MD

[Imagination Club] Admin: How it works
The imagination club is very new and is about stretching
our imaginations and sharing creative ideas.
So far, I've basically presented challenges to the club and
you've come up with some creative solutions.
I'd really like YOU to throw some challenges to the group
as well. They can be real challenges that are relevant to
your business, pastimes or life - or invented challenges.
