I like this one...

Some good advice already given...

I'd say (some will be repeat)

1) Yes, the tool between you ears...which can be enhanced by practice, which leads to confidence.
2) A good survival knife...it is possible to do it all with this...build shelter, start fires, get game...i never leave home without mine...http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a24/AlbertJohnson/David/TheKnife.jpg
3) Water and shelter...the water ought to be easy...the shelter you need to make.  One can go more than 30 days without food as long as they've got water...i've gone 20 days without food, living only on fluids.
4)  Knowing how to make a compass...several ways...place a small rock at the tip of the shadow of a 3 - 20 foot stick or tree...wait 20 minutes...place another rock....the the first rock being the arrowhead and the 2nd rock the feathers, this arrow will point due West.  At night, find Orion...take your forefinger and point from Orion's bottom thru his belt to his top...you'll be pointing North...a crescent moon's bottom tip will be pointing south, from the top tip.
