It's been 3 years since the start of the outbreak and somehow you're still alive. What are the key reasons for this?

I guess I'll go first:

• I stayed home for the first few weeks and waited out the worst chaos
• I was prepaired enough that I could stay at home
• I own a 4x4 truck and had several spare canisters of fuel which enabled me to bug out eventually with all my gear and no need to stop looking for fuel
• I stayed away from malls, supermarkets, gas stations and other hotspots
• Every time I encountered a zombie I ran away instead of fighting it
