I think it's the will to survive.
I believe it's the will to survive and vanquishing fear, people without wilderness survival skills have survived because they had the will to carry on and people with survival skills couldn't vanquish fear and died. But, always choose what you think is important.

Having confidence in your abilities, and staying calm are very important. If you start to freak out, you'll forget some key survival tips. Beyond that, being able to find food, water, shelter, and your way back to civilization should be your top priority.

    The ability to find food and water and actually eat things that are… ummm less than desireable. I suppose that is part of the will to survive you mention.

    Finding safe water is without question the most important survival skill. Man and most other animals can survive for a long time without food, but water is essential for even short term survival.
