Ok I kind of came up with my own list here. In no particular order.

Know that if you are not cheating, you are not trying. (this applies to everything in life, minus sports)
Know how to tie at least six different types of knots.
Know how to make a three to one.
Know how to read not only a road map, but a topographical map.
Know how to use a compass.
Know how to build a snare from vine.
Know how to cook meat without a grill or stove.
Know how to skin dinner.
Know how to build fire at least four different ways.
Know how to track an animal.
Know how to find an answer to your question.
Know how to admit when you are wrong.
Know how to read someone’s face.
Know how to train an animal.
Know how to build shelter using primitive materials.

This is a work in progress so things may be added as time goes on.
