Answer:Brian's mental attitude and toughness are enhanced through Perpich's lesson. Brian recognizes that panicking and undermining his own resolve will not help him. To "stay on top of things," Brian must be focused and recognize that each step towards survival is the only way he will find success.
Through internal conflict, external forces working against him, and with the help of his hatchet (a recent present from his mother), Brian learns to survive on his own.
