In Ferguson, MO, officer Darren Wilson fired at Michael Brown 13 times, hitting him 7, with his .40 SIG 229, leaving one round in the chamber (13+1). In his testimony, Wilson recalled he remembered to look at the front sight for the last two rounds, and only the last one counted.

Why does mindset come first in the list? That was one of Jeff Cooper's thoughts. You must be determined to survive, even if wounded. Once that is settled, the rest comes easier - aim, shoot, repeat, until the threat ends.

I hope I never get to that situation, but if I do that it works for me.
