A lot of the things that might be impossible to get soon have already been very difficult to get for months and months. If you don't have those things already, keep trying, but also think about backup plans.

I've recently added a few backup knives, eating implements, and fire starting tools to the kit in case of breaking / losing any - a swiss army knife, another survival knife, some "tactical sporks" (i laugh every time i say that), and some more camo (both clothing and netting for vehicles / camps).

But honestly, and this is a big one, the biggest deficiency in my entire system right now is cardio. When I was younger I took a lot of comfort knowing I could outrun most people over both short and long distances, and humping 100 lbs of gear 20 miles into the mountains was doable as long as I had enough daylight, but none of that is true now. So #1 on my list is to work on my cardio, and now that I think about it, my kit could probably do with some spare pairs of shoes/boots.
