Your
Life Holds
Unlimited
Potential
and
Wonderful Dreams
You
have the ability
to
attain whatever you seek;
within
you is every potential
you
can imagine
Always
aim higher than
you
believe you can reach.
So
often, you'll discover
that
when your talents
are
set free
by
your imagination,
you
can achieve any goal.
If
people offer their
help
or wisdom
as
you go through life,
accept
it gratefully.
You
can learn much from those who have
gone
before
you.
But
never be afraid or hesitant
to
step off the accepted path
and
head off in your
own
direction
if
your heart tells you
that
it's the right way for you.
Always
believe that you
will
ultimately succeed
at
whatever you do,
and
never forget the value
of
persistence, discipline,
and
determination.
You
are meant to be
whatever
you dream
of
becoming.

SPONTANEITY
WORKS FABULOUSLY FOR SOME THINGS, BUT IT CAN
BE THE RUIN OF
OTHERS
Crisis is
one of those areas where researching,
gathering and organizing can make a
tremendous difference in one's success. But
don't fool yourself. Just storing extra
supples does not necessarily qualify you to
face disasters.
Above all
remember: your mind is one of your most
important survival resources. No matter what
situation you're presented with, you will
have options. The trick is to have your
mind prepared to receive the
abundance.
Supplies
will definately help you survive crisis.
Books that offer survival techniques will
help too. But nothing, including someone
else's account of what they did in a similar
situation, teaches like personal experience.
The difference between knowledge and wisdom
is experience.

Know-how Now!
Crisis
survival is a do-it-yourself
event. You need to devise practice scenarios
to test your reactions, stocks, new skills
and back-up plans. Crisis play-acting is not
exactly like really being in the midst of
chaos, but its a lot more real than
thinking about what could happen. At
the same time that you're gathering supplies,
practice
living without electricity, free-flowing tap
water; telephone and email connections and
anything else you really like to take for
granted.
You might
get a look at the most vulnerable parts of
yourself, you might even discover ugliness
you didn't want to know is there. You'll also
get a glimpse of the very best of you. The
exercises are worthwhile. Use them to make
your survival plans more efficient and
effective.

Procrastination Trap Alert!
One might
think that survival preparedness is too much
trouble! All these extra things to do on top
of an already overloaded schedule is way too
overwhelming. And some people, depending on
their current lifestyle, have more of a long
road to readiness than others. No question.
Being ready to survive disaster takes work.
It takes a concerted effort, consistently
applied, to make lasting changes to your
lifestyle. You can choose to ignore the
facts, retreat into your comfort zone and
convince yourself that the chances of
something happening to your family is
unlikely. What if you're
wrong?
