Epidsode-171- Getting Started Moving from Grasshopper to Ant [ 50:47 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | DownloadSomeone recently called into our toll free number at 866-65-THINK and asked if I could do a show geared to the “brand new person that has woken up and wants to stop being a grasshopper and become an ant”. Since that is not a call that can be answered on a listener call in show today’s episode is dedicated to answering that very questions.
Tune in today to hear…
- Why you must first determine where you are before you start prepping
- How the one shelf method can easily get you on your way to storing food
- Why documentation is so important to your success
- Priorities one, two and three – food, debt reduction, basic planning
- You didn’t get to where you are in a day, you won’t get out of it in a day either
- You may already have more food then you realize
- Figuring out what you already have and reorganizing and purposing it
- Understand the commonality of disaster and use it to your advantage
- Why you have to have YOUR OWN plans and goals rather then following another persons plan

- Why I discuss threats and what threat discussions are really about
- Why the individual threat is not that important to how you actually prep

- Thoughts about self defense beyond concealed carry especially where concealed carry is not legal or practical
