Podcast: Play in new window | Download (16.0MB)
While I may frame the show today in regard to the current crisis it is all upbeat and optimistic, and the reason is there is a lot to be optimistic about. I am going to start with how a 60 readiness plan works, why if you have one you should be in great shape right now.
I am going to talk about strategic planing and utilization of things like the the “payroll protection” provision of the CAREs act and building a business right now, yea right now. Yet I am also going to talk about the hands on things I am doing on my property right now. Like building more hydroponics systems, more consideration about a micro CSA for my area, expanding my gardening, expanding my aquaculture, plant propagation and more.
It may sound in a negative way too opportunistic but the truth is most people, especially those who are prepared can actually come out of the current situation ahead. I have been asked a lot lately, why I am not more concerned and why I am so optimistic despite all that has gone wrong.
The answer is simple, I am and have been prepared for things to go wrong, the reason is less important than the what. Once you are in that mode, you simply adapt, improvise and overcome. Those that do generally benefit. History is full of stories of how tragedy led to fortunes being made, but only the tales of the famous or infamous stand the test of time. For every such story there are thousands of smaller success stories. We will never know them, they are lost to time, but you can be one, right now, if you chose.

- 60 Days of readiness is all most ever need, this time proves that true
- If you are prepared, you can think, if you can think you can adapt, if you can adapt you can thrive
