Adaptive Prepping
My husband and I have been interested in prepping lately because of the craziness of the world and our growing up as Guides and Scouts with the motto of Be Prepared. We have been finding certain things were making it harder to prep including not knowing where to start but also financial, physical and space constraints.
That’s what this book is all about. How to adapt prepping to your needs. Whether you have money, time, space, physical ability, energy or experience constraints or all of them, this book will help.
Identifying Limitations
First you will learn about the possible limitations to prepping and how to figure out which ones apply to you. The Principles of Limitations was very helpful and eye opening in general, not just about prepping. These five principles teach us that limitations are just that, limitations but not stoppers. Having financial issues or physical disabilities for example, don’t mean you can’t prep. It just means you need to adapt in the way you CAN prep. Hence the title of the book – Adaptive Prepping.
Action Items
The end of each chapter has Action Items which is helpful. Many self help books talk a good game but then you don’t know what exactly you should be doing sometimes. If you don’t DO anything, what good is the self-help book. By including action items at the end of the chapter, it serves as a recap and actionable list you can copy into your planner or notepad to get started on.
Not Just About Prepping
I briefly mentioned above but this book has great tips for not letting limitations limit you too much, for anything. I don’t really think you need to be interested in prepping to read this book honestly. Of course a lot of it IS about prepping but I got advice about other areas of my life as well. Like what? Well such as how to not let stress affect me so much, how to make space in my home for what’s important to me, how to prepare for physical limitations I’m aware will get worse and how to get work done.
Highly Recommended
I recommend all books I give 5 stars too but I wanted to give extra mention to this book. I love it so much I want to read all her other books. Highly Recommended.
