Talking about preparedness is often a double-edged sword. On one hand, the last thing we want to do is run around like a bunch of Chicken Little\u2019s screaming \u201cthe sky is falling.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, pretending that evil, natural disasters, pandemics, social unrest and a wide range of threats don\u2019t exist is not only dangerous, it’s also a bit delusional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When people say that Preppers are\njust giving into fear, or accuse survivalists of being a bunch of fear mongers,\nI usually ask them something like, “Is a Hurricane alert fear\nmongering?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fact is bad things happen, evil\nexists, and disasters are part of life; ignoring the realities of the world\nthat we live in is not living a life free of fear, it\u2019s living a life\nunprepared to face those fears. In fact, I would argue that the people who\nignore the very real dangers present in today\u2019s society are the ones that have\nthe most to fear from fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cThe Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself\u201d
FDR<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nWhat a powerful quote, and how true it is. In my opinion, people who are preparedness minded \u2013 call them preppers, survivalists, or any other term you want to give them \u2013 are the ones who are going to be immune to the adverse influences of fear. They\u2019re the people who aren\u2019t going to have to worry how they\u2019re going to feed their families in the aftermath of a disaster, because they stocked up when everyone else told them they were crazy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During a catastrophe, it\u2019s those who prepared that are going to have the least amount to worry about. They are ready because they used fear as a motivating force. Those who mocked them are the ones that are in for a world of hurt; they are the people who are going to have to deal with the negative consequences of fear when they can least afford to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remember, there is a big difference between being prepared and giving into media fear mongering!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even during the current COVID-19 Coronavirus outbreak it’s good to keep things into perspective, and not live your life in fear. Officially, we have around 680,000 worldwide deaths. While those numbers might seem scary, let’s put them into persepctive for a moment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- We live on a planet with almost 8 billion people. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We also live in a world where we have 650,000-700,000 worldwide flu deaths every year<\/a>. Did you stop your life last flu season?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We live in a world where 1.5 million die every year from Tuberculosis<\/a>, yet we don’t shut down the world or demand people wear masks for that deadly disease — and that kills three times the number of people every year than this so-called pandemic! When is that last time you strapped on a mask in fear of TB?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- If you are under 18, you have virtually zero chance of dying from COVID-19. On the flip side, Diarrheal\u00a0diseases account for 1 in 9 child\u00a0deaths\u00a0worldwide<\/a> \u2013 when is the last time you worried about your child dying from a Diarrheal\u00a0disease?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Currently, the real danger is in how people are reacting to the crisis — that’s not to say the virus couldn\u2019t become a largescale threat at some point, but it’s important to keep in mind what the facts actually are and then make your preparations according to the best possible data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In my opinion, currently the major threat seems to be supply chain shortages, people\u2019s reaction to the crisis, and the unknown information that is causing everyone to panic and shut everything down. Remember, sometimes it\u2019s the panic and fear that are the biggest threat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is Fear Really a bad thing to begin with?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When I first started this website\none of my biggest concerns was trying to help people better prepare themselves\nto face threats and disasters, but I wanted to do that without having to\nfrighten them, or add a bunch of unnecessary stress into their lives. I\nabsolutely despise companies who turn every tragedy into an opportunity to make\nmoney; during every crisis there are always dirtbags attempting to exploit the\ncrisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately, we live in a country\nwhere 99 out of 100 people refuse to do anything to prepare themselves for the\nvery real threats that are out there. The only time they do seem to take action\nis when a crisis hits too close to home, and they are scared into acting \u00ad\u2013 Once\nthe crisis passes they slip back into their normal lives until the next panic strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apparently, some people need a\nlittle bit of fear to act, but that might not necessarily be a bad thing. In\nfact, fear can be a great motivator, and in certain situations can help us take\nthe actions we need to take to keep ourselves and our loved ones out of harm\u2019s way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fear can be a powerful ally.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Fear is a primal instinct that was\ngiven to us for a reason, and if we use that fear as a motivating factor \u00ad\u2013\ninstead of a weight that drags us down \u00ad\u2013 then we take something that\u2019s usually\nthought of as a negative influence and turn it into a powerful ally. The\nproblem with fear is most people simply don\u2019t know how to react to it; they\u2019ve\nbecome desensitized by a culture that uses fear as a way to control and tear\ndown, instead of as a motivating factor to do something to help our situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The key to turning fear into an ally\nis examining where our fear comes from and then using that information to take\naction. It\u2019s the action, and rising above our fear that puts us ahead of the\nunprepared masses who will succumb to its devastating effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- Fear can bring clarity and help us realize what threats we need to prepare for.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Fear, if used as a motivating force, can help us gather data, plan & prepare for future problems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Fear should be channeled into something positive; the action that helps alleviate those fears.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Removing the effects of Fear from disasters and crisis situations:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
While aspects of fear can be helpful\nunder certain circumstances, if you don’t learn how to how to properly control\nit, it can be a debilitating killer. In a survival situation, the last thing\nyou want to experience is a significant amount of fear during what is an\nalready a stressful situation. Preparedness is the antidote to that fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his book, How\nto Stop Worrying and Start Living<\/a>, author Dale Carnegie gave some of the\nbest advice ever written on worry. One quote from the book that I think is\nparticularly helpful in regards to preparedness is,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have a worry problem, do\nthese three things:<\/strong>
\n1. Ask yourself: \u201cWhat is the worst that can possibly happen?\u201d
\n2. Prepare to accept it if you have to.
\n3. Then calmly proceed to improve on the worst.<\/p>\n\n\n\nI think that advice is exactly what\npreparedness minded people do by preparing for disasters, and it’s exactly\nwhat’s going to give them the advantage when things go bad. By mentally\npreparing for the worse, excepting it (if it’s likely to happen), and then\nfiguring out ways to not only survive but thrive during the crisis, you can\ndefeat the negative effects of fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like Carnegie says in his infamous\nbook on worry, “Get the facts. Let\u2019s not even attempt to solve our\nproblems without first collecting all the facts in an impartial manner.”\nPreparedness is about knowledge, and knowledge is power. It\u2019s also the key to\nsurvival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
