Hey there, Preppers. Someone let the Nijna Monkeys in! We'll try to be helpful and encouraging, and not be our normal pestering selves. We liked this note about Uncle Ben, who seemed to be as crazy as we are! "Benjamin Franklin's quote about preparation is, "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail". This phrase emphasizes the critical importance of planning and preparedness for achieving any goal, implying that a lack of preparation directly contributes to future failure. Key takeaways from the quote: Proactive vs. Reactive: It highlights that taking action to plan and prepare for an event or goal is a proactive approach to success, whereas not preparing is a passive approach that invites failure. Foundation for Success: Proper preparation lays the groundwork for success, making it significantly easier to overcome challenges and achieve desired outcomes." But then, this was a guy who flew a kite in a Thunder and Lightning storm — |
