Contributor Bio:  Goodwin, Lisa My path to prepping started when I was little. My parents made it a part of my life, so I grew up thinking it was "normal" to do things like make your own clothes, or cook in a wood stove, and milk cows. But sadly, as I grew up I fell out of that way of thinking, and that way of life. But after I started my own family, and moved to a rural community, I quickly realized that being prepared for whatever country living could throw at you was much easier than relying on someone else. Even though I had not been living this lifestyle for about 20 years, the things I did learn came back to me. I found myself researching how to make my own butter and bread, and how to can. I learned the good and not so good ways to butcher a chicken and work my garden. And the more I started doing for myself, I really understood what it meant to be happy. There is a lot to be said for a hard day's work, and taking pride in what you have done. I work hard at trying to find ways to be more self-reliant, and I am grateful that my husband feels the same way. Together we find new ways to save money, store food, learn about security and just live a better life with less. You don't have to make millions of dollars to be happy, but you do have to be happy with what you have. I have learned so much from others, and through my own trial and errors. Now that doesn't mean it's all easy, and everything works the first time. But it has taught me to never give up and keep on trying, because success may only be one tiny mistake away. Knowing what I know now, when I first got started, I wished I would have had the vast amount of resources that are available now. With the ever changing environment of the world, and even the country we live in today, I feel it is so important to reach as many people as possible, and share what I have learned because maybe it will help someone else, and make a difference in their life. So I challenge you, as I have challenged myself. Make it a priority to become more prepared and self-reliant. This isn't something that you will be able to complete overnight, in a week, or even a month. Being prepared and self-reliant is a lifestyle that is best looked at as a marathon, and not a sprint. The more time you take and invest into it, the more you will get out of it. And the best part of all of this is you will really be setting yourself free, because you will have accepted responsibility for your future.
