The Boy Scout Motto is “Be Prepared.” I think a better idea is to be over prepared.
In Marine Boot Camp we studied for the final written exam so much that I had the book memorized (yes there is a written exam to graduate boot camp). When the exam came, it was easy and most of us scored 100%. Not because it was easy, but because we were so prepared that you could have asked us anything out of the basic book and we new it.
A simple example is that when you get a flat tire, if you have the know how, parts, equipment, and AAA, it becomes just an inconvenience. If you don’t have the knowledge, parts, or AAA (or AAA won’t come), then you are in big trouble.
If you make yourself prepared for the worst that could happen, then little things become an inconvenience.
Work to be over prepared for life and things that derail other people will become and inconvenience to you.
Stay Safe,
Ben
