If you\u2019re involved in the preparedness lifestyle, you\u2019re probably into planning. Most likely, you research and study the excellent preparedness strategies<\/a>\"\" put out by experts. Whether we prepare for incidents small or large, we all ponder what we\u2019d do if something world-as-we-know-it-ending went down.<\/p>\n

The trouble is, a lot of the plans that get made are more likely to get you killed\u00a0than to save you. And people post these plans online, then new preppers read them and think, \u201cWow, what a great idea.\u201d<\/p>\n

I really love being involved in the preparedness lifestyle. I get to meet and correspond with lots of like-minded, down-to-earth people. \u00a0We have those awesome conversations that you just can\u2019t have with the checker at the grocery store cash register. \u00a0I get to engage in email and social media discussions too, the likes of which would never occur with my second cousin who thinks that missing a pedicure appointment is a disaster worthy of government intervention.<\/p>\n

But sometimes, I kind of cringe. Not all preparedness plans are well-thought out and practiced. In fact, there are several recurring themes that I hear or read that are not good ideas for most preppers, and I bet that many of you reading have also privately rolled eyes at one of the following strategies. (Or maybe even \u00a0publicly.)<\/p>\n

I\u2019m truly not trying to be mean when I share them with you here, nor am I trying to say that I\u2019m the Queen Prepper of the Universe,\u00a0who knows absolutely everything. \u00a0I\u2019d just like you to consider the variables if one of these plans happens to be your default strategy.<\/p>\n

Note: Some people really are ultramarathoners, expert hunters, ex-special forces, and super-farmers. If you are one of those folks, this article may not be for you. If you already regularly practice these skills, this article may not be for you. If you do nothing but talk about these ideas and daydream about your action-hero future, this article IS for you.<\/p>\n
