Just hearing the news these days lets us know there’s a need to be prepared for survival.  For example, the initial panic over the swine flu has subsided, but it’s still something we should be aware of.  It hasn’t gone away.  That’s the case with so many potential threats facing us.

Preparedness isn't just for immediate emergencies.  So many threats have been hyped, but have come and gone without materializing, and it’s easy to become lax.  It’s important to be ready for those things that seldom come along, such as floods, wildfires, hurricanes, etc.  I know of one family who prepared for Y2K ten years ago, and the fact that nothing happened didn’t change the preparedness mindset they developed.

We can be ready for the unexpected without being anxious.  Having useful information helps.  A company called The 7 Store, a fairly new DestinySurvival sponsor, has a free 46 page emergency preparedness guidebook for you called How to Prepare for Any Disaster, and you can download it to your computer right from their site.

How to Prepare for Any Disaster includes basic, common sense information and practical checklists.  For a relatively small book it covers a lot of ground.  The 7 Store offers you this emergency preparedness guidebook to help you develop the preparedness mindset, regardless of whether you buy anything from them.  Of course, they’ve got a truly large array of survival supplies, kits of all kinds for various situations, and a lot more for you.

One of my "DestinySurvival Dispatch" subscribers e-mailed me to say this little book is "a great resource."  To get your free copy of How to Prepare for Any Disaster, first click on their banner that asks, “Are You Prepared?”  Once the window for their home page opens, look for the place that says, “Click Here for the 7 Plan.”  When you click on that, the next page that comes up offers you a place to click to download  the emergency preparedness guidebook free.  Simply follow the instructions to get your copy.  Be as ready as you can be.
