CALLING ALL NEWBIES and WANNABIES

[Straight Shooter]

Hi all ! if you have just got started on the road of the survivalist or prepper, How are you doing, are you working to a plan? . For a lot of us starting the tendency is to try to get everything all at once, and there,s new skills to learn, its a lot to take in , in one hit that is , especially if you feel time is against you, you feel its all uphill and WHAT order of things should you be working towards, what's first, what should be last, do not let this get you down, its quite normal , then there's the time to do things and of course the money to buy the things you need, no easy feat if your on the bones of your arse, BUT you have made the first step just being HERE, a positive step forward, that's what you need lots of BEING POSITIVE is the number one thing you need to be a survivalist or prepper, so it follows you have to stay positive, if you have no money there are a lot of things you could and should be doing to keep moving forwards , it could be looking for a BOL or sharpening a knife loads of stuff to be doing. You should post something if you think the subject would be of interest for others ( don't worry about making a dick of yourself ....I do it all the time) get stuck in and get involved ALL of us will see the benefit of your input and you will grow with the experience of posting, everyone starts in the same place on there.... the good... the bad and the ugly......get posting! let us know where your at or not

I suppose you could call me a newbie to actually doing something about it in my life and being on here but i am awake and living in londonistan which is fun as you could imagine.I am grateful to all contributors to this great site and have learned so much off you lot and met some great people off here.My situation is far from ideal and i wish it was different but its not so i can only do what i can but im in a better position now than the average asshole or is that sheeple.

So you regulars keep doing what your doing so i can learn more and hopefully i can contribute some aswell.

Love ya all

In a way we are all newbies no matter how long we have been prepping,.. simply because there are always new ideas that can be followed, and things you have not thought about

Its great when someone new comes on board, because its often the case that someone with less experience looks at certain things in a new way,..old hands can all to often get stuck with certain ways of doing something, and miss better ways of doing things
