Is one of your New Year’s resolutions to make 2020 the year that you get better prepared? If it is, we’ve got you covered. You can easily and inexpensively get prepped by doing just five tasks per month.

Take the overwhelm out of prepping.

If there’s one thing you can say about prepping, it’s that your work is never done. There’s always something new to buy, some skill you need to learn, or a disaster that you know you just aren’t quite ready for yet. It can be downright overwhelming, especially if you happen to be new at the whole thing, but also, even when you’ve been at it for years.

It’s enough to make some folks just give up. They know too much to completely turn a blind eye to the happenings of the world, but they just can’t summon up the energy to work at preparing on a regular basis.

Others sort of “halfway” prepare. They have a few supplies but they know there’s a lot more they should be doing. If only they had the energy and money to do it.

It’s enough to make others stop before they ever start. Perhaps they know that bad things can happen but then they go and check out a prepping website and see the huge tasks that others are accomplishing, view the pantries of folks who have been at it for years, and mentally tally up the cost of the things they don’t yet have. All they can see is the things they have yet to do and thousands of dollars spent. They immediately close out of the page and ask themselves, “Who has time for that? I’m not rich and I have a life!”

Prepping doesn’t have to be like that.

Prepping doesn’t have to be the daunting task that I’ve just described. It doesn’t have to empty the kids’ college funds. It doesn’t have to take every waking moment after work until bedtime.

You just have to know how to break things down.

We have a book to help you do just that. It’s called The Prepper’s Yearbook. It’s by guest poster Erica Nygaard. She is another single mom who lives in rural Iowa. She works full time, raises her kids, lives on a super-strict budget, and still finds the time and the money to be well-prepared.

And in her book, she explains the secrets of exactly how she does it. She gives you all her secrets for getting stuff done. And better yet, she breaks it down in a way that isn’t the least bit overwhelming.

All you have to do is five tasks per month. Many of them won’t cost you a penny, while others are expenses that you are breaking down throughout the year. Sure, you won’t be set all at once, but you also won’t have to go broke or work your fingers to the bone. Win-win.

I’ve been prepping for years and the breakdown in this book is beneficial to me. Whether you’re new at this or have been at it for a long time, this will help you organize the tasks you need to do to be well prepared. And you can do it over and over again because as we all know, pantries need to be inventoried, supplies need to be checked, and skills need to be practiced.
