I agree with your perception on self analysis and where 'you' wish to be in the future, both short and long term.
I hope you find what you look for here ...There is plenty of information to be found here and with a little imagination can often be tweaked to our own situations.
Needing life changes sort of sounds pretty far reaching, I hope it will be as positive for you as possible. What *might* still be possible while you're doing that is the prepping that comes from collecting knowledge - a set of bookmarks, a folder of articles, the study of maps of your local area to see what resources there are, what plants can be foraged locally, what hidey holes there might be in case of a rioti erupting (don't know where you live, or how likely that is, mind you!).
I think you mis-understand my meaning of life changes..... There is nothing far reaching
I think choosing to be a prepper is a life change, you need to look at how you live and see where to go forward..
Currently I'm very overweight and have the fitness level if an eighty yr old, so this is where I must begin my prepping..... With myself,
However this will not come overnight and is a long road..
So whilst I'm doing this I thought joining a forum of like minded people might give me incentive and perceptive.
I think you misunderstand my meaning of "far reaching" - to my mind, being a prepper is far reaching Good for you on deciding to lose the weight and get fitter, thats the same, in my head anyway!
