Best preperation: Get out of "survivor mode"

I take both views.

When i am in the mountains in deep midwinter, I prepare, check, test and check and test again to make sure every thing and anything I am carrying is working.

Trusting it to work is not knowing it will work.

Big difference.

Secondly, survival.

If a huge flood hit a city, who would be better prepared? the man who has alot of stored wtaer and food along side a boat, or the man who trusted every thing would be OK? See Texas coast and New Orleans for your answer...

BUT......

Instincts. Trust them over every thing else. I have led a life guided by instinct and 'feeling' and it has kept me always in the right place at the right time, or out of the wrong place at the wrong time.

What i am trying to say is that yes, do what 'feels' right, but prepare for a world where things go wrong.
