- Start a container garden.
- Cut back on energy consumption.
- Learn and implement different water purification techniques.
- Perfect fire starting abilities without lighters or matches.
- Upload more videos and product reviews.
- Learn how to forage in my area and do it regularly.
- Go camping with the family more often.
- Add more info to my prepper binder.
These are my top 10 goals for this next year.
I plan on getting back in shape and building back my stamina. Since I started driving, I let my body get out of shape. So now that I’m not driving and will be going to school, I will have the time to get back into shape. I have equipment here at the house I can use or I can use it at the school.
I want to add at least one more month’s worth of food and the basics to my food storage. I have been thinking about doing some canning. But I think I will wait until I move to a place where I can have a decent sized garden.
I plan to start a container garden here soon. The layout of my apartment and the way the sun shines, I will be limited to the amount I can grow. I don’t have much direct sunlight at any given time, but I will see what I can do.
I will be more active in lowering my energy consumption. I know that every penny saved can go towards something more important. So if I can actively monitor my energy consumption, I can find out how to lower it as much as possible while still enjoying everything.
There are many ways to purify water, I want to perfect a few of them that way if need be, I can do it. Sure I can just rely on things like the Life straw and other filters but I think knowing how to build a purification system will be very beneficial.
Building fire without the use of lighters or matches is something that everyone should know how to do. I have done it a lot in the past, but when I started driving, I never got the chance to do any of it. Some stuff I think I can still do, but then again, if you don’t use it you lose it.
I want to start doing more video’s. I do plan on doing a video series for my container garden that I will be starting this year. I also want to do more product review’s. I have a list of product’s that I have but still haven’t done a product review over.
Foraging, I did start to work on this while I was still driving. When I would be unloading the feed I had time to look around and see what all was available. There wasn’t much but grass but in some area’s there were some stuff that I had spotted.
I would love to take the family camping. Camping is something that I grew up doing. We went all over and it was a blast! Now that I’m not driving, I would like to start getting back into camping throughout the year.
I started my prepping binder and put some information in it, but I haven’t added to it in quite some time. It is a big binder so it can hold a lot of information. I just need to start putting that information into the binder.
What are your goals to set for the next year? I know everyone is different so there will be a lot of different answer’s. I hope to hear what your ideas are!
