There are people who spend their whole lives worrying and prepping for things. That's clearly excessive. However, complacency and denial are not going to serve anyone well either in the event of a disaster. Somewhere in between, we need to be aware of and prepared for likely events without spending our lives worrying about them.

Sort:  

Yes, there's a difference between planning/preparing and obsessing/fixating. The first two will allow you to live a more peaceful life now *and later. The latter will keep you in fear and difficulty even when the calamity happens. It's important to have a balance.

Looking forward to the rest of your series!
