Packing for a long ride
Prepare yourself with what you'll need
Lists are great ways to stay on track. Write down what you'll need and what you'll want to have, and you'll be ready to go.
Check the list regularly
Don’t forget to check in and see how you’re doing. Just because you don’t achieve the big goals right away doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.
Reward yourself
When you succeed in achieving a goal, be it a big one or a small one, make sure to pat yourself on the back.
Think positively
Positive thinking is a major factor in success. So instead of mulling over things that didn’t go quite right, remind yourself of things that did.
Two-thirds of the earth's wildlife have disappeared, but there are still simple things that we can each do to help save our planet.
It's important to most of us to make a positive difference in the world, although it seems difficult now with so much political unrest while climate change accelerates. We can, however, make a huge difference for future generations, wildlife and the planet by simply planting an acorn or two.
We can build our local community's resiliency by gardening and sharing produce together. This is true whether we live in the country, suburbs or a city.
