Be Prepared

Today's message comes from page 190 of Simply An Inspired Life: Consciously Choosing Unbounded Happiness in Good Times and Bad with permission of my publisher Conari Press...

“Be Prepared.”
“Be prepared for what?”
“Why, for any old thing.” said Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouting.
[as quoted in the Boy Scout Handbook]

For Baden-Powell, the motto, “Be Prepared,” meant more than just being ready for emergencies, it meant being ready for all challenges to mind and body - meeting all of life’s struggles with courage - happily and without regret - having done your best.

Pretty smart, those scouts. The motto of the Boy Scouts, could profitably be a way of life for all of us.
