Perhaps the most dreaded circumstance that we face in life is Incapacitation. It can be the result
of an accident, short and long term illness, loss of capacity; even a house fire can be considered to be a form of incapacitation.
A simple measure of incapacitation:
'Is my Lifestyle capable of being sustained today in the same manner as it was yesterday, before the incident?'
The Surgeon, the Plant Worker and the Pastor at the local church may have different answers, given that each of them cut off his thumb yesterday while cutting wood for the fireplace.
Will life be the same tomorrow with the computer records all lost forever as a result of the house fire yesterday. We don't need to be alarmed by these questions, simply motivated about protecting those interests before they move from the current status to something more vulnerable.
Do I know how well I am protected; do I have the proper information to make decisions that are smart 'for me'; can I improve my protection and plug the more vulnerable holes in my plan?
No Plan? As has been said before 'No Plan is still a Plan' ... let's hope it's not the Plan for failure.
None of us is immune to the vulnerability for incapacitation...no pill for that one...sorry about that. Each of is in charge of our 'procrastination' gene though...
