Future-proof your dreams #3: Prepare for disaster

Predicting the future is impossible, but all your goals live there, so you can’t avoid thinking about it. We need plans to channel our time, energy, and money despite having little idea what the next few years will hold or how well our ideas will work.

Quotes by Alicia McKay (?)

“When our values run even mildly in opposition to the status quo, sticking to them isn't always easy, no matter how much we believe them. The systemic and structural forces at play push everything toward the path of least resistance, and it's how we find ourselves a cog in the wheel, wondering how we've got here.”
