Pocket Universe Survival Club

Survival Club has taught me that a key to survival is breaking up the often insurmountable task of facing the future into small achievable steps - doing the next right thing. The next right thing can be as big as making an important life decision, or as small as deciding to take a shower. Whenever I've felt overwhelmed this year, it has been enormously helpful to stop, breathe, and identify a step I can take (even just one!) that will lead me in the right direction.

What We Read

Every week, Survival Club reminds me of the importance of community to our survival. This year has been so full of isolation and not-knowing, and it's made all the difference to be able to do our not-knowing together.

And... a survival skill that works in literally any situation, including a global pandemic: DO THE NEXT RIGHT THING.

~Sam Gold

Survival Club has taught me that the more we assist each other during a dire situation, the more we are likely to survive ourselves.

I learned so much from WHO MOVED MY CHEESE? so narrowing it down to one thing is gonna be hard but if I have to...I think it's the importance of learning how to enjoy change.
