Self Sufficiency: Getting Back To Basics

How To Live Off The Grid

By: Terence A. Williams

Chapter 1- Self-Sufficiency Defined - What Does It Mean?

Many people want to be self-sufficient. They want to know how to be self-sufficient themselves. They want to know how to teach their children to be self-sufficient, too. They expect the people around them to be self-sufficient, because they don't want to be sufficient for others as well as themselves. People value self-sufficiency. You may think you want to be self-sufficient. Maybe you're not there yet and you're trying to learn. But do you really understand what self-sufficiency means?

Sufficiency means to have or be "enough." If you have enough money to pay your bills and your household expenses, then you have sufficient income. Self-sufficiency means being enough by yourself, so someone who is self-sufficient can supply their own needs without anyone else's help. Now, that may sound pretty simple, right? You're enough for yourself, so you're self-sufficient, right? But if you think about it a little more, you may start to wonder if that's really true.
