What deserves your attention right now?
Your checklist can change as your work, home, family and responsibilities change.
My Prepared Life Checklist
Tell us a little about the life you are living today. Your answers help determine which areas may apply to you so you can focus on what matters instead of working through one enormous generic list.
Build My Checklist →A checklist without the guilt.
Preparedness is not pass or fail. The checklist is meant to help you see what is already handled, what needs another look and what may not apply to your life at all.
Have It
Already handled and currently in place.
Need to Check
You have something in place but want to verify the details.
Need to Put in Place
Something that may deserve action based on your situation.
Not Applicable
It does not apply to your current life or responsibilities.
Start with one responsibility.
You do not always need the full life review. These focused checklists help when one particular area needs attention.

Your checklist is shaped by your actual responsibilities. Owning a vehicle creates different needs than running a business. Having dependents creates different questions than living alone.
The checklist helps you organize. It does not need your secrets.
Have These Now is designed to help you identify what to have, review and organize. We do not need passwords, Social Security numbers, account numbers, medical diagnoses or the contents of legal documents to tell you what deserves attention.
