Dear Greg,
There’s a familiar truth for anyone who has spent time on the water: growth often comes from navigating uncertainty and discomfort. Seamanship teaches us to prepare for the current moment
as well as what lies ahead—may that be changing weather, shifting tides, or other unknowns.
That same mindset can be helpful when thinking about our future selves. Many of us plan for the future in tangible ways, but it isn’t always easy to think about, and sometimes it’s challenging
to get started (speaking from experience!).
One of the most important parts of preparation is having a will. A will clarifies your wishes and allows you to name how the people and causes you value are cared for while reducing
stress for your loved ones.
You can get started with this free and secure online resource <https://nwmaritime.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=cb069e2ef93881d477105d51f&id=714310e6ab&e=b39a6fd251> that guides
you through the process of creating your will. It’s simple to use, and only takes about 20 minutes to complete.

Planning ahead doesn’t mean rushing into it. Being thoughtful about your intentions and who you name as beneficiaries <https://nwmaritime.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=cb069e2ef93881d477105d51f&
id=86d5e4472a&e=b39a6fd251> can ensure your plans are guided by your values.
Whether you’re starting your first ever will or updating an existing document, I hope you find this resource helpful in planning for your future self and your loved ones (present AND
future).
Warm regards,
