Level Orange

If you've traveled by air in the last decade, you're probably familiar with airports, airlines and their employees referencing a threat level "color," This color or series of colors is an advisory system or scale to help indicate which actions, are necessary to help ensure safety. A Level Green indicates the need for lower security or precautionary measures, where a Level Orange indicates 'high risk of danger,' and being on high alert. Different circumstances, events, actions, words, situations or even people can affect and change the color / level of security necessary.

What about for you? What is your advisory system or scale? For some of us, we operate all day at a Level Red - on guard, defensive and tense. Maybe we're at a Level Blue today, feeling slightly guarded but having no real feeling of threat coming our way - maybe we should be on a higher alert? In order to identify what level you are or should be at, you first need to be aware of your surroundings and happenings. Pay attention to those circumstances, events, actions, words and people and try to identify with how you feel. From there, you can better assess what actions are necessary which will indicate which "level" you should be at to ensure your safety.  

Prepare for safe travels throughout your day today and enjoy the journey.
