Why travel? Why make such an effort to build your business and life around it?

Here are just some of the things I get to experience when I travel, and that continue to inspire me to make it a focal point in my life.

• Being exposed to different ways of doing things
• Tasting new flavors
• Seeing things I’ve never seen before
• Exploring other cultures
• Experiencing new smells
• Missing people and places
• Hearing new sounds
• Getting new perspective
• Seeing how other people live
• Learning about myself and my travel partners
• Witnessing for myself something I’ve only seen in pictures or movies
• Trusting myself
• Trusting others
• Understanding how other people think
• Seeing how things really are, not how they’re portrayed in the media
• Discovering how big (and small) the world really is
• Learning other languages
• Getting out of my comfort zone

In addition to making travel a priority, you can also make a point of having more of these experiences even when you’re at home.

Seek out these experiences every day, no matter where you are.
