Inspiration Monday - When You Are Down, Go Look Around!

January 21st, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Inspirations

Let’s face it. Life is full of ups and downs. Who knows what is going to happen tomorrow. Lots of people have told me to live life to the fullest and enjoy the most out of today and don’t worry about tomorrow. Such statement is very childish but still somewhat meaningful. Of course we have to plan for tomorrow and plan for our goals, but still enjoy our days while doing so. Most hard working people are very focused on their tasks on hand and rarely take breaks. What if reality is letting you down? What if things are not going well for you, both for your life or your business? This week’s inspiration is when you feel frustrated and things are not going well, take a short break and relax in a place that is foreign for you.

Picture of me during the trip to the Rocky Mountain in Banff, Alberta.

Whenever I feel tired and unable to keep up with my tasks, I go travel. It doesn’t have to be far and long. You should do the same. If your time is very limited, just take the weekend off and join a tour. My last trip was to the Rockies in Alberta. The total duration of the trip was about 4 days. The reason why I chose to join a tour instead of driving there myself is because I could meet lots of quality people and listen to their stories. During the trip I met a family from Los Angeles. I had learned a lot from them. You will never know who you will meet and what you will see. You may also meet some people who may know the solution for your problems. Additionally, visiting places that you don’t visit regularly can refresh your mind and let you think clearly. The important benefit for taking a short break to travel, aside from the gain in networking and knowledge, is knowing more about the person/people you go with. Maybe it is your wife/husband, girlfriend/boyfriend, best friend, or family. The experience is money can’t buy.

Trust me, after your break, you will feel freshed and ready to go at it again. You will have your drive back. You will have your visions clear. You will be focused again and solve all your problems.
