To Go Anywhere, You Need Somewhere to Go
Here's a simple task you can do in a week that will eventually help you to travel more. Travel to places big and small for long or short trips. Travel on your own, with family and friends, or with strangers. The first step to achieving big dreams is letting yourself dream in the first place. So this week, make a dream travel list. List every single place you want to go, and don't just put generic items like Asia, though this could be included to. Instead include every monument you want to see, event you want to attend, and city you want to explore. If you really have the travel bug, I imagine this list will be long.
After you've made the list, prioritize it. Star the items that would be most desirable. Mark the ones that would be easy to get to because they are close or inexpensive. You can rewrite the list now if you want to reflect these changes. For extra credit turn the list into a dream board, adding pictures and using nice font for even more inspiration.
The nice thing is, that this technique is a great way to define any type of goal, and making lists or dream boards makes people more likely to achieve whatever it is that they desire. So go ahead and allow yourself to dream. It might seem like this task would be too small and easy to actually help you get anywhere, but small things will add up.
Share your lists, or pictures of your travel board by sending them to wewrite2go@gmail.com. Top entries will be featured on the blog each week.
I could make a pretty long "dream list." Our granddaughter is currently spending four months in Strasbourg, France, as part of her college curriculum, and I'm sharing her European adventure vicariously. I think I'll have to be content with that for a while!
