Recharging your batteries
Why this show is top of mind: Hawaii
What was included: Sun, hiking, CrossFit, swimming, pool, beach, great food, and even better friends.
First real vacation in over 5 years
* I like to work in cool places. It fires me up!
How long does it take to get your reset?
* For me, one week has been not even close to enough time.
What works even better than a vacation for me…
* Doing a really long race or endurance event.
* This scraps me down to my core and shows me what is really
important. Try running a marathon, or even better… and ultra
marathon. If you’re spending a whole day expending all of your
energy and all you have is your thoughts, you’ll figure out some
important things about yourself.
Finding your why
Ok, so, we’re all going to die at some point. And let’s be honest, we don’t know what comes after that.
One of my favorite people is Tim Ferriss, and he’s been talking a lot about using death countdown timers to motivate you to do the things that you really want to do.
I realize that this is morbid, but if it motivates you to quit the job you hate, or take the vacation that you’ve been dying to take for years, or start that business that you are scared might not work… then I love it!
I’ve put these two topics together because I think that vacation is a great time to reflect on what you’re doing all of this for… most people would say they would want to just stay on vacation and not go home.
How do you find your why if it’s not coming to you…
Try this – Think about what matters most to you… people, things, experiences, trips, etc. Write it all down. Or think about that you’re going to die and this could all be gone. Like really gone.
