Travel More
The beauty of travel is it is a cure for what ails us. The act of traveling provides us with a sense of escape. An abandoning of the everyday stressors. Travel helps us feel more relaxed, happier, healthier, rejuvenated and prepared to be more successful upon our return to work.
Worried about when to take that well-deserved vacation? Pick a slow time of the year for your business. Then commit. Book well in advance.
Be a Global Citizen
Travel enforces the reality that we are all part of a larger global community. Travel across international borders fosters a greater appreciation for other countries & cultures. Make a concerted effort to spread your wings and travel farther from home.
Be Kind to the Environment
Select a destination that is eco-concious and offers sustainable travel and conservation programs. Make a pledge this year to give back to Mother Nature. Be conscientious, appreciate your beautiful surroundings, and be a good steward. Be aware of and limit your plastic use, and choose coral-safe sunscreen and body-care products.
Conquer a Fear
Push yourself out of your comfort zone. Broaden your horizons. Voyage to a resort off-the-beaten path. Go on a shark dive. Zipline through a jungle canopy. Be adventurous. Be bold. Try something new. The options are endless.
Get in Scuba Shape
Outsiders and newbies may not realize this, but as an experienced diver, you know scuba requires strength, muscular endurance, and a good range of motion. As divers, our experience with conditions like strong currents, cold water, poor visibility, and other challenging conditions can sometimes test our metal. As a fit diver, we are more likely to dive more often, be safer, and push ourselves to advance our training. The benefits of being a fit scuba diver include easier handling of gear, better use of air, and a greater enjoyment of the sport.
Strengthen a Relationship
Travel has a magic which brings people together and deepens relationships through shared experiences. Whether it be a spouse, parent, sibling, or dive buddy, spending quality time together forges a lifetime of memories and strengthens those existing bonds.
Go Slow and Take Time
Go slow and discover things most "tourists" might miss. You've traveled half-way around the world to experience this destination. Take time to soak in the sun, learn the history, absorb the culture, and savor a delectable delight as you encounter all the different and wonderful things this corner of the world has to offer.
Inspiration is the impetus for planning. I hope I have inspired you to discover our big, beautiful world in a way that will satisfy your soul. Time to make those plans.
