A Fresh New View.....
It’s amazing how our minds work. You’d think that taking “time off” from work would put you further behind when you get “back” to work. But while YOUR CONSCIOUS MIND is taking time off on vacation, your UNCONSCIOUS MIND is able to take a step back from your canvas of life and see new opportunities that you couldn’t possibly see at ground zero. When you do this consciously my great friend Jon Ward refers to this as “ZOOM THINKING” and it is a brilliant way of thinking to promote expanded horizons and viewing your life and your opportunities from different points of view.
If you are thinking of touring Europe anytime soon, be prepared to spend a lot of money! It was hard to believe how few Euro’s I’d get for my American dollars.
Regardless, getting to see cities and sites I’ve read about, studied and seen in movies or on television first hand is priceless.
If you happen to like cruising the way that Sue and I do (this was our 13th or 14th), it’s always a fun getaway. If you’re lucky enough to be seated at a table like we had, it just enhances the experience. We were at a table of 5 couples that hit it off and had a fun 12 meals together over 12 nights.
The Europe we saw is so much different from the U.S.A. It has a completely different personality from the cigarette smoking that’s everywhere, to the wine with every meal, to the motor scooters and bikes that flood the streets, and the small cars parked like sardines along the side of the streets turning them from 2 lanes into 1.
To see the Vatican City, the Coliseum, and all the historical sites in Rome, along with Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius; to go in a water bus along the Grande Canal in Venice and wander the streets for hours on end; to walk the walls of Dubrovnik in Croatia, or take a bike ride along the walls of Lucca in the Tuscany region; to eat an authentic Italian meal in Positano, Italy way up the “Vertical City” overlooking the expensive yachts of the Rich and Famous; to dine in Monaco and witness the incredible wealth of this tiniest of nations; to stand next to and pretend to be holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa; for all of these reasons and too many more to mention here, to experience all of this, to me, is priceless.
Over the past 18 years, my wife Sue and I have taken at least 1 such trip annually. I am blessed for having had this opportunity and taken advantage of it. Travel, learning, seeing new people and places, are all a priceless part of my life.
Having financial freedom, as I do, allows me to have a priceless life! Do you have a PRICELESS LIFE? If you do, you are blessed! If you don’t I can guide you, as I guide my clients and friends daily in my business.
Commit to having a priceless life. Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and EARN your priceless life. You actually can learn how to create your priceless life. It’s up to you to take the action.
I hope you do!
Namaste.
Jeff
