Did it take you 20 minutes to do a 2-minute task this past week? (Did that happen a few times? )
Your December holiday was four distant months ago, and even if you had a winter break vacation, you might be running on fumes now.
The mere act of planning and booking a vacation can pump you up. Having something fun to look forward to doesn’t just lift the soul; it motivates you to keep selling hard. With all due respect to the 900 million canines alive in the world, you work like a dog. You deserve many vacations throughout the year. Don’t make this year’s vacation a default…as in, "…we always go to Lake Somuchfun, so we’re going again this year."
Sure, go there, but also make it a reality to visit that place you’ve always wanted to go to this summer.
Is it Japan?
The Pyramids of Giza?
What about N’awlins in the dead of summer, highlighted by a midnight swamp tour with a rollicking zydeco band?
This weekend, book a different summer trip. The sooner it’s on the books, the better."
Watch this insipid – yet outstandingly fun 10-second summer vacation parlor trick to get you in the mood for your big weekend of planning and shopping.
Quote of the day
Rest is not idleness…and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
