Travel

So what does everyone do when they don’t know what to do? Actually better question: What should everyone do when they don’t know what to do? Travel.

And no, not because you will find yourself and the true meaning of life aboard a boat in South East Asia (well maybe depending on how many grams of shrooms you consumed) surrounded by all of the fabulous new people that will fill your life with purpose and meaning. You should travel because, and I mean this with complete sincerity, once you travel alone for the first time, a lot of the other nonsense seems a lot less difficult.

Because when you travel alone, you have to make all the choices. Sounds great right? So much freedom, so much choice. Until you realize that you have to make all the choices. That means deciding where to go, how long you stay, where you stay, how to get there, what to eat, when to leave, where to go, how long you stay…. get it?

Nothing melts anxiety like actually needing to make a choice. Like Nike has been screaming at us since 1988, Just Do It.

Or as I like to say, Just Fucking Do It.
