Why To Quit Your Business And Explore The World

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


I experience it each time whenever I travel overseas. I discuss with friends who come to know that I am going somewhere, and they always say the one thing: “It’s really amazing! I wish I could also do that.”

worldflagsscreen-1

And my reply is also always the same: “What’s keeping you then?”

I am not judgmental guy; I am simply trying to find what motivations or priorities others are having? There really could be a solid argument why somebody doesn’t travel much, but the replies I mostly listen back are variations of these answers:

“I don’t have extra bucks to spend on traveling.”

Nice thing, if it is true, but for many folks who argue this, I think it would be much better to say,” I have picked out to spend my money on many other important things, so now I do not have money for traveling.” America has always been a country of great wealthiest and riches, and many of us living here toss away their things every day that becomes valuable possessions of many other people living there.

One day somebody told me that he could not give to a charity program as she didn’t feel it good gong into debt, and that her spouse thought that a pledge to give money was actually a debt. I must have surprised the man giving the comment, as I also did agree and say that I also believe in enjoying a totally debt-free life style.

She nodded and stated, “Yep, we do not have any debt either at this time. Well, just one car…and the student loan…and the credit card… and naturally, the mortgage does not matter.”

I was totally taken aback and didn’t dare to say anything more in response to that statement.
