- Key word is random!
- Take a dart and throw it at the calendar and plan a trip. That’s what I mean when I say random. I don’t want to wait for the holidays to catch up and enjoy the company of my loved ones.
- For investors, that starts with planning accordingly and deliberately.
- Then strategize on how to get there. Game planning and coordinating begins.
- Allow yourself to forgive yourself. Understand that there is no such thing as failing or losing. Only lessons. This makes it easier to understand that it is OK to take a vacation instead of constantly grinding and working.
