Do you have a passion to travel?

Like you many people probably have a strong desire to travel and see the world. For me no destination spoke to me more then a African safari. My entire life I dreamed about traveling to Africa and seeing the big 5 in the wild. As I am sure you are very aware, time has a way of passing incredibly fast. All of a sudden I woke up and felt like my dream of traveling to Africa was never going to happen. But my main question for you is, why not.

Stop telling yourself "I can't do that" or "I don't have money." Stop using these excuses and instead find a way to make it happen. That morning I reached out to a travel agency and asked for a price to go to Africa. From there I got a price and set it as my goal. Knowing that no material item will bring me as much joy as this vacation I began selling off things I have not used in years. one of them being my Xbox. This ended up giving me half of the money I needed to travel. The rest I saved through my work and finally booked my trip.

This trip ended up being the most incredible experience with my life. I am already looking for a way to get back for another trip. And the photo above is of the first animal I saw in africa.

Stop delaying and making excuses make your dreams come true.
