A huge thank you to everyone who came out to the Orlando Public Library last night for my presentation “9 1/2 ways to ignite adventure into your life“. I really appreciate your support and best wishes creating your own adventures.

If you missed it, I’ve included the 9 1/2 ways to travel more and have more fun when you travel below – in short form. Want more? Maybe there’s potential for an e-book down the line. Hmmmmmm.

And for additional resources I referenced in the talk, you can my adventure tips

1. create an adventure list

If you want to travel more, write down where you want to go. The act of physically writing things down serves as a motivator and keeps you focused on planning your next trip.

2. what’s the 1 thing?

Whatever city you end up in, and for whatever reason, ask the locals “what’s the 1 thing I should see, eat, do?” You don’t want to leave town without having had that experience.

3. eliminate “buts”

Don’t let excuses hold you back. If something is too far, too expensive or too silly, save your time, money and dignity and just go out there and do it when the time is right. Excuses hold you back.

4. start in your backyard

Travel doesn’t have to be expensive. There’s a lot you can do in your own hometown. So see what’s out there.

5. end in your neighbor’s yard

Take a road trip for the day and drive far away from home. Have someplace in mind that you want to visit, or just drive aimlessly and see what you discover.

6. do something child-like

Kids have all the fun, so do something that a kid would do and forget what the grown-ups think. They’re stuffy and stodgy anyway.

7. return to your childhood

What have you taken for granted? Why not revisit what you used to do growing up?

8. get a guaranteed date

Find a hobby or activity that takes place on a regular basis. You’ll always have something to do and people to do it with!

9. be risky

Conquer your fears and do something you always say to yourself, “I would never do that”. Eat something strange, jump from something high or take a chance by trying something new.

9 1/2. add lots of cherries

No matter which of the previous 9 steps you do, do it right. Cherries are the best part of an ice cream sundae. So I always add a lot onto mine. The same goes with travel. What’s your favorite part?  Invite lots of friends, splurge on something nice, spend a long time, make it a vacation to remember? Live with no regrets and really invest in making it one to remember.

If you’ve had success with any of these I’d love to know. Leave a comment with your own adventures!

I’ll see you out there…!
