“I find it fascinating that most people plan their vacations with better care than they plan their lives. Perhaps that is because escape is easier than change.” ~Jim Rohn
I have always found the idea of vacations fascinating, but this kind of puts a new light on it. Because everytime in my life when I have said I need a vacation, I have never thought of it as an escape. When Jim Rohn really has a point… instead of thinking I need to get away, the thought process really should be how can I change this for the better. If I do decide to take a vacation, I will have vacation planned so that I make sure I don’t forget anything, or miss anything. But I don’t plan my life like that. I like this quote because it reminds me that instead of getting away from all the stress and problems of life, it’s better to find a way to change it for the better. It’s a plan that benefits me a lot longer! 🙂
