I realize now might not be the best time for you to travel. With the coronavirus going on and individuals, finances and in fact, today and yesterday. First time I've been traveling, at least by plane anywhere in 2020. I have to tell you, it feels really good. One of the things that is so great about traveling is it forces you to experience new things and to try new habits. It takes you out of your routine. And with so many people, our basic routines in life, our basic habits, are what are keeping us trapped. Yesterday I had bison meatloaf for lunch. I've never had that before. Is that really going to create some big breakthrough in my life? Probably not. But it's another experience, something out of the ordinary and causes time for reflection on all choices. If you can travel, do it.
