We all have trouble getting off the couch and doing the things we need to do. Even at the time of this recording I was putting off going to the library to learn German for a few hours.\\xa0

Since this is a travel podcast I try to focus on travelling and getting out to do a trip. I have met many people who always talk a big talk about wanting to travel but when it comes down to it they come up with excuses. In this episode we talk about some tricks to make sure that you go through with your goals. I find that buying the ticket to your destination is a great way to do it. You won't come up with excuses to not go through with a trip when you have paid $700 for a plane ticket and you will lose it if you don't go through with your plans.

Another way is to tell your friends and family and invest some social capitol into your trip. If you say you are going to do something and then don't go through with it, you might not lose any friends, but it could hurt the way people look at you. But if you consistently go through with your actions, your social standing can improve and your circle of friends might even improve as well. \\xa0So do this if you are serious with what you want to do

This applies to anything in your life. Whether it be a business project, going to the gym, studying, learning a skill, or anything else that you find yourself putting off, do it right now!\\xa0
