The Travel Mind
Some people travel to clear their minds of the clutter accumulated from their day-to-day lives. Stress and strain can weigh heavily on your brain and it is good to getaway in order to clear cobwebs and sweep it all away.
Other people travel fill their minds
Travel can be a wonder way to fill your brain with new ideas and new experiences which you can use to your advantage when you return to your day-to-day life.
The places you visit, the people you meet, the sights you see, and the food you taste will recharge your attitude and your energy. Rather than sweep away the things on your mind, travel will allow you a new perspective. To see the old things in new ways.
I think it’s important for all creative people (and people who wish to be more creative) to keep a journal. When you travel, it’s even more important to take notes, take pictures, and take notice of the things around you.
- How did the menu at that craft brewery spark a new idea for the navigation on your website?
- Did the scenery on your hike give you an idea for a new color pallette to use in your company brochure?
- Did the tour guide at the museum greet you in a manner you want to begin using when someone visits your business?
The most important thing you can fill your mind with when you travel is… possibilities.
Bon voyage!
