After the Rush
For the years after the work stops.
The trip you've priced four times and never booked.
The money you set aside for something and never spent.
The call you keep meaning to make.
If one of those sounds familiar, this is for you. Tell it which one is on your mind, or put it in your own words. You'll get one direction to point at, and three small things to do about it: one that costs a little money, one that takes a little nerve, one that takes a little time.
How it works
- Tell it what's on your mind. Tap through a few questions, or say it in your own words.
- Get one direction, narrower than what you brought, so you know where to begin.
- Do three small things. One costs a little money, one takes a little nerve, one takes a little time.
AN EXAMPLE
Someone brought: the trip they keep putting off because they'd be going alone.
One direction
What it would take to go alone, and whether going alone is the part you actually mind.
Three small things
Today · Ask someone
Send one person one sentence asking whether they'd come with you, in a month you name.
A named month gets a real answer. "Someday" gets a polite one.
This week · Price it
Price the same week twice, once for one traveler and once for two sharing, and write both numbers down.
This season · Try a small version
Spend one full day by yourself in a town you've never visited, and eat lunch sitting down.
Not a financial advisor, not a doctor, and nothing to sell you.
No ads. What you tell it is never sold.
Start with whatever's on your mind.
