Today, I have the great privilege of having published over on the FeelGooder blog.
My post, "7 Ways Travel Will Make You FeelGooder" explores why I believe travel is a personal and professional investment in one's life.
Here's a peak:
“So, what do you think the chances are that we’ll catch our flight?”To read the rest of my post, click here.
“When does it leave?” asks the border agent.
“4:30.”
“You’ll be spending the night here in London, I’m afraid,” he says, handing back our passports. He glances at the line behind us, “Next!”
My wife and Iook at each other and sprint towards the baggage carousel. 1 bag, 2 bags, 3 bags, go!
Pushing our luggage ahead of us, we navigate the crowded corridor between baggage claim and the train to Terminal 1.
There’s only one flight a day; we have to catch this flight, we have to get home.
Out of breath, we stumble to the subway platform; there’s no train.
“When’s the next train?!,” I blurt to the attendant. She looks at her watch, “‘Bout five minutes.”
The train arrives. Travelers get off, travelers get on, doors shut, and we’re on our way.
If we miss this flight, we’ll find a hotel? If we miss this flight, we’ll sleep on the floor? If we miss this flight...
Six minutes later, the subway doors open and a young American couple frantically begins their
race towards the next terminal’s elevators.
Three weeks in Europe, and we’re spending our last few minutes sweating through Heathrow.
We charge out of the elevators and locate our airline’s check-in desk in the distance. We check our baggage, move through security (belt off, hat off, iPad out, no security alarms, iPad in, hat on, belt on, go!), and slide into the aircraft before the doors shut behind us.
Finally in our seats, my wife looks at her sweating husband. “You may want to change your shirt.”
Are you opinionated?
Every day, we all have interactions and transactions. Hundreds of them, in fact.And if you're like me, there's been something that's made you think, "now there's a lesson on how not to operate," or "that's something more businesses should be doing."
