Travel For Indiana Friday July 30, 2010 Plan a Vacation Free Recipes from the Culinary World More News Plan a Vacation MaryAnn Roche I was going through a very stressful phase until a vacation with friends came along. My friends and I had been planning for the vacation for some time and it took us a long time to put all the logistics in place. When it finally happened we all had a wonderful and memorable time. I came back feeling like "My life hit the refresh button". It was that much needed vacation and the timing couldn't have been better. The merits of taking a break dawned on me then. I am completely conscious of and acknowledge the fact that a break doesn't make the stress go away from our lives; it only refreshes us and renews our energy to face life's challenges. Here are a few ways to take that vacation; I know some of these items sound like common sense, but sometimes we are so engulfed in our problems that we can't think of these simple things, a little nudge in that direction might be needed: 1) Plan the trip well. A well planned out trip reduces the hassles of figuring out where to stay, what to do and how to get to the place. For eg. If the place is famous for shows, then make reservations for the show you want to watch in advance. That way you will not be scrambling for tickets to the show and wondering if you will even be able to go for the show. No one wants to go through anxiety during a vacation. 2) Do your research of the place you are visiting so that you know what to expect and what you can and can't miss. This is inter-related to planning the trip. Knowing what the place has to offer will empower you in planning better and choosing options that are favorable for you. 3) If you are on a budget, look for sites/books offering coupons. You never know what you might find. You can spend sensibly and still have a luxurious vacation if you plan and research properly. 4) Leave all your worries behind. Don't carry the burden of all your troubles and hinder yourself from having a good time. 5) If possible plan your trip with close friends. A vacation with friends makes it more enjoyable. Sometimes it's the company that makes a place more enjoyable. There may be a lot of hurdles in the way to take a vacation, but if we can cross all these the vacation will be well worth it. We all deserve some time to enjoy the beautiful places the world has to offer. Go ahead and make your life hit the refresh button. ======== MaryAnn Roche invites you to visit her website http://www.completepersonaldevelopment.com.
