Welcome to the ERW podcast, I’m your host, BpB, fellow road warrior, husband of one, father of five, author, and recently tested to go o a business trip hence this episode.
I thought for sure back in March when the health pandemic intensified that I would be traveling by this summer and definitely having a family vacation where we load my basketball team of kids and wife on a plane to go somewhere but even that was canceled.
I’ve talked to countless business travelers and the series of questions and comments goes like this:
- Do you know when you’re going to be allowed to travel again?
- How are you doing your job without traveling?
- Will they make you travel any less when you finally go back?
- What are you missing about the road?
Question #1
Why was I so disappointed I couldn’t go on this recent trip?
Question #2
What have I discovered about myself these 1st four months of not traveling?
Question #3
What draws me to the road?
Question #4
What if I can’t travel until September or even January?
Question #5
What do I need to change? (Start / Stop / Do More / Do Less)
- What have you discovered about yourself these 1st four months of not traveling?
