Travel before you die

WHY ARE PEOPLE LESS AFRAID TO TRAVEL TO THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES THAN TO GO TO THE STORE? The answer is: Because we have been conditioned to fear the unknown And it is not that we aren’t aware of our fear, it is just that we have learned to live with it The human brain is constantly working to build a story of what is going on around you If we were aware of every little thing that was going on around us, we would be paralyzed with fear As a result, our brains are constantly trying to fit events into the greater context of our life Our brains try to make sense of everything by using previous experiences as a comparison This is the reason that people are afraid to travel to places they are unfamiliar with We are afraid to travel to places where we have no reference points, no previous experiences to rely on This is why we fear the unknown We fear the unfamiliar We fear what we dont know And, as a result, we tend to limit ourselves to only the places we are comfortable with We have a routine We do the same things over and over This is a very common thing The problem with this is that our brains are very good at deceiving us They are very good at making us feel safe When we are in a familiar place, our brains are telling us that we are safe And because of this, we have no motivation to do anything different We need something to shake us up We need to be thrown into a situation where we are forced to change our routine This is how we grow Travel before you die traveling to exotic locations keeps you young of attitude it keeps you on top of of your game it opens you up to new ideas The more places you travel, the more people you meet, the more experiences you have, the more you have to draw from You cant be creative if you don€™t have things to draw from You can’€™t be creative if you don€™t have experiences to draw from
