5 Lessons I learned in Hawaii
In July 2013 I took my first trip to Hawaii. I’d gone away a handful of
times, but I always brought my work with me. And work I did.
Then I settled into island life and between stand-up paddleboard
lessons, snorkeling, sun-bathing and sunset cocktails, things got a
little lax. At first it was unsettling and the mental to-do list grew with
each passing hour.
Until I let myself just be on vacation. Here are a few lessons I learned
in the process:
5 Lessons I learned in Hawaii
1. Live Simply!
Figure out how much down time you need and how often
then give yourself that gift. Nobody worth knowing forgot
about me and my clients were super supportive of my time
off. Just do it!

2. Find Beauty Everywhere
There’s beauty everywhere and it’s up to us to be present
enough to see it.
Where do you see beauty in
your everyday life?
Maybe it’s on your run or your
commute to work.
Stop for a second and take it
in.

Maybe capture it on camera.

3. Pay Attention to Moments!
A vacation from all of the technical overstimulation let me tap into
where I was, what I was doing, who I was with and why I was doing
it in the most uninterrupted and inspiring way.

Can you spend even an hour a day offline and focused
on something that inspires you?

4. Be Unapologetically
Happy!
In Hawaii, I encountered
some of the friendliest and
happiest people I’ve ever
met.
Where are you finding your
happiness?
Is it in things or other people
or does happiness come
from inside based on the
way you choose to live your
life?

5. Do What You Love!
What the people I met all had in common is that they were living
simply, unapologetically doing what they love and as happy as can be.
