			| The Ultimate Motivation 
 "The Ultimate Motivation"

 "Learn to super-motivate with travel"
 
 
 When was the last time you went on a vacation? I don't
 mean taking a week off to paint your house, either.
 
 
 Staying motivated is most important to anyone that wants
 to grow their business to success. This is often difficult
 when buried in stress and a heavy workload while running a
 small home-based business. Without constant motivation,
 your venture will not survive.
 
 
 Taking time off from your busy schedule once a year can be
 very beneficial to your overall well-being. Only if you
 use this time to it's fullest, though. You need to "get
 out of town", away from the daily influences on your life.
 This also happens to be the best way to get "quality time"
 with your family and friends.
 
 
 Traveling throughout your home country can be a great
 experience, but if you have never ventured outside the
 border, you're really missing out. It can be personally
 enriching to learn how the rest of the world lives. The
 different people you meet, different customs and lan-
 guages, can be uplifting and sometimes amazing. You will
 gain a different perspective on life, seeing first-hand
 that people around the world have very different ideas of
 what is important in life. After experiencing life in
 other lands, you will appreciate what you have right here
 at home.
 
 
 When traveling abroad, the hardest part of the trip is
 leaving when your time is up. You will "wish" that you
 could stay there longer, or "forever". Well, guess what?
 You can! Use this feeling as motivation to work hard and
 build your business and your "situation". Soon, you will
 be able to stay at that great locale as long as you want.
 If you play your cards right, you might even find a great
 deal on some oceanfront property, or a house in the hills.
 This would allow you to stay there as long as you'd like.
 
 
 If you
 
 
				
 run an online marketing business of some kind, you
 must realize that an internet-based venture is wonderfully
 mobile. The work you do at your home office now can just
 as well be done in the location of your choice. A laptop
 and an internet connection is all that you'll need to take
 your business "on the road". You can even creatively
 structure your business to be able to take advantage of
 tax deductions related to the running of your online
 company from different cities around the world. This could
 help to reduce the cost of "getting out of town". Ask your
 CPA or financial planner for a game plan to make your
 mobile business ideas happen. Of course, the tax benefits
 will differ according to the country in which you are a
 citizen.
 
 
 Can you imagine sitting on a lounge chair on a pink sand
 beach, laptop in hand, writing next week's issue of your
 newsletter? How about relaxing on your sailboat while
 anchored in a beautiful tropical lagoon, writing your
 newest Ebook under the swaying palms? Traveling will let
 you discover a "whole new you". With the right mindset, it
 will be a source of ultimate motivation like you've never
 seen before. Every trip you take can bring you closer to
 your new dream of running your online business from any-
 where in the world. If you think that it is beyond your
 finances to be able to travel to and live in a foreign
 land, think again. The internet has made it possible for
 the average person to be able to research and learn about
 a destination, getting great deals on everything. If you
 live in a country with a strong currency (like the US), it
 is very possible to find homes or boats for well under
 $50,000 US.
