and to the relentless pursuit of your North Star
I think it's time to bring this back. My travel blog. The idea of Journey Talk started to take shape while I was rolling around the country on a motorcycle in the spring and summer of 2019. Then 2020 hit. Right, that. Like you, I didn't travel very far from my living room. And like you, I missed getting out there and meeting people. Comparing journeys. Learning what people truly want in their life and work. My hope is, before too long, we can all get back on the road. I'll be capturing my thoughts right here. Stay tuned. Time to start packing.

Hi, Ed here:
This is where I talk about a person, a place and a thing. Bet you're glad I explained that. Haha. I noticed on the trip that the things which most intrigued me fell into one of those categories. So this feels like a good way to keep capturing the good stuff whether I'm on the road or not. Hope you enjoy.

Hi, Ed here:
December 24th seems like a good time to talk about downtime. It's right about now on the calendar where most businesses take a break. Especially the week between Christmas and New Year's. When I had my company we always closed for the week. That meant everyone, not just a few people, could step away and be with family or spend a few days any way they wanted. I also made it a practice to give everyone four weeks of vacation. Everyone.
I wish everyone could and would shut down. I know it is not possible in the world we live in today but time off is essential to health and well-being. If you are a business owner or leader or have influence over people's schedules, please make sure you give your people time to reflect, breathe, and regroup.
My request:
I'd like to know how you fit downtime into your schedule. Please share any tips.
