I've been wanting to get out of town on a decent road trip, but all the details of trying to make schedules and reservations was just too much for me to deal with so I finally did what has worked so many times in the past: I delegated the details!
One of my favorite sayings: "I delegate, therefore I am."
I simply charged my assistant Carol with making it happen. I gave her the final destination (Big Sur) and the duration (about 10 days) and asked her to research the campgrounds and see if she could make reservations for me along the way there and back. Many days of planning and preparation all come down to "The Night Before", an auspicious time if ever there was one.
I reflect on the other epic journeys in my life, all of which began with their own Night Before and Morning Of.
As always, I'm a little bit nervous, but also feeling confident and strong.
Nevertheless, I updated my Will.
I make last-minute piles of supplies and equipment, and tire myself out, finally getting to sleep and dreaming of Grand Adventure in the morning.
