So I was like, let me use this opportunity to sell all my stuff, including half my wardrobe, because I decided to just pack one suitcase, one carry-on, that's it, and hit the road. So I did just that. The first place I moved to was Colombia, Medellin, Colombia. And from there I went to 70 different countries over three years, just traveling, trying to see the world, find myself, so to speak.

I don't want to say that because I wasn't lost. I was just trying to see the world and see what else is out there. And first of all, A, I learned you don't need material stuff to be happy. I had one suitcase and I couldn't accumulate anything. I couldn't buy anything because I didn't have room. I was on the road. Und das ist das erste, was ich gelernt habe.

Und das zweite, was ich gelernt habe, war, dass es die Routine in New York war, die mich wirklich nach unten bringt. Sobald ich zu einem neuen Ort wechseln würde, und wir meisten lieben es, zu reisen, oder? Sobald wir für eine Woche reisen, gehen wir irgendwo hin, wir fühlen, als würden wir eine neue Person wiederkommen. Also es war nicht das Reisen, das mein Geist wirklich erhöht hat.

Ich habe bemerkt, sobald ich zu einem neuen Ort komme, mache ich alle touristische Sachen für eine Woche, ich finde meine... Favorite coffee shop, my favorite restaurant. All of that the first week is exciting. But as soon as I settled in and life developed a routine again, I would notice my mental health kind of going down. So I quickly realized it wasn't the traveling.

It wasn't, you know, it was the routine that was killing me. And so I, you know, after three years of doing this, I kind of slowed down now. I realized how important it is to expose myself to novel stimuli. And, you know, it is not practical for people to just... travel forever like that. Every time you get tired of the location.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Exactly. You can't do that forever. It's not for everybody. It's not practical. The world's a big place, but at one point you become tired. So I really made it a point to prioritize exposing myself to novel stimuli in my day-to-day routine. um mich stimuliert zu machen. Und ich habe viel Forschung darüber gemacht. Es gibt Zeichen dafür.

Sobald du etwas Neues, etwas anderes, verpasst, spiegelt eine Substanz in deinem Gehirn, die Dopamin heißt, wie die Fielgard-Hormone. Wenn du also diese natürliche Spiegelung haben willst, dann integriere neue Erfahrungen. Gib mir also eine neue Erfahrung. So let me say something very simple and basic. You have your favorite food, right?
