I was also pulled with those words of gratitude when I first visited his site too. He’s an unusual blogger because he is constantly moving from one continent to the next and blogging about it. I don’t know any other blogger who does that.

We get to live vicariously through his travels.

I was hooked to go check out Chris’ site
from reading this and the first interview.

The hook, line and sinker part came when
I read what Chris had to say on the very first page I looked at….

‘Thank you for visiting my site.’

‘I don’t take your time and attention for granted, and I hope that my writing makes a real difference in your life. The first part of my life vision is “To Be the Change I Want to See in the World.” The change I want to see is more people achieving great things, finding their own meaning, and using that meaning to make a difference in the lives of others.’

It is probably everyone’s dream to travel the world the way Chris does, which makes his journey all the more remarkable considering he’s not a fabulously wealthy young man, with unlimited cash reserves. His story encourages the majority of us that if he can do it, so can we.

Wasn’t that a funny incident when he literally banged into the glass like that? I give him a lot of credit for sharing that highly embarrassing incident. It actually makes for a very funny story when giving a speech. It’s sure to provoke a couple of chuckles from the audience!

As always, I appreciate your support. Thanks for coming by. BTW, I’m using the Comment Ninja script to respond directly to your comment inside the WP administration panel – saves me so much time.

That glass door incident – sounds like something I would have done. I like how he said you just have to move on.

It’s true, isn’t it? The bigger the dream, the scarier it is. But if we tackle it bit by bit, it isn’t as bad as we are led to think. Like saying to yourself, “I want to create a best-seller.” When you think of something like that, you can easily become overwhelmed but if you break it down and write the book chapter by chapter, it isn’t as mammoth of a project you originally thought.

Hey, that’s cool! It’s good to hear you were a captivated audience.

I never heard of “Atlas Shrugged.” I’ll have to look it up on Netflix and order it. Thanks for the heads up.

Loved this point in the interview -

“The biggest dream and the biggest fear are related. I hope to achieve a high number of personal, significant goals for myself while building relationships with people all over the world that help them achieve their own goals”

That is true for all of us in the personal growth arena!

Btw, I watched the movie, “Atlas Shrugged” last year. It is an old movie filmed in 1950s. Very good and I would recommend you to watch, if you don’t like the idea of reading such a THICK book!

Mags:

Ok, I’ll let you know when I go to South Africa – would love your tips on how to get around, where to go, etc. Yes, I’ve heard about the violence and all the contrasts. I once went to Mexico and saw the wealth/poverty contrasts right next to one another.

Thanks for stopping in today, Mags. It’s always good to hear from you.
