I'm pretty sure you and I both need one. Don't we? Slaving away all week in that cubicle putting up with those same people, "didn't you get the memo?" It's enough to drive you crazy, literally. And we all have those same dreams don't we? We dream about going up to our boss and saying, in no uncertain terms, "Forget You."

You wouldn't say anything else would you? But really, we all need to plan a Forget You trip this year. All of us love outdoor adventure and exploring new places. Working in a cubicle can steal our soul and passion for adventure. Sure it has something to do with attitude, but the corporate world we live in doesn't exactly help the situation.

We all need to escape at least once a year for longer then a weekend. We need to feed the beast of our adventurous minds. Planning and executing a Forget You trip could be the highlight of your year, and just be enough to keep you going through the rest.

Why do you need a Forget You trip?

1. Escape
An awesome Forget You trip will allow you to escape a little, from the world and life. No emails, phones, computers, or too many humans you know by first name. Escaping is a essential part of survival in the cubicle world. When we are hundreds or even thousands of miles away from our responsibilities, a large weight is lifted off our backs. We can walk a little straighter and taller.

We can breathe a little deeper, and slowly forgot everything else but our surroundings, you can be and do whatever you wish.

2. Exercise Mind and Imagination
Forget You trips have another great benefit, they allow us to exercise our mind and imagination. Being a lover of the outdoors I'm sure you would agree that imagining all those mountains, hills, rivers, and forests you want to conquer is food for the soul. It makes us younger and stronger, able to enjoy our surroundings.

Hiking through the back country of Colorado looking at the wilderness around you will allow your imagination to roam, and relax your mind like nothing that could ever happen at home or on your couch.

3. Provide Meaning and Drive
One thing is for sure, when we return from our Forget You trip we will not be the same people who left. Everything in life that seemed dark and dreary before now seems alive and bright. Everything is to be conquered now.

An awesome adventure experience will provide us drive and meaning for work, life, and relationships. If you can climb even a small mountain, are those problems at work really that hard to overcome? Work can be tough, a Forget You trip will give you the mind power to be successful in life.

Feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, the experience we had will give us meaning and something to look forward to, even the next Forget You trip.

Alas, the world might slowly steal these things from you slowly over a few months. But, there is a remedy for that, plan another Forget You trip and start all over again. Adventure makes us who we are.

Remember next time you are frustrated at work, when you car dies, or you get yelled at. Just say Forget You to everything and head out for your own adventure that will provide you escape, will exercise your mind, and provide drive when you return.
