“If there’s something I want strongly enough … I will find a way to make it happen” says my guest Linda Claire Puig.

Linda has had a successful career teaching people how to create Internet based businesses … and what she wanted, and badly needed, was a sabbatical. In fact, she was ‘desperate’ for one, as she put it. So she took one … for a total of ten months.

After literally years of working her heart out, Linda set out to travel the world. She planned the year as she went along, seeing The Northern Lights in Norway, Belgium, France, Russia, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Greece, Estonia, Latvia, Argentina, and Uruguay.

During this time, Linda kept her own Net business going. But she worked only 5 to 10% of her normal rate.

So … short of receiving a windfall … how does the ordinary person do this?

Linda didn’t have a windfall, but she did have a very strong intention to make this miracle happen. For her, it began with taking a cold, hard look at her finances, and how she truly wanted to live.

The lessons she learned were significant. And she didn’t lose a damn thing. In fact, if anything, Linda gained a great deal. For one thing, she saw what she had been doing to herself with her overwork. And she discovered the power of not doing … anything.

This is an important talk for anyone who’s been feeling stressed, confused, exhausted or just plain fed up by life. Is it time for you to plan some kind of a healing break as well?

Listen as Linda shares the nuts and bolts on how she managed to take her sabbatical – and how it changed her life.

Here’s what I learned from Linda:

• How she realized she needed a sabbatical
• What exactly is a sabbatical? Or a semi-sabbatical?
• How she could afford to take this massive break
• Specific ways to make this travel around the world affordable
• What else she learned from stripping down her life dramatically
• The sense of doing nothing – and what she gained from it
• How she ran her business on the road
• What the big takeaway was from her year of travel
