I’m soon going off the grid for 10 days to attend my first Burning Man. These, amongst a dozen ziploc bags, are various things I’m bringing to amplify the experience and be more prepared for the playa.

Of course, as with everything else we do in life – work, play and everything in between – the most important thing isn’t packed in any bag. It’s not any one tool or item.

Today, I vouch to bring a good attitude and a willingness to be open to new ideas – so that I can learn. Because if we aren’t willing to learn, we are plagued to be underprepared for what’s to come in any situation.
