Great Sunday Everyone.
I hope your all staying centered and calm during this holiday season. Today I’m going to briefly talk about fun! Many times we take the fun out of life, sometimes consciously and sometimes unconsciously. Fun is one of the most powerful forces and elements that need to be present for us to be happy and healthy. Are you having fun….? Ponder my questions below.
Can you be the life of the party when you want to? Can you bring a spirit of playfulness wherever you go? Do you have fun in your everyday activities?
Here’s a few challenges you might be facing if your Power of Fun is faltering:
- You’re so bored with life (or exhausted from your day) you just flop down in the couch every night and pass the hours in front of the TV until you fall asleep.
- The first thing you do when you’re out with friends or at a social gathering is get a drink of alcohol so you can loosen up.
- You don’t do anything that wasn’t planned out ahead of time.
- You keep your nose to the grindstone, work hard and follow the rules….but you’re burned out, unhappy, and have no social life.
- Life seems filled with drudgery – it’s all chores, responsibilities, and hard work.
If you don’t remember the last time you had some pure, joyful, childlike fun, you’re in for such a treat. When you strengthen your inner Power of Fun, the whole world will look brighter! It’s like letting the YELLOW sunshine in.
- You’ll find activities to fill your evenings and weekends that give you energy and leave you feeling refreshed, relaxed and happy.
- Fun will ooze out of your pores – enlivening conversation, finding games to play, goofing around. You’ll be the life of the party, without having to rely on alcohol or drugs.
- You might just occasionally throw your plans to the wind, be spontaneous, and discover something magical.
- You’ll balance your work ethic with vacation time, game night, and playing with friends, bolstering your health and happiness along the way.
- The daily activities of life will be fun and engaging because you’ll instinctively know what’s needed to spice them up and make them more entertaining for you.
