The Original F Word. FUN!

Don't Forget about Fun

Adulting is no joke, it comes with many perks like independence, privacy, and making your own decisions. But it also often takes you for a ride on the "struggle bus." Being a parent, wife and business leader is awesome! I've grown tremendously and experience so many beneficial seminars, workshops and exceeded lots of goals. But while working so hard it's easy to forget about the original F word. FUN! Play to Win at life Playing whether by making silly faces, racing your kids, wrestling with your spouse or getting a bunch of friends together and reminiscing on college craziness, often provides us with a rush of positive emotions. As we hustle and climb the mountain of success we must make room for fun.

When you're happy your brain has a higher capacity to create new ideas, innovate and problem solve. Adding a bit of fun to your life can do a world or a difference. 3 Weeks and Counting In my recent post "Throw some Sprinkles on it," I shared my focus of incorporating more fun into my life.
