Remembering to Lighten Up and Have fun

With the help of two great conference calls in the last 24 hours, I was reminded of a crucial element of business; taking the time to have FUN, and making the tasks enjoyable.

Having been a serious, detail oriented person for the majority of my working life ( AKA - suffering from intellectual constipation :) ) I appreciate being reminded to let go and choose the Fun path. One of the elements to practice in order to sustain a positive healthy mind set is to take time out for laughter and humor. I remembered once again that laughter, and fun are part of a healthy mindset. Any time I get too rigid about anything, even if it is something for my own good like exercise and time spent learning, I end up being too attached to a particular outcome. This can also lead to feeling a burden on my shoulders and carrying around a sensation of heaviness. This feeling or vibration also gets communicated to others when we are doing business. People are already overburdened and overwhelmed, they certainly are not looking for more of the same.

Most of the things that occur in our life are there to teach us a lesson. I loved it when I heard, "We will probably be laughing at this same stuff in 3-5 years from now, so why not laugh a little now." I was especially grateful for being reminded that sharing laughter after a lesson learned, lets the individuals be more in balance. It can prevent adopting a false belief around the situation or adding to negative programming.

Jessica Rush on the Wake Up call showed me that I could take this same principle and apply it to my goal setting. We are all aware that if we do not know what we want out of life we are not likely to get it. There were times where I have made goal setting serious rather than fun. I too have followed many steps to get exactly the correct wording or the right pictures for my dream board. I could relate when Tony shared about going to a quiet place to sit or in his office behind closed doors, to do this goal setting. It need not be this way.

I am choosing to have more fun and just FEEL lighter.

Have yourself a joyous and prosperous day!
