Fun is fundamental

Fun is fundamental

Working toward the life you want takes courage, discipline, persistence and commitment. And, although moving ahead in the right direction with focus is admirable, sometimes we can become too serious or humourless — not such attractive qualities for success. Sure, success?is?a serious matter — but the way to serious success can also be fun!

“Have more fun” is not the usual advice given to those on a success mission and neither is it essential to success. But for those who want success more quickly, with fulfilment and sustainable outcomes, my advice is to seek out a?fun?way to work towards success.

Richard Branson points out,?“Fun is one of the most important?—?and underrated?—?ingredients in any successful venture. If you’re not having fun, then it’s probably time to call it quits and try something else.”?

How fun are you — really? On a scale of 1 to 10, what would others say about you? Do you need to fun up a bit?


Here’s why fun is the way to go:?

  • Fun people are?likeable!
  • Fun people are a magnet and?attract?lots of good stuff!
  • Fun people get?invited to the party?more often —?opportunities?galore!
  • Fun people bounce back — resilience brings?momentum!
  • Fun people?influence?— making the world a better place!

?

And, here’s one that’s no laughing matter: Did you know that scientific evidence points to the fact that laughter, which reduces stress and releases endorphins, helps you live longer? Fun is both prevention and cure.?

Remember to enjoy your journey to success — that’s the playground where fun-loving people bounce and laugh as they ride life’s roller coaster. The way to serious success can be fun!


P.S. What would Joy do?

Prioritize fun!
