Summer is a great time for vacations and getaways that give you a break from your normal routine. The idea is to have fun and here is a great quote from Richard Branson, British business magnate:
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.*
Having fun and feeling uplifted aligns you with good emotions such as joy, excitement, wonder. Being excited propels you away from doubt or anxiety that may be negatively impacting your dreams.
If you cannot do a vacay right now, consider that you can still use “fun” to motivate and inspire yourself to move toward your goals and dreams.
Try This: Celebrate by Just Having Fun!
As our days are filled with “to do” lists and projects, it’s easy to get stressed and pine for a vacation or getaway to break the busy routine. When you don’t have time for one, consider this exercise to get your mojo going. Finish each statement whenever you need to tap your fun muscle:
- It's so fun to…
- It's so fun to have…
- It's so fun right now to be…
- It's so fun today because of…
As a very easy way to jumpstart your fun muscle, it can be used anytime and anywhere. In fact, I just used "It's so fun to dance!" And my silly moves made me smile all the way to my kitchen from my home office.
