of There are certain days when we feel our best.\u00a0 There our others days when we are not at 100%.\u00a0 My five year son will say sometimes that he doesn’t feel like himself.\u00a0 Some people will go through a time period like that, years even.\u00a0 I know I have.\u00a0 Maybe you think 80% feeling like yourself is okay?\u00a0 You may wonder if the\u00a0doldrums you are in is the real you?<\/p>\n
The winter blues can certainly get to people, along with raising kids, and paying bills.\u00a0 But the real you is fun.\u00a0 You may have just forgotten that.\u00a0 Don’t worry.\u00a0 Lots of grown ups have.<\/p>\n
With my life coaching clients, I make sure fun is woven into their exercises and infused in my work and guidance.\u00a0 Stretching ourselves in self-growth may not seem fun, but the a-ha’s sure are and the freedom it brings.\u00a0 Self-empowerment reminds us of our power.\u00a0 That we can create epic change.\u00a0 It’s a glorious thing.<\/p>\n
I challenge you this week to have fun every day.\u00a0 Yes, this is possible.\u00a0 It connects you to the real you, beyond the masks, roles, jobs, and the baloney.\u00a0 You may only let the real<\/em> you out when you’re on vacation.\u00a0 This is a common mistake people make and seriousness seems to equate to intelligence…but life is too short for boring every day and the silliness for just holidays.<\/p>\n Make a fun list.\u00a0 Check off something daily.\u00a0 Start the day off with your favorite song and a special coffee or tea.\u00a0 Be deliberate in your joy.\u00a0 You don’t have to spend a lot of money.\u00a0 You don’t have to spend a lot of time either.\u00a0 You do have to put your energy into it though.\u00a0 Maybe exercise or your job is fun.\u00a0 That’s awesome.\u00a0 Many people need to schedule it in and give themselves permission.\u00a0 Fun looks different for everyone and has a different volume and velocity for everyone.\u00a0 Some may race cars and go to rock concerts while others do crossword puzzles and prefer silence.<\/p>\n I am going to paint this week.\u00a0 I am making that commitment to myself.\u00a0 I will have fun in the kitchen cooking up some soup.\u00a0 I will have fun with my clothes, make-up, and hair.\u00a0 I will ask the Universe, “How much fun can I have this week?”\u00a0 I love asking that and knowing how my creativity skyrockets when I’m having fun.\u00a0 Stress doesn’t produce the gems for me like being in the zone, feeling connected to God and all that is, does .\u00a0 I think I could teach a class called How to live a fun life in an ordinary way<\/em> or something like that.\u00a0 I feel I live an extraordinary life though.\u00a0 I see life as a miracle.\u00a0 When I wake up in the morning, it’s a gift.\u00a0 Tomorrow morning is Monday and I’ll start the week out by looking in the mirror and setting the tone for fun with a big old smile at myself in the mirror, saying “I love you, beautiful.”<\/p>\n Wishing you all a wonderful week.\u00a0 Smooches & blessings to you.\u00a0 Remember:\u00a0 The Real You Is Fun!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" of There are certain days when we feel our best.\u00a0 There our others days when we are not at 100%.\u00a0 My five year son will say sometimes that he doesn’t feel like himself.\u00a0 Some people will go through a time period like that, years even.\u00a0 I know I have.\u00a0 Maybe you think 80% feeling like…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":568,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"\n
