You can have it all. You just can’t have it all --all of the time.
ADDING FUN AND HUMOR TO YOUR LIFE
Change the Font !
Chase Butterflies and Fire-flies Practice Laughing–and don’t explain why to anyone!
Change your name… (It’s just for pretend) Laugh at the absurdities of life (if it’s the people in this room – don’t mention their names!) Surf the internet for humor sites Subscribe to HUMOROUS newsletters (separate email address for subscribing) Sing on an elevator or – (The Star Spangled Banner does nicely. Get people to join in.) Do something you enjoyed doing as a child (i.e. bike riding, skating, water balloons…) Make faces in the mirror (in the restroom at work) Color !
Color outside the lines
Read or listen to motivational books (books on tape) LEARN from Children – (enter a child’s world) Find something to enjoy – or admire – from everyone you meet (sometimes this takes time) Call friends at 7 am on Saturday– Invite them to “Come as you are right now” Party–next Saturday.
Laugh at your own mistakes–If you don’t make any… start making some Pretend you are a reporter– ask probing questions; take notes when anyone complains about trivialities Make your own list of FUN things to do–start doing them BEFORE you get stressed
Do at least TWO of these suggestions--I dare ya! I
Double Dare Ya !
