One area in my life I have been more intentional about in the last year is to make sure I am taking time to have fun! Create memories, try new things, and just have fun. I tend to have no ‘off’ button when it comes to work, and honestly if it was not for Adam making sure I get away – I would just keep working and working, even when I was burnt out.
After reading the book, Your Oxygen Mask First by Kevin Lawrence – one of my take aways was that I need to prioritize having fun and making memories more. My career can be stressful and there are fewer stress relievers than having fun and laughing. Having fun makes me more creative too, it’s like it unshackles your mind. Having fun creates deeper bonds with loved ones – creating new memories that will last a lifetime. This weekend Adam and I went out with a group of people we didn’t know well, we made new friends, we went out to eat, went to a concert and stayed out way later than normal. It refreshed my soul after a very long week. Today I have been reflecting on how much fun we had and am reminded about the importance of taking time to prioritize fun. So, the next time you find yourself caught up in the whirlwind of life's demands, remember the importance of taking time for fun. Whether it's a few minutes of laughter with friends or a weekend getaway, prioritize activities that bring you joy and replenish your spirit. B.
