“Never, ever underestimate the importance of having fun.”
I love this quote by the late Carnegie Mellon professor and author of The Last Lecture, Randy Pausch.
Not only is fun important, it’s the spark that recharges your batteries and refreshes your mind for what’s coming next. Whether it’s daily fun, weekend treks, or vacations and bucket-list adventures you plan for months, fun is an essential part of being human.
Aaannnd... it supports a balanced life.
All month long, I’ve been sharing strategies for creating a balanced life. These strategies are based on the work of human-potential experts Dr. Dave Braun and Dr. Troy Amdahl, authors of Oola: Find Balance in an Unbalanced World.
Over 25 years ago, The OolaGuys created a formula for calming the chaos and bringing balance to every major area of life: what they call “The 7 F’s of Oola.”
Along with Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith and Friends . . . FUN is an area that often gets out of balance—and an area which most people ignore, especially when money is low and stress is high.
The irony, of course, is that fun actually combats the stress hormone cortisol in your body.
So if you’re someone who says, “Fun is for kids. Adults don’t do that” . . . or if you have the commonly held belief: “I’ll have fun once I retire”, realize that you’re cheating yourself from one of the real joys of life.
“FUN” doesn’t necessarily require a lot of money. It could be something as simple as an impromptu lunch with your galpals.
And with some planning, you could even enjoy bucket-list adventures like meeting someone famous who inspires you. . . attending a high-level workshop related to your favorite hobby. . . renting a cool Airbnb at the beach for a loooong weekend. . . sign up for a class and study a subject you’ve long been passionate about.
As a coach, I not only help people create a plan for achieving their goals in major life categories like fitness, finances, and field (career), but I also make sure their plan doesn’t leave out the all-important “Fun” category.
Could you use less stress, more balance, and more fun in your life? (Couldn’t we all???)
