Do you have fun?
RhythmSince I moved to this part of the world I’ve learned about lazy summer: the holiday mood to slow down and relax. Interesting that this peaks in August, like a last hurrah before school starts in September and people go back to regular programming.
When I was part of a peak performance program, we’d have weekly meetings with our small groups for accountability. This was a circle of high achievers and people determined to hit their goals–whether personal or business–by increasing their flow. The one insight that always stood out was to check whether fun was part of our everydays.
On Blue Day at the peak of Lazy Summer, it’s good to do a fun check again: Do you have fun? Do you allow yourself to play, laugh out loud, eat chocolate and ice cream? Do you jump on mud puddles or silly dance…just because?
