Finding The Fun in Function

Our day-to-day lives can become stressful because we are trying to meet goals, handle our financial obligations, pursue our studies, juggle careers, nurture families—and we want everything to function. But what we tend to forget is the first three letters of function—and that's fun.

Let’s not take the fun out of this thing here called life.
We are here to experience, to explore, and to enjoy—even as we strive for success and responsibility. Let us remember that we are allowed to laugh while learning, smile while building, and dance even while healing.

Sometimes we think things have to be serious in order to be productive. But what if the opposite is true? What if bringing joy into our routine actually helps things run more smoothly?

Fun doesn’t have to be a big production. It can be found in:

• the music you play while you clean

• the colors you wear to that business meeting

• the affirmations you speak to yourself in the mirror

• the walk you take just to breathe and look at the sky

Functioning doesn’t mean being robotic.
Let’s infuse pleasure, ease, humor, and soul into the systems we rely on. Let’s be human in how we do it all.

Find the fun in your function—and watch how your life shifts.
