I came across this website a few weeks ago and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head. As a recent college graduate, I’m at a point in my life where I’m very lucky to be able to look around and take the time to start figuring out what I want. And honestly, what I want right now more then anything is to really enjoy my life. I want to work hard and accomplish great things, but I want to enjoy it, too. So a website titled “The Eight Irresistible Principles of Fun” is hard to pass up, and for good reason; the advice it offers is exactly the sort of validation that I’m looking for at the moment. The encouragement and support to have fun. The great thing about it, though, is that you don’t need to be a 22-year-old without a life plan to take advantage of the lessons this website offers. You just have to be open to it’s ideas. You have to be willing to take the initiative, and recognize that you want a bit of a change in your life. If you’re already having fun, major kudos to you! If you’re not, then take a look. See if it works for you – I promise that video is much more interesting then the rules simply laid out in print below, so consider this just a little teaser…
1 Get focused – stop hiding who you really are.
2 Get focused – start being intensely selfish.
3 Be creative – stop following the rules.
4 Be creative – start scaring yourself.
5 Use your wisdom – stop taking it all so damn seriously.
6 Use your wisdom – start getting rid of the crap.
7 Take action – stop being busy.
8 Take action – start something.
