What is the best resolution you can make for 2023?

This year, ask yourself, “What if it were easy?” What would you do to make your dreams come true without the hustle-and-grind culture? What if life was #fun, fulfilling, and work was accomplished through #flow and was giving you energy instead of draining it?

I know too many top performers and high potentials that had to army crawl to the finish line this year. They ran out of shits to give with time left on the clock for 2022. Don’t let next year be the same!

Why It’s Important to Rediscover the Power of Play as an Adult

As adults, we often get caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life. We have bills to pay, jobs to go to, and responsibilities to take care of. With so much to do, it can be easy to forget the importance of play.

April Fool or Playful Human?

She was born on April Fool’s Day, and I always thought that made her sense of humor just a little bit better than everyone else’s. I am quite sure she is the one who most shaped my sense of humor, too. She is the one who introduced me to Monty Python, Dave Barry, and The Far Side. I watch my first Benny Hill and Mr. Bean sketches at her house, and she bought me a Dwight Schrute bobbled head for my first office. If you don’t recognize any of those names, please Google them right now, and let Grandma Lyn be the reason they are in your life, too!

In our modern technologically advanced society, we need to go back to doing what we do best as humans, building connections between people, ideas, and things that computers can’t see. If we can program a robot or a machine to do a task, then we don’t need a human. If it requires emotional insight, empathy, creativity, or imagination, then it is up to us!

Why We Don’t Play

It has been the marketing and normalization of hard work, more money, and the need for power and respect that gets in the way. We have traded our play and happiness for time savings, shortcuts, things, and status symbols. We have optimized play out of our lives to try to afford the luxuries and happiness promised in advertising. There is no money to be made off of “free play” for all… I think you can see that in the ways that play is marketed and communicated in our society.
