Hey Fool.
To be completely honest, these posts are becoming increasingly difficult and the reason is– my life is great.
I finally enjoy every bit of what I do, and while a lot of it suits me well the enjoyment came after I incorporated it into my approach.
In my current role, I was given the opportunity to direct videos– which I’ve always felt was the only career for me. Writing scripts and directing them is genuine play, it doesn’t ever feel like work and I’d do it for free all the time.
BUT even this… on an off day isn’t so fun.
A shit attitude, and I might have thrown it away. I mean, I knew years ago that I enjoyed this so why is it that I’m only leaning in now?
That’s the point I want to make.
It all starts with you.
What you want, what you think you want– that doesn’t matter as much as how you approach the game.
If you bring the enjoyment going into something, you’ll get enjoyment back. Input equals output every single time.
This is how I began tricking myself, but the trick also changed my experiences. Suddenly my work became way more fun– even the parts I normally hated, and not so surprisingly, my opportunities grew.
If you want to expand- whether it be a new career, friend group or gain a more adventurous life, you have to become expansive.
You can change everything without DOING anything and do so just through altering your own attitude towards the game.
You are where you are.
You might not like it, and this doesn’t mean you have to stay there– after all, everything in life is temporary.
But if you lean in and bring the play to all you do, there is no way not to gain the fulfillment you’re looking for.
