IT'S PLAYTIME!

Today I want to talk about creativity, joy, and play in business.

First, let’s look at the word “WORK”!

What comes to mind when you think of WORK? Is there meaning that it's hard or tiring or stressful, you might even have a memory of when you were a child…that one or both of your parents were always working and not available to play with you, or were they really stressed out about work or were having conflicts in their jobs. Or work is just something I need to do so I can be successful or have money, so I can do the fun things that I want to do with my free time.

What if you were able to redefine the meaning of the word WORK.

What if we changed it to the word “PLAY”!

What would that be like?

What would that be like to wake up and say today I'm going to have so much fun at PLAY today. I'm going to be curious. I'm going to be creative. I'm going to be of service at the highest level. I am going to be in my light and in my sparkle, in my genius zone.

How does that feel?

To put yourself in a PLAY state. That's where the best ideas and solutions come from. To be in play and in wonderment, in the wow, that's a whole different perspective, isn't it?

I invite you to think of a time, a particular time when you were having a lot of fun, joy, creativity, and wonderment? It might be on the weekend or with your family or your kids or on vacation. It could be when you were a child when you were being so free and playful and there was no care in the world. It was just you at the moment you were being present. Now step into that moment looking through your own eyes, see what you saw, hear what you heard and feel what you are feeling…that’s right! Stay there for a few moments, and breathe into that feeling, that freedom, that pure bliss!!! YES!

Now move forward along your timeline to the present and bring that feeling into your business, into your pitch, into your meetings, into your marketing initiatives, into your networking event, into your book draft, and even on stage! It would feel fantastic! Now lock that into place, like a padlock!

You can access the feeling of wonderment, joy, play, and creativity at any time just by remembering that time in your past and instilling it into your present situation!

Why not give it a try...because what is the alternative? Being overwhelmed, stressed, worried, forcing yourself to solve a problem or coming up with a solution. Not so fun, huh!

Because when you are in your joy, your light, your sparkle it is infectious, people want to be around that. People want to be in the presence of that because it's refreshing, it's inviting. It can make all the difference!
