Be More Spontaneous
Helping you tap into the power of spontaneity to ignite relationships, spark creativity, boost caree Spontaneity has long been misunderstood.
It gets a bad rap as the thing that makes people play hooky, take road trips they can't afford, quit their jobs in the heat of the moment or hook up with someone you're not really that into. We see it differently. We believe that spontaneity is a tool or a skill that we should all have and use responsibly. That may seem like an oxymoron, but in actuality the world is full of inventions, superstars

It's International Happiness Day!
Here are some tips to bring you more personal happiness:
1) Stay present. Being in the moment keeps you from rehashing the past or worrying about the future.
2) Spread spontaneous kindness. Helping others randomly is a great way to remind yourself that you are a part of something bigger.
3) Ditch the digital connections and make some real connections - even with total strangers.
4) Let go of expectations. Embrace what is.
If you need any help with these ideas, check out our blog and podcasts - we cover strategies for all of these!
Smile & be happy. Keeping a positive attitude is often the only shift you need to make.

We find stories like this by students all the time. Our University days may have been a bit more carefree but really - what's stopping us from doing things like this? Can't we figure out how to have fun and be responsible. (spoiler - we can!)
Here's some inspiration...

Finding spontaneity at Duke Early last week I woke up to this text from my little sister. “Mom and Dad are taking me to DC for the weekend!
This post ain't for everybody. Only the s*xy people. (we mean it - it's not just a reference to 80's music).
Okay, now that we're only talking to those who are comfortable - let's talk about s*x, baby. (yep - more Salt n Pepa - good catch).
A friend of ours and fan of Be More Spontaneous has just launched a new adult subscription box service and we want to give her a little support.
Spontaneity and s*x go great together - there's something thrilling about the surprise of it all. Plus it's fun and playful and darn s*xy.
The new ShiverBox service aims to inject some of that surprise, fun and play back into the bedroom (or amp it up, depending how fluent you are in adult toys).
We're not affiliates or anything, like we said, we just want to support our friend and maybe help The Spontaneous add a bit more suprise and spontaneity to their love life. Gitty up over to their site if you want to check it out.

Don't sleep on it. A new study shows that delaying a decision doesn't lead to a more confident choice. This is precisely why we prescribe honing your spontaneity skills. Being capable and confident in making quick decisions is just one of the by-products of being more spontaneous.
Why "Sleeping On It" Is a Flawed Strategy A good night's sleep is not going to help you feel like you made a good decision. Sadly.
