Hi everyone,
Curious for your thoughts on this. I've seen a number of threads generally about "having fun" but I haven't come across this particular question.
I was wondering if anyone has tips on how to have more fun in life day in and day out?
For the general question of "how to have fun," certain activities are suggested that seem to be in the nature of 'every-now-and-then.' For instance, traveling. Sure, one could put a trip together, but only every now and then. Even if one goes on a mini-trip each weekend that's only 2 days out of 7. If one attends dance class, that's only, say, 1 night a week. If someone likes going to the gym each day, okay but that's only 1 hour a day. Etc.
So as you're going about life, how do you just always have fun and enjoy life and not be, if I may coin a phrase, "activity dependent"? Is that even possible? Is the trick to just load your schedule with fun activities so there's never down time? Or is there something on the inside that you have to build so that no matter what you're doing, you're always having a blast?
The reason I'm personally asking this is because I struggle mightily with that interview question "if you were given all the money you'd ever need to never work again, what would be the first thing you'd do?" I have no answer. I feel like I'm not a fun enough person and that I should definitely have an answer, even if it's not a standard answer like going straight to the airport or straight to a car dealership, etc.
Anyway, just curious what you guys do to live fun lives day in and day out, in between all the planned, scheduled activities. Thanks guys!
