Is life starting to feel like a drag? Then it’s time to have more fun! Fun can help you relieve stress, forget your troubles, and just enjoy life. It can also make you more productive because when you’re having fun you’re not worrying about things and you’re more focused. Fun is important and you can have more fun by talking to yourself differently.
10 Things To Say To Yourself So That You Can Have More Fun In Life
1. I Say Yes Often
The most fun happens when you say yes to new experiences. So get out there and try new things!
If an opportunity comes up, say yes.
If someone asks you to do something, say yes.
If your intuition tells you to run out in the rain, say yes!
2. I Do Things That Make Me Feel Good
When it comes to having fun, it’s important to do things that make you feel good. That might mean different things for different people, but there are some activities that tend to be universally enjoyable.
For example, spending time with friends and family, getting outdoors, and pursuing your hobbies are all great ways to have fun and feel good at the same time.
And when you’re doing things that make you happy, it’s easier to let go of your stress and just enjoy yourself.
Be that person who always does things that make you feel good. You will have MUCH more fun in life because of it.
3. I Let Go Of What’s Not Working
Fun is stolen from our lives when we are busy doing things that are not working for us. These can be things that we think are bringing us fun but aren’t. But they can also be things that we dread doing, but feel like we have to do them.
It’s time to let go of anything that’s not working in your life so you can make more room for doing things that make you feel good and bring fun into your life.
This can include addictions (addictions usually make life less fun) and unnecessary responsibilities.
4. I Laugh At Myself Often
One of the quickest ways to have more fun in life is to laugh at yourself often. Life is too short to take everything seriously all the time.
And when you can laugh at yourself, it shows that you’re not taking yourself too seriously. You’re just enjoying life and having fun with it.
Laughter is also contagious, so when you start laughing, those around you will likely start laughing too. And then everyone will be having more fun!
5. I Do Things That Are Silly
Silliness is another great way to add fun to your life. Kids are silly and they have way more fun than any serious adult does.
Being silly means acting in a playful or funny way. It can involve making jokes, acting out of character, or doing something that is unexpected.
Being silly can also involve being childlike, such as playing games or roughhousing.
When we do things that are silly, it helps us to let go of our inhibitions and just enjoy the moment.
It also reminds us that life is meant to be enjoyed, not just endured.
Have a water balloon fight, build a fort out of blankets, or dance like no one is watching. Just let go, be silly, and have fun!
6. I Take Risks
One of the best ways to add fun to your life is to take risks. This doesn’t mean doing things that are dangerous or harmful, but it does mean stepping outside of your comfort zone.
When you take risks, you open yourself up to new experiences and adventures. You might find that you enjoy things that you never would have tried if you hadn’t taken the leap.
And even if you don’t enjoy it, at least you can say that you tried something new and know what not to do for fun anymore!
So go ahead and take some risks in life. You might just be surprised at how much fun you have!
7. I Let Go Of Perfection
Perfectionism is the enemy of fun. When we strive for perfection, we often miss out on enjoying the moment because we’re too busy trying to make everything perfect.
But life is not meant to be lived perfectly. It’s meant to be enjoyed, warts and all.
So let go of perfection and just enjoy your life. It’s much more fun that way!
8. I Do Things That Are Spontaneous
Spontaneity is another great way to add fun to your life. When you do things on a whim, it can lead to some of the most memorable experiences.
It also helps you to live in the moment and not worry about the future or the past.
So go ahead and do things that are spontaneous. You never know what might happen!
9. Schedule Time For Fun
It seems a little counterproductive, right? But, if you have a busy life or get easily distracted, it’s important to make time for fun.
Set aside time each day to HAVE FUN. This can be anything from reading a good book to going on a hike to playing with your kids.
The important thing is that you make time for it and stick to it. It doesn’t have to be a lot of time, but it should be time that is just for you to enjoy.
And if you want to go a little further, schedule one day per week that is solely about having fun.
10. Find Ways To Have Fun At Work
Sometimes work is the least fun place in the world. But we spend so much time at work that it’s important to put a little bit of fun into it if we want to have more fun in life.
How can you add fun to your workday?
- Create little challenges for yourself and rewards to go with them.
- Turn mundane tasks into fun games.
- Make it a point to socialize and build relationships with your coworkers who make you laugh.
- Find the funny in everyday experiences at work.
