After almost an entire year, I have finally read the book about how to have more fun.
There are so many good suggestions and outlets for further resources. She really breaks it down on how to reflect on your own experiences and what helps you find your flow, playfulness, and connection. If you’re seeking to increase your sense of community and personal happiness, I think this is a great start.
There was a lot of discussion that I did enjoy per se but, it could have been reduced to more succinctly deliver her message. “In other words,” it helped me fall asleep whenever I was struggling to from the Zzz 😴 also, holy moly cannoli did she use the phrase “in other words” a lot - specially, 63 TIMES throughout the book.
What my takeaway is…
1. Utilize a section of my commonplace notebook to write down times I felt delight and joy and fun.
2. Absolutely disconnect from technology on Sundays
3. Reintroduce a friends night dinner but with an approx six people to support maximum fun / enjoyment
4. Create a rainy day grab bag for me and my daughter to pickup whenever it rains 🌧️ so we can have some fun together and get tons of laughs
