Why FUN is important?

it started with a video which I shared with my team about important laws of success – one of them being – :Having FUN at work”. off-course, there were many queries regarding this like how do you have fun when you are not doing the work that you don’t like. this is very much true. a lot of time we are doing things which we actually don’t like. but, hey, that’s life – isn’t it?  well, then what do you do? Simple, find FUN!

 

now what is that? let me put forth my version of the explaination with an example that happened with me couple of days back.  I went for some information gathering work asked by Nanaji and did the requisite. as I was returning back after doing the work dull-ly I realised that I forgot to take the person’ number which would have come really handy for any other future purpose. simple, yet important info. why did I failed or missed it? simply because I was not at all interested in the job and then I had left home after a brief altercation. so, first having peace is the most important thing in life as it allows you to concnentrate with right concentration and no bias towards a situation. and second, once a job has been entrusted to you – enjoy it – why make yourself miserable by taking it as a burden. Means – if I was going to that place, I would have spent some more time, got some useful info on arrangements which could have helped me in future (Considering we also organise such big things in Pratham), made some friends – as I have latedly realised the power to connect is so important. instead of all this what was my take-away? heavy-ness, annoyance etc.

 

Life is a journey, enjoy every moment for it is the journey that is equally or some time more important than the destination.
