Can Life Be Fun First, Life Second?

Let’s see if I can picture your day.  You will start with your dash to work picking up some coffee and food on the run.  Then you will check your emails. During the day you will watch your smart phone for text messages.  The day will be stressful. At night you can’t wait for the first rest with a drink or some TV.

You have approximately 75,000 days on earth.  Humans feel best when they are engaging in activities they enjoy that are challenging but manageable. This exercise creates dopamine, our happiness brain chemical. Would nature have created the most pleasurable sensations we can enjoy if she didn’t expect us to use them?

Contribution takes the activity engagement or “flow” to a higher level.  The ancients said God can only give and man can only receive. We have learned to be pretty good at asking, “What’s in if for me?” But when man has received enough, he wants to give back. The ancients said this is our purpose. They had very few distractions in their lives and got much closer to understanding what life is all about.

We could emulate them as well. We have too many distractions. We don’t prioritize engaging in activities that really make us humm and using our talents to make others happier and more productive.  Self expression is fun.  Contributing is fun. They require getting out of our comfort levels, which is risky. Risk is an adrenaline rush we love and when it doesn’t kill us, makes life exciting.

The best way to introduce some new exciting activities would be to take out some existing activities.  Free your mind of some of the things on which it always focuses.  Spend some time out doors looking at a sunset and see if you can handle being with yourself for a half hour.  If not, that is a little scary.  It might be a clue as to the direction you can take to get out of your comfort zone and find yourself.  You might find it  very risky.
