The easy path to success and happiness

"Energy flows freely to fun"

It is so ingrained into our culture that many of you will have trouble with this concept. We are bombarded with cliches like;

Keep your nose to the grindstone (ouch, that's gonna hurt)
Put your shoulder to the wheel (why not use the engine)
Work your fingers to the bone (as Randy Travis said...what do your get...bony fingers)

Yes amigos, there is nothing wrong with hard work and long hours. That is, if you are ok with sacrificing your home life and your health long term. Truth is, the immediate return from hard work is fatigue.

So what is the alternative?

The answer is to have fun in everything you do! This is the biggest lesson I have ever learned in my life. Since I have acquired the skill my income has tripled, I work less and enjoy life so much more. I understand this doesn't seem logical but it really is. And do you know why?

"Because.....energy flows freely to fun"

I'm going to keep on saying that until you are convinced of my brillance (ok, maybe just till you open up your mind to the thought). Let me give you some examples that will make my point;

Sexual energy (I knew that would get your attention) also flows freely to fun.

All couples will tell you that they usually have more sex and better sex when they are on holidays. The reason of course is that they are leaving their routines (boredom) behind and having fun on a holiday. You like that don't you?

Creativity flows freely to fun.

I read every book on creativity I can get my hands on. The common thread in all the books is to have fun. Trying too hard brings poor results. It's when we are most relaxed that we are open to new ideas to flow through us. So when we are laughing so hard our bellies ache then we get really creative.

Great effort flows freely to fun.

Those who are lucky (or smart enough) to have a job they love, put out more energy towards their job, than those that hate their job. They concentrate better and produce much better results. They always end up making more money as well. They will tell you that it isn't really work at all.

Maybe this helps explain my two favorite quotes (that I made up)

"Everything is possible, if you can have fun doing it"

"All is not as it seems...it is much better"

Some guy named Plato said....life must be lived as play! Although he lived 2,500 years ago, I'm thinking he was one smart dude. So why not play with everything; play with ideas, play with work, play with your mate, play with losing weight and making money. The more you play the more abundance and happiness you will find.

"Man is most nearly himself when he achieves the seriousness of a child at play" Heraclitus (another Greek Philospher who probably played with Plato)

Parents always say they can never keep up with their young children. And what do kids do 24/7? They play. Just try asking them go out and exercise and they'll look at you like you are from another planet. Let them play and we get tired just watching them. They run just because it's fun.

If you are in your present vocation just to make money, you will probably never make as much as you would doing something you love. Here's a guarantee I can make....no one ever became great doing something he disliked. The spotlight generally finds the person having fun.

"You can only be totally absorbed in what you love doing"

This is because as I keep saying....energy flows freely to fun! You will always know that you are on the right path when you are having fun at it and the energy flows to you freely. You will live longer and happier if you look for the fun in everything. Isn't that profoundly beautiful?

Smile, great things are accomplished when we are having
fun.
