It's officially Summertime!!!! Who is ready to have fun?!?!?! I still think as kid this was the best time of the year as it seemed all schedules seemed to stop, no sense of time and you could play outside all summer with your friends. Why does this stop as an adult? Unfair, am I right?!
Maybe this doesn’t have to be the Summer of just another season change. I am not telling you to quit your job, but what if we approached this season differently. 🤔
What can you do differently this Summer to have some fun? Is it meeting friends for dinner versus going home alone, is it going to the park to listen to a summer concert, going to the beach, reading a good book, meeting with a book club... I could keep going!
What is your idea of fun and feeling fulfilled?
I challenge you to live outside of your normal routine and find something extra that makes you feel great. You will notice the difference it has on your outlook for the following week or day.
Please tell me about your adventure!
It’s wild how the season almost forces you to pause and feel things more deeply. Around that time, I discovered Chicos (find more at https://chicos.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html) and they actually helped me pick up a few laid-back wardrobe pieces that boosted my mood—no lie, wearing something fresh just made me feel more put-together. One thing that works for me is setting one tiny goal per week, like journaling or trying a new hobby, so summer doesn’t feel like a blur.
