Where's the FUN in Function?
Part 2
by Brook Montagna

Page: 1 2

Here are some examples of creative ways to have more fun at tasks that are not often enjoyed:

Paying Bills, Filing, Data Entry

• Make your surroundings beautiful and peaceful or position a photo or painting that puts a smile on your face.
• Light relaxing aroma therapy candles and play music that comforts.
• Try some color, calligraphy, or artwork on your files or envelopes.
• Set mini goals and schedule Mini-Celebrations (see below).
• Post cheerful affirmations like, "I am open to fun in every moment!"

Cold Calling/Telephone Follow Up

• Use a headset.
• Use a heating pad on your chair.
• Soak your feet when calling.
• Make a chart using stickers with different facial expressions depending on how you experienced the call, or how
• you think the other person experienced the call.
• Put pictures of happy people in front of you, so that you have a visual of a
• positive conversation with someone.
• Set fun outcomes for your call, not just business outcomes.
• For example: Get a laugh, say something inspirational, or share a helpful tip.

Cleaning the Garage

• Share the load.
• Find a friend who also needs to clean his/her garage and spend time together doing both garages.
• Every half hour or so, think of silly ways to use the miscellaneous junk you find.
• Play upbeat music.
• Schedule Mini-Celebrations (see below).

Create the Fun Habit with Mini-Celebrations Each Day

Mini-Celebrations are planned Fun Breaks that are quick, easy, and inexpensive. These breaks are different from unplanned, random breaks you may be taking now, such as going to the refrigerator many times a day to snack even though you are dieting, mindlessly watching a TV show you don't even like, surfing the net for no reason, or reading emails that are not important to you.

Mini-Celebrations are intentional ways to brighten and lighten your day and to create the Fun Habit. The following are just a few ideas of Mini-Celebrations you can do in 5-10 minutes:

• Do Yoga or Stretch
• Sketch a flower
• Sip a cup of tea mindfully
• Dance to your favorite dance music
• Write a postcard to someone that you smile thinking about Walk/run around the block
• Plan a gourmet meal
• Read a couple of pages from a Dave Berry book (or other humorist)
• Journal about your favorite vacation, friends, experiences
• Ask someone "What would you do if you had a million dollars?"
• Take photos of something you love

Now add your own ideas and schedule 3 or more mind shifting Mini-Celebrations from your list each day. Doing so costs very little in time, energy, or money, but it will bring you great rewards by helping to put FUN in function!
