What was the last thing you did for play or fun?
The latest thing I did for play and fun was a plane trip to San Diego yesterday to see the grandkids for the holidays. It was literally the last thing I did, because quite frankly I do everything for play and fun. I was lucky enough to find something I loved to do and I did that something for 44 yrs, with 29 of those years being my own boss. My other passion, golf, I have done for over 60 years and have had a blast. That doesn’t mean that I have not had sad times in my life. It means that if I am going to do something, no matter what it is related to, I am going to have fun doing it. I am a firm believer that work is play. You are going to be doing it 35 to 50 hours a week and if you’re not having fun then get a new career. I was an employee for 15 years and I found that this was a major difference, that most organizations were not having fun. I admit I have been lucky. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life and pretty much did it. I wish I had an answer on how to find your niche in life, but maybe that is a start. If you do something that you consider play and fun, try turning it into a career.
