We treat fun like dessert—only after we finish our vegetables. No. Fun is the vegetable. Joy fuels your immune system, your relationships, your creativity. Schedule the road trip. Buy the balloons. Dance in the kitchen. Do not apologize for it.
Living fully doesn’t mean you feel happy every second. It means you feel everything —the hard, the sad, the glorious, the boring—and you stay in the room for it. Celebrate
That is when Living Fully was born. Not in a boardroom. On a bathroom floor.
