Are you getting enough Play in your life?

Play is the juice of life. Without play, life would be a dreary drudge.

Comedy, fiction, games, movies, friends, music, love all add the zest, zing, and joy into our days.

And yet, somehow we get all caught up in making money, and buying things, and keeping our jobs. Work becomes a chore and it really doesn’t have to be.

We spend so much time in working and learning new ways to be efficient and productive, that we neglect to add joy and fun into our day.


Now, with that ugly picture painted… what are You going to do about it?

Write down your five favorite fun, exciting, energizing things that you love to do.

Now go and make sure you work those things in this week, all five. (And if you really like it and want to, do some of them twice!)

What would your life look like if you got to do your Top 5 fun things every week?
Really, every week!

Testimonials

Toby,

I just wanted to thank you for your presentation to my team. As the manager of a highly skilled group of engineers, I struggle every day with trying to get the members of my team to do a better job of interacting with both other departments and vendors. They’ve got great technical skills, but they struggle when it comes to networking.

Your presentation was just what they needed to hear. I’m not exactly sure how you did it, they must have heard this stuff before, but somehow you were able to get through to them. I know that they really enjoyed the Improv parts of your speech – everyone was laughing and that’s what they talked about after the event. Since you spoke, I’ve seen an amazing transformation in my team. They really seem to have heard what you said and on a daily basis I’m able to watch as they put it into action.

I can’t adequately express my deep appreciation for you taking the time to come talk to us. The information that you presented and how you shared it with us has made a lasting change in my team and I will forever be in your debt. I’m going to tell all of my peers about just how effective your message is and I’m sure that you will soon be getting a number of requests to come back and once again share your message with us!
