When You're Not Having Fun
"This isn't fun anymore." - I said something along those lines to my best friend in a VM this morning. I've been noticing for some time that I get up and everyday is a checklist. Every day is a race against time and I constantly feel like I'm not doing enough, or being enough or having enough. And it's not fun.⠀
⠀
Even though my mission is on point and I love what I do for my clients ... everything else feels like work.⠀
⠀
When I first started my business, it was a side hustle. One day a week I worked from around 8am - 10pm straight. I would literally run from the house with a grin on my face and be like 'how much can I do today and what massive thing could I possibly knock over today?'. It was an escape from all the other stuff going on in my life AND the financial burden wasn't on it HAVING to hit all the milestones immediately.⠀
⠀
Lately it's been a different vibe and I've been trying to put my finger on what feels wrong. And I realised today that it is that the feeling of freedom or fun is missing.⠀
⠀
So - how does that get to change?⠀
⠀
I get to make a choice and create boundaries to allow for freedom, again. For me (now) - I am going to make a rule that I drop the kids at daycare before 8am on hustle days and that I only do 20 minutes max of housework on those days.⠀
Start to ask myself, again, each morning - What impossible things can be achieved today?⠀
Start saying NO, again, to everything that doesn't feel like fun for my hustle.⠀
Write blogs in the morning again to allow my creative juice to start flowing.⠀
⠀
It's so easy for things to start shifting in the wrong direction if you don't pay attention, thankfully it's easy to change gears again once you do!⠀
⠀
I do believe that awareness is the key to everything. When things feel off - question, question, question until you feel you have the answer, then take action.⠀
⠀
What about you?⠀
Are you having fun?⠀
❤
