The ‘80s Girls Challenge Step 1

Written By Lu

Identify the Fun

Before we get to the first challenge, let’s take a look at some possible roadblocks:

1) Grab a notebook or laptop

2) Go to a quiet place where no one can disrupt you

3) Answer these questions:

A fun memory I have is _______________

Another time I had a lot of fun ___________________

Someone I know who is a lot of fun __________________

What makes that person fun is ______________________

Would people describe me as fun _________________

Why or why not _______________________________

Am I having as much fun as I could be having __________________________

Can I identify anything that prevents me from having fun _________________________

Can I adjust these obstacles _________________________________

Knowing that travel is limited is there more I could be doing indoors that could be more fun ___________________

Of course we have to ask about the ‘80s:

Does ‘80s nostalgia make you happy ___________________________

Is there a specific ‘80s band or musician that brings happiness _______________________

Is there an ‘80s TV show or movie that makes you happy ____________________

Are there memories of the ‘80s that make you happy _______________________

4) Take a look at your answers. Is there any pattern? Anything that stands out as preventing you from enjoying life? We’re older, have more responsibilities (and aches and pains!) AND we’re in a pandemic. It takes a conscious effort to override the hurdles. Fun mindfulness.

Understanding your fun parameters can add more joy into your life. Your first challenge will be posted tomorrow. Bookmark this page. In the meantime look at your answers, identify obstacles and get ready to have some frickin’ fun!
