Call To Fun — Jun 2023

Things don't have to become boring

It's not fun dealing with last-minute breakdowns, unforeseen catastrophic events, and what you might call "having bad luck". But it can be a lot of fun solving unexpected, complex problems, taking chances on never-before-tried solutions, and developing new things hanging on by wires. 

But is a "fun job" in our work the same for everyone? In all moments? Most likely not. In certain stages, for some, the fun can come from the adrenaline, living the extremes, and the "we almost died", but on the other side, the most remarkable calm makes the difference. The same person can have moments of being bored to death or need to slow down and not give in to the breakneck speed of fun.

Something being fun depends on us rather than on the things themselves. Things aren't always fun because they are "better". We witness pleasure or disgust with a specific routine or unique experience, mainly depending on ourselves.

What should we do? Constantly understanding how much fun there is in what we're doing. Can we anticipate what makes us happy in our careers? We shouldn't leave everything to chance, at least inside our heads.

People must want to choose their best moments to stimulate adrenaline and the moments they need to rest! We can't always walk in joy. So many fantastic and fun things we do, but sometimes, we need to slow down a bit. In every situation, we have the proper understanding of what truly motivates or deeply unsettles us.
