Exercise: Do Something for Fun

Exercise has its greatest impact when...dare I say it....it's fun. You'll exercise more often, burn more calories if there's some laughter, and come home happier (always good for the psychology...and your family).

I used to play basketball. I stopped when it stopped being fun. I run now. Being outdoors, free to run my own pace, no arguments, and now with my dog, my camera and sometimes my wife beside me on her bike (taunting me with gems like "you call that running...?" or "out of breath are we...?") it's all fun. And I look forward to the next run.

Find something that's fun to. Then call it exercise.

Rudd Sound Bites riffs on this idea with the post Adults Just Wanna Have Fun.

You can apply this same approach to work. Make it fun, then it's not work. You work harder, get more done and want to do it again tomorrow. Your customers love interacting with you. You love interacting with everyone. Your brand becomes a brand...everyone loves.
