"Be larger than life that no room, box or space could hold your spirit. Set your spirit free to roam happily that a piece remains forever in the hearts of those it encounters"
Here are some larger than life freaky things you can do to tickle your fancy.
1. For one week, take a different route to get everywhere that you go. Why? Because you might see something that surprises you, learn something that takes your breath away, run into the love of your life, meet your new best friend, or otherwise find life more interesting.
2. Buy dinner for the table next to you at a restaurant. Leave before they find out what you’ve done. Someone did this for me when i was in the midst of mega stress and I’ve never forgotten it.
3. Draw stick-figure cartoons of your angry boss (or whomever you’re having conflict with at the moment)bowing down before you and apologizing.
4. Play the “May I Speak With the Manager?” game. It goes like this: you receive incredible service, and you note the person’s name. When you’re about ready to leave, you ask to see the manager. Everyone in the vicinity will tense up, assuming that you’re going to complain. The manager will come over with a tight face, bracing herself for what’s to come. And then you—you!—break into a huge smile and gush about how awesome everyone’s doing, how much you appreciate them, and what a difference they’ve made in your day. Trust me, this one is the winner.
5. Surprise your spouse/partner/special person at work with their favorite parfait.
6. Create your own personal mantra. (A few of mine, if you’re inclined to share: If you want it badly enough you'll find a way around it, through it ” and “What wouldn’t love do?” and “What’s the path of ease")
7. Intensively seek to understand all of your associations with the word “power.” Understand when it’s mis-used; understand when it’s used properly; understand how you view it in yourself and how much access you feel you have to it; understand how others who have less of it view themselves and how much access they have to it, relative to others.
8. Learn how to make a food dish that you’ve always wanted to make: Some chicken barbecue, moimoi, bake cakes.
9. Take a digital sabbatical from email and social media.
10. Buy a polo top or canvas and make bad art. Commit to painting over it and creating new art on that same top/ canvas, ten times.
11. Scream your frustration into a pillow, followed by turning on the most irreverent music you can think of and dancing wildly and without reason
12. Connection is why we’re here, so spend a week being as connected as possible to every molecule of the planet—whatever that means to you. The very act of defining what that means to you will up your joy factor like crazy.
Stay Slaying
