Cup of Inspiration

Today, March 22^nd, is International Goof Off Day. Today is the day to step back from a hectic work week and just have some fun. Share some jokes with coworkers. Watch some crazy movie with family and friends. Spend time doing anything that isn’t productive, but makes you laugh.

As we know, we can’t play every day. Much of the week is taken up with work. We work toward a paycheck. We work to manage our household. We work to balance our budget. There are matters that must be taken seriously.

However, for balance, we should also make some time for fun. Taking a little time to watch a funny comedian tell a crazy story about their childhood can give you a small break from the stress you endured earlier in the day during that department meeting. Swapping funny stories with friends and family over a meal helps you gain some sanity after stressing over that business luncheon trying to win over a new client.

 Most likely, you will not be able to goof off all day today. Perhaps take a little longer lunch, leave work a little early, or take that afternoon break you normally skip. During your break, enjoy a goofy moment with those around you. You can use the break from the normal routine.
