Today’s Monday Mindset: Find the Fun
Find the fun.
We’ve been here at this airport for the past 24 hours as yesterday our flight got delayed and delayed and then eventually canceled. And customs wouldn’t allow any of the 400 passengers to leave the airport.
We had a near sleepless night last night. And here we are midway through the afternoon, still haven’t left yet, waiting to see if we’re actually going to get out on Christmas Eve or not.
And I say all of that to tell you in the midst of a difficult circumstance, you’ve always got to try and find a way to make the most of it.
You can’t always control your circumstance, but you can control your approach to that circumstance.
At one point, we had to switch gates, and I just called out, “Let’s run.” And so at first it was just my son, Zachary, and I, but then about 20 other passengers started running as well. And we were just bolting. It was so funny. There’s nothing even to be gained by running, really, but we just ran as hard as we could.
It created lots of laughs and it just lightened the mood for us all. A lot of grumpy passengers just got a lot more lighthearted.
You’ve got to find ways to find the fun in the midst of your difficult circumstances, no matter what they are. They’ll make them more bearable, even more enjoyable.
It’ll help you to get through difficult things more when you find things to laugh at, find things to lighten the mood, and find things that might even be a bit fun.
That’s my challenge for you today…find the fun.
That’s your Monday Mindset.
