One of the prohibitions many of us learned in childhood is the unspoken rule — don't have fun and enjoy life.

This rule creates martyrs — people who will not let themselves embrace the pleasures of day-to-day living.

Many of us even associated suffering with some sort of sainthood.

We can go through the day making ourselves feel anxious, guilty, miserable, and deprived.

Or we can allow ourselves to go through that same day feeling good.
We eventually learn the choice is ours.

There is much to be enjoyed each day, and it is okay to feel good.
We can let ourselves enjoy our tasks.
We can learn to relax without guilt.
We can even learn to have fun.

Work at learning to have fun.
Apply yourself with dedication to learning enjoyment.
Work as hard at learning to have fun as you did at feeling miserable.
