Stop optimising your life, start being silly again!

Did you forget that life is supposed to be for fun?! Are you optimising your life within a poor inch of its life? Me too. Today I’m talking about how I’ve been so focused on work, work, work, optimising, strategising, planning - that I started to take life a little too seriously again. This is for any of you who have remembered and forgotten, over and over again, that life gets to be magical, and that there are small ways you can turn towards the sun in your life when it all feels fucking flat. Our job in life is to never miss the details, because that is where the beauty is. It’s in small interactions with strangers, in the details of the environment around you, the small synchronicities where it couldn’t possibly be a coincidence… The things in life that you can only see when you slow down. _________ Please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show if you loved this episode! 🌟 Follow me on Instagram @florencegiven Follow the podcast @theflorencegivenshow Buy my NEW BOOK here: https://linktr.ee/womenlivingdeliciously Watch + join the comment section on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleWTyiVjNlDMyFHsoLlRHQ Created By Florence Given Directed and Creatively Produced by Florence Given Produced by Kate Downey Video Editing by Mika Bryony See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Did you forget that life is supposed to be for fun?! Are you optimising your life within a poor inch of its life?


Me too. 


Today I’m talking about how I’ve been so focused on work, work, work, optimising, strategising, planning - that I started to take life a little too seriously again. This is for any of you who have remembered and forgotten, over and over again, that life gets to be magical, and that there are small ways you can turn towards the sun in your life when it all feels fucking flat. 


Our job in life is to never miss the details, because that is where the beauty is. It’s in small interactions with strangers, in the details of the environment around you, the small synchronicities where it couldn’t possibly be a coincidence…


The things in life that you can only see when you slow down.
