Here’s a way to energize your day and energize your women friends too. Well….I think the men would also glean some energy from the pictorial, but we are aiming it at women. Be watching for our powerful slideshow with the Guts, Grace & Gusto Group, LLC depicting our heart core values of living life with guts, grace & gusto – coming to an email inbox near you. Stay tuned for its grand opening on our website in the near future – you will laugh, you will cry, you will want to pass it along to all your women (and men) friends who live life as a Gustopalooza. Until then – here are our heart core values to start practicing today:
* Seize your destiny. What you do today makes a difference tomorrow.
* Listen to your heart. Feed your spirit.
* Cultivate nourishing relationships. Build a supportive network.
* Say good-bye to guilt. Let go of perfection.
* Live boldly with intention.
* Create daily moments of delight.
* Let your life be a work of art that showcases your gifts and passions.
* Plan for the unexpected & visualize your outcomes.
* Meet life’s challenges with courage, faith & wisdom.

Fun & Laughter at Work
Filed Under Workplace | Leave a Comment
Mixing fun and effectiveness at work is good business. Since helping people create that type of atmosphere is my business, I have been off the blogosphere for a while to facilitate just that for some clients recently. Facilitating an executive retreat at Lake of the Ozarks and combining work in the morning with play in the afternoon was a perfect combination to rivitalize the team as well as me. There’s something about being around the water and boats that makes people happy. Have you ever noticed how everybody waves at everybody else in a boat as they pass? The blend of laughter, sun, fun and shared experiences can pull a team together and have residual effects throughout the coming months and years. Creating memories and corporate lore helps cement the bond between employees.
Here’s a sneak preview of an article on my website – the link is above….showing the benefits of laughter and fun at work.
Cheers!

What’s so funny? This is a serious situation that Americans are in up to their eyebrows in stress and it’s killing them. If we’d just lighten up a little, step back, and take time to work out our funny bone instead of our growl scowl, we’d be much more healthy both physically and emotionally.
Choose to laugh at a situation now instead of years down the road. In many instances it is only the passage of time that makes something turn from unpleasant or embarrassing to hilarious. Why not decide to look at the funny side of it earlier on? Having a sense of humor will energize you and those around you while combating stress and disease. ….. more at http://www.funcilitators.com/articles/funnybone.htm
