Principle Seven...It's Not Just For Children Any More!
Are you familiar with the United Nation's Children's Bill of Rights? Unanimously adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1959, this bill asserted the ten fundamental rights of every child. The UN passed this bill because they were urgently concerned about the unmet needs of children. More on this later...
What particularly drew my attention to the UN's Children's Bill of Rights again was Principle Seven: "Teach us well, so that we may lead happy and useful lives. But let us play, so that we may teach ourselves." Quite a powerful statement, in at least two different ways.
First, I must agree that not only is play an essential right of any child, but it's also the best teaching method. Have you ever marveled at the inexhaustible energy level of a child or at the sponge-like learning ability a child possesses? These attributes are a direct result of the high priority of play in a child's life.
Children will turn any activity into a game and playing a game is fun. Fun, in turn, produces a natural medicine that infuses you with an insane level of energy. Look at the energy level of a child and try to dispute these statements!
But let's look at Principle Seven from another perspective. We don't dispute how essential play is for children nor do we deny the powerfully positive impact play has on children's energy, vitality, and health. Yet...why would we deny ourselves these same benefits?
Why don't we, as adults, avail ourselves of the same unbelievable natural medicine of humor? What myth have we accepted as fact that keeps the bulk of humor's natural medicine from turbo-charging our personal and professional health and success on a daily basis? Somewhere along the road to adulthood we started to believe that responsible grown-ups should be serious.
This is a mistake that needs to be corrected as soon as possible. The alternative is more stress, more ill health, less energy, less resilience, and less happiness than we deserve! In fact, the more you understand the consequences the more you find yourself getting excited about the natural medicine of humor and starting to feel the urge to use it now.
How fortunate for you that I teach you to use my unique, proven prescription, for free, on my website. My prescription, The Fun Factor, was created out of my desperation to rekindle energy and happiness in my own life.
Believe me...The Fun Factor works!
No one would argue that every child has the right to food, shelter, education, love...and play. But, so do you! Take advantage of your rights by visiting with me on my website today.
