Are you ready to stop struggling with new projects?

Here's a fun way to get rid of that stress. It's a game-changer. It's using play in the midst of your stress and struggle to unleash your creative juices and allow your inner genius to come out.

Stress reduces your creativity, clarity, and productivity while fun and play increases them. So why not give yourself permission to use playful activities purposely at work. Doing this will help you become more successful while working on new (and old) projects. It is possible to have fun while you are at work!

Still not convinced? According to Stuart Brown, M.D., researcher, author of the book, Play, and founder of the National Institute of Play, playing enhances our brain development, increases our creativity, boosts our productivity and so much more.

Here's how you can get started:
-Step away- Remove yourself from your desk
-Break time- Take a mini-mental break from 5-10 minutes
-Search- Look for something to play with - anything will do
-Have Fun- Play with anything that you have around to give your mind a rest
-Fresh eyes- Go back to your desk and look at your project with fresh eyes

Once you are back at your desk, notice the difference with how you're feeling and what new ideas come up as a result of taking a fun break. This tip is perfect anytime you are feeling stuck and stressed at work. Give it a try. You'll be happy you did!
