The dreaded 404 error.
This is the error you get on your screen when you click on a link and it takes you to a dead end – a page on a website that doesn’t exist.
This is frustrating, but at least you get an easy to recognize error message.
In business, this 404 error shows, but it doesn’t show up as clearly to the untrained eye and so, most business owners keep moving forward until it’s too late. This results in undue stress, anxiety, and the feeling of being stuck without knowing what to do.
These errors come up if other areas of our lives as well or course, but are often ignored. They tend to be the most painful in our relationships and often deadly in our health.
Just like a website, we all need constant maintenance to ensure we’re operating at our best. Someone to not only check for the errors and clean them up but to teach us how to do it ourselves so that we may become masters of our own domain.
When’s the last time you went through your business, relationships, health, or spiritual being to clean up your 404 errors?
Isn’t a good time… now?
During my morning meditation, a thought came to mind.
I’ve always had the most success when I was having fun.
This is true as an athlete, where I felt like I was in a state of flow – in the moment. The game seemed easier to me and I would laugh (which would worry people).
This is true in my marriage. When I chose to simply be the CFO of our relationship (the Chief Fun Officer), then our love seemed to magnify and the bond between us would get stronger.
This is also true in my business. When I chose to “play” with my work, time seemed to slip through and money would come in more readily.
Is it really this easy?
It certainly is when times are good, but what about when times are harder? Can you still have fun?
If not, then why not?
If yes, then let me ask you a question – are you having fun with all three areas mentioned above in your life now?
Try it and let me know how it goes.
Play hard… or soft… doesn’t matter as long as you play. 😎
