What is the point of life if not to have as much fun as we possibly can? Life should be a joyous thing. Yes, we all have setbacks and heartbreaks along the way, but if we aren’t also having a lot of fun, then we are missing out on the richness that is being a human being on this planet.

It is sad, then, that so many of us find it difficult to have fun. We have our moments but it seems that life is more of a drudge than anything else. If that sounds familiar, the good news is, there are lots of things you can do to have more fun in life on a more consistent basis, and below are some tips to help you do just that:

Laugh more often

There is nothing like having a good long laugh to make you feel truly glad to be alive. Sol, if you want to have more fun in life, seek out as many opportunities as you can to laugh, Whether it’s watching an episode of your favorite sitcom each night or spending more time with that one friend who always has a funny take on any situation, find the laughter and start loving your life.

Try new things

If you do the same things day after day, life gets to be pretty boring and predictable and it is hard to have as much fun as you potentially could. That is why it is a good idea to try new things as often as you can. Whether you visit a new cafe you’ve never tried before, you win free gift cards playing games at home, you take up yoga and exercise or you learn how to crochet, the more new experiences you have in life, the more potential for fun there is likely to be. It really is that simple.

Don’t take yourself too seriously

If you want to have fun, then not taking yourself too seriously is a good idea. If you cannot laugh at yourself if you make a silly mistake or if you are too afraid to try new things in case you make a mistake and look silly, your life will be more limited than it needs to be and happiness will be far more elusive for you than it is for people who can roll with the punches and laugh at themselves a bit more.

Learn to love the little things

It would be nice if life was one long vacation or one big love affair, but the fact is that a lot of life is pretty simple and uneventful. However, it does not mean that it cannot be enjoyable when nothing much is going on. In fact, if you want to have more fun in life, learning to love the little things is vital.

For example, if you can learn to take pleasure from that first cup of coffee in the morning or you can develop gratitude for the sound of birds singing as you walk to work, you are always going to be happier and have more fun than someone who has very little gratitude for life’s simple pleasures.

Let go of the negatives

If you want to have more fun in life, you need to be able to identify the things that bring you down and be brave enough to remove them from your life whether they are a toxic friendship with someone who is always negative, a job you hate, or a relationship that is not working. You only get one life to live, so make it count and make it as pleasant as possible. Don’t hold on to stuff that harms you out of fear.

Be more spontaneous

Often, you have the most fun when you are least expecting it, so if you are serious about having a better time in life, you need to embrace spontaneity. You need to be willing to wake up in the morning and head off to a completely new city to see what fun there is to be had, or you need to be able to change your plans if a cool new idea comes along that seems more fun, Standing still is rarely the way to more happiness in life – remember that.

As you can see, there are lots of things you can do to bring more fun into your life no matter who you are or what you love to do, so why not start having more fun more often from today?
