Chores Can Be Fun

I spent much of the day today playing games with some friends, but before we could all play games together, we had to do some chores together, and that was kind of fun, too. Being able to work together and have a positive attitude about the work help the work feel less arduous. I don't think I would deliberately seek out opportunities to do work, just for fun, but when they come up, I usually accept them and try to make the most of them, and I've found Mary Poppins to be mostly right on this point. Just about every job has some element of fun to it, and while we may not be able to completely turn the job into a game, we can, with a little help and a good attitude, make it feel like less of a chore.
