Life is a Puzzle!

 

                                 It is my favorite thing to do and I live my life with the puzzle philosophy!

Who has time for puzzles?  Not many people find the time to play board games, take on a new hobby or put together a puzzle.  We tend to get too “busy” and don’t make time for having fun and tapping into our creative side but, not me.  For me, play time is a must and I always try to include it as part of my agenda.  It’s fun, it makes me happy and it allows me to clear my mind even if it’s for just 30 minutes. Yes, I have a Nintendo DS and play Mario!  I have the coolest case for it and it travels with me.

Having “PLAY” time throughout my day makes my life more meaningful.  I get to play a couple games, feed the competitive spirit within me and get back to work.  I grew up playing board games, dominos and bingo.  We have a very competitive family.  Every time our family gets together, the dominos table comes out.  We enjoy spending quality family-time together and I have some pretty interesting relatives that will not accept a loss.  Our female cousins are very competitive and make it challenging for the male cousins.

We recently traveled for the holiday weekend and all of our family joined us.  We played Pictionary and used our artistic abilities and competitive spirit to win the game.  I consider playing cards, board games, and sports as quality time with my friends and family.  Now, the puzzles are my favorite thing to do but ALONE.  I know how to GO about starting a 1,000 piece puzzle on a Friday and have it done by Saturday.  I love the focus that’s required and the strategy needed to accomplish the goal.

I use the puzzle philosophy in my life every day.   I have all these things I have to do but, I dedicate my focus to one particular area, complete the details then move to the next one.  I do not look at the 1000 pieces on my table.  If I do then I become paralyzed and feel lost.  Instead I work section by section and that’s how I GO about having a productive day. You have to breakdown your priorities and duties.  Trying to tackle everything at once can be overwhelming.

I am very excited about a new goal in my life to build a brand new home soon.  My dream is to have all the puzzles I’ve completed on the walls as art.  I decided to build a work station at my existing home to start building my puzzles.  I’ve already bought some pretty cool puzzles and I’m eager to start building them as a hobby.  I encourage you to do something FUN with your spare time and not let life’s responsibilities and obligations overwhelm your spare time! We all have 30 minutes for each of us to have some FUN!
