Have Fun - Do Good

MARCH 1, 2011

Last fall, I hosted a Have Fun, Do Good series where 12 bloggers shared how they have fun and do good. The first post is by Jennifer Lee, author of The Right-Brain Business Plan: A Creative, Visual Map for Success. I love seeing their visual plans (which look quite a bit like a Right-Brain Business Plan!)

I realized the extent to which my brain was trained to seek out stimulation, and how it wasn't so happy when it didn't get enough. This is not to say that I'm not wanting to, or expecting to have fun watching things, or being entertained. Am I simply in a space to have fun? Is it that need for visual stimulation?
