When I was in 7th grade my science teacher told me "if you eat the cake now, you will suffer later in life" it basically means that if you screw around and have fun in your young years, you have a very hard time playing catch up when you are older. I unfortunately took that advice way to extreme, I basically didn't eat any cake at all all the way up until the age of now 30. To the point where I really don't even know how to enjoy life or have fun. So it is no surprise that there are some people who really do have to search for things like this online.
Have you ever seen the face of people in hunter gather tribes eat Western candies. It's almost repulsively sweet to them. Never eating "cake" can be too sweet later in life. Stop TRYING to eat the cake. Instead of you trying to be happy and have fun, be the baker, or cake maker in this metaphor. You might be the type of person that finds fun and joy by simply providing it for others. That may be the most you can get, but it can be enough. Also make sure you're not trying to emulate a synthetic version of fun that is created through marketing and media--you've seen the commercials and ads. That's a trap that most people fall for.
no no. its exactly the opposite. when people around you execpt you , encourage you be funnable what ever you do... you feel confterable to be like it. sorry for gremmer mistakes
The videos of the prisoners is so moving... bawling tears of joy for them. Lord, help me to have fun with my grown sons... life became so hard that none of us know how to have fun. Great talk!! ❤
Hey, this comment brought tears to my eyes🥲 I'm the eldest son of my parents , and they've been pretty stressed the last few months. Hope you find that joy you're looking for. This Internet stranger's rooting for you😅💪
This is by far one of the best TED Talks I've watched! What a great speaker and wholedhearted message! We need more fun, we need to let our guards down so we can connect with each other! Love every minute of this and I'm sure I'll have a smile on my face for the rest of the day :)
This is the most fun to watch ted talk ever , and i have watched so many this past few months lol I mean wow, my brain cells are telling me to become a different and better person and i believe i can actually do it , all thanks to this ted talk
Wonderful to see your TEDx! Congratulations!! Your playful leadership continues to inspire us to exercise our play muscles for the sheer joy and connection that results in doing so. Thank you!!!
Wow! This was so fun! I smiled and laughed through the whole thing. This is so important to create a connection and openness between people. Today I am going to go out and play and have fun!!! Thanks Matt!
The title is such that every one wants to know more and more about this simple but very different and difficult aspect of each one of ours lives called fun. Further no text formula motivating is not generally there but some simple examples and INSPIRATIONS in place of instructions. The success of such a talk is always there however clapping intensity of audience hands speaks VOLUMES as in present case. Thanks.
I want to know how to be the guy who brings the fun. Not the guy who sees someone else and follows but the person who leads and everyone else follows. How do I get into a state of mind that allows that?
Hey even if you never find out the answer to this question, though I certainly hope you do, i hope you could at least be able to appreciate your ability to join in on the fun. Many people in our world can't even do that, so applaud yourself for allowing yourself joy and bliss ❤
This looked like one of those forced meetings I had to do working as a teacher...it's not a tough guy image...I just don't get why people like to dance or laugh unless somethings really actually funny...pretty sure your heaven is my purgatory...

"When you have confidence, you can have a lot of fun. And when you have fun, you can do amazing things." - Joe Namath
Key word...confidence...
no no. its exactly the opposite. when people around you execpt you , encourage you be funnable what ever you do... you feel confterable to be like it. sorry for gremmer mistakes
I'm stealing that. When you have fun, you can do amazing things.

yyeesss exactly the feeling. i hope the future of the world looks something like this
I wasn't expecting to enjoy this so much, or be touched by this. We can all benefit by lightening up and taking ourselves less seriously.

You have to be able to let go to have fun. Doesn't always seem easy to do but when you can, it's so worth it! Great talk - I enjoyed this 😊💛🌈
