Have a little fun, ok?

Received great news at work yesterday that we made the finals for a HUGE pitch we have been working on. Very, very exciting. Of course the turnaround to prepare for the next presentation is quick, the changes potentially great, and the pressure even greater.

Or maybe not...

While sitting in the meeting to review next steps the CMO tells us, "Now let's not forget to have FUN with this."

<<<<<insert screech here >>>>

Did I just hear that right??!

Wow. You have no idea how refreshing this was to me. Having been in countless battlefield new business meetings (when working elsewhere!!), the thought to HAVE FUN was never, NEVER, part of the equation.

I love hearing things that reinforce I am in the right place for me. That one single comment made everything alright. And now the work I put against this effort will be just that, fun.

Wish us luck.

And oh yeah, remember to have a little fun today.
