What If Play Is Actually the Most Important Work You’ll Ever Do?

Hey friends, Chase here.

Ever feel like your life is all work and no you?

Emails. Deadlines. Chores. Repeat. Somewhere along the way, we traded play for productivity—and we’ve been tired ever since.

Why We Forget to Play

From a young age, we’re taught that play comes after the work is done. But here’s the catch: the work never ends. So we keep pushing joy to the sidelines.

Play Isn’t a Luxury—It’s a Lifeline

Play isn’t just fun. It fuels creativity, lowers stress, and helps us feel alive. It’s not the opposite of work—it’s what makes work meaningful.

What If Work Could Be Play?

What if you danced while doing dishes?
What if you made emails a game?
What if you stopped calling it “work” and started calling it “life”?

It’s not about changing what you do. It’s about changing how you see it.

You Were Born to Play

Play is your natural state. You don’t have to earn it—you just have to remember it.

So go ahead. Laugh more. Move your body. Get weird.

Play might just be the most important work you’ll ever do.

Until next time, keep it playful.
