Week 9 Reading Review #3



This week I found the most interesting topic to be about work versus play. Many people complain about having to work and having no time for leisure but most of these people don’t know how to manage the two. When work and leisure are managed correctly you may find that leisure is more available than you think. I like how chapter seven talks about how you need to identify your work and play to better understand your life.  Then you must understand the meaning of play and once you do you can learn to integrate your work and play. Personally my life is all sports and school so naturally I consider my sport as play and school as work. Recently though I am doing my best to find the joy in any aspect of my school and I’m coming to find that there is more play involved in school than I thought. More things are becoming fun and enjoyable which in the end is allowing me to apply more effort in my school work. I feel this new way of going about my school work is helping me achieve better grades and a new outlook on what I find to be work. This may be the most memorable chapter of this semester for me.

  1. Hello Southpaw,

    I want to start off by letting you know I thought this was a pretty good blog. I picked the same concept to write about in my third blog. I think seperting work versus play is very important in life. Many people do not know how to seperate their work from their personal lives and sometimes can lead them to be very stressed and not live a fun filled life. I like how you stated that you are trying find some "joy" in school. I think that is very hard for many people to do because many people have a negative thought on school.Many people considere school to be work and sometimes boring. I think that is awesome that you are trying to find some "play" in school. Overall, I enjoyed reading this blog and I thought you did a great job. Keep up the good work.
