I read Don’t Believe Everything You Think yesterday, and there was a question that reminded me of one I’ve asked many friends: “If I had infinite money, had no fear, and didn’t feel the need to receive any recognition, what would I do or create?”

My version is a little different, but I’ve always loved the Office Space question: What would you do if you had a million dollars? 😊 If you’re just sitting around with friends having fun, you can stop with a simple answer, even if your answer is “absolutely nothing.” There are no wrong answers in this game.

But if you are using the exercise to discover what genuinely brings you joy, “nothing” is just the beginning. What does nothing mean to you? Are you sitting on the couch staring at a white wall? Probably not. Maybe you’re puttering around your garden, reading, binging Netflix, fishing, or spending more time with friends.
