The Value of Humor

Best Ways to Lighten Up
– Cathy: Instead of getting mad in traffic, laugh. Decide that everything is funny.
– Amber J: Try improv; it gives you permission to fail and lighten up
– Steve: Have fun! Don’t take yourself to seriously
Goals
– Steve: Run around the block, get some Exercise, change your perspective: not everything is life and death, some things are
– Cathy: Find a laugher buddy. Do something every day that brings you joy
– Amber J: Go to a live comedy show this week; sit in the dark with strangers and laugh
Final Thoughts
– Cathy: Stop looking at all the things going on in the world, stop complaining, you can’t control a lot of things
– Amber J: If you write a goal down, it has a 65% chance, if you share it, it has a 90% chance. Write down your goals and share them
– Steve: People say things have never been so bad. It’s not true. Remember life is beautiful
