Let's face it - life can be pretty serious sometimes. Between work stress, personal challenges, and the general chaos of the world, it's easy to get bogged down. But what if I told you there was a simple habit that could help you navigate life's ups and downs with more resilience, creativity, and joy? That's right, I'm talking about humor. Now, I know what you might be thinking. "Paul, I'm just not a funny person." Or maybe, "Humor doesn't belong in the workplace." Well, I'm here to challenge those notions. As a recovering student affairs professional turned comedian and keynote speaker, I've seen firsthand how humor can transform both our personal and professional lives. In this book, we'll explore how to develop what I call "The Humor Habit" - a set of practices that can rewire your brain to find more laughter and levity in everyday life. This isn't about becoming a stand-up comic or the office clown. It's about harnessing the scientifically-proven benefits of humor to reduce stress, boost creativity, strengthen relationships, and yes, even achieve more.
