Fun and humor helps us through trials, tribulations, uncertainties, and change. If we are to have fun, we must not take ourselves too seriously. This can be deadly. It is also suggested that we seize any opportunity to have fun. Sure, we’ll move out of our comfort zone and perhaps even look silly or foolish but that beats an ulcerated stomach, hypertension, sleepless nights, or worse, death, because of being uptight all the time, especially while working.
Do the unexpected. Do what’s expected, also. The most challenging work should be fun and not stressful. Perform at your top level best. Interject humor in your workday and see how much more fun you will have while at work. You’ll bring about a change in others, too. Remember, there is a time and place for everything. The worst thing anyone can do is trying to be funny at an inappropriate time.
Some of us spend over 2000 hours and more than 250 days a year working. The venue doesn’t matter. What matters is the time given to a very necessary and hopefully, enjoyable task. It’s important to have balance. Laughter fits perfectly into that equation. Have fun and be merry while at work. Everyone close to you will be happy for you!
