There are many reasons why laughing is good for you. When you are funny, people like you and you gain many friends. You will become popular and people will want to spend time with you. Laughing also makes people relax and they can live longer. It is therefore a service to humanity. There are people who know how to make others laugh. If you want to be funny but you don't think you were not born with the talent, don't fret. Some things can be acquired with the right strategy and techniques.
As I have mentioned, you could have a natural sense of humor in you. You could therefore find yourself making fun most of the time. However, as we grow older and the stresses of life exert their impact on us, we might forget being funny and concentrate on making it in life. Nevertheless, there is a chance for you to go back to your old sense and being funny. The techniques that I discuss here can be of help to you too. If you have never been funny in your life, all is not lost. A new star is born everyday out of nowhere and you could be the one if you take heed to these suggestions.
You can build your sense of humor by finding the things that make you laugh. Perhaps you did not notice them much and you let them pass. You will realize that people find simple things funny. If you could only pay attention to what they laugh about, you could have an idea of what people like. Do a bit of research in movies, TV sitcoms, stories and so on. If you see anything rated as a comedy, take a seat and watch or read it. Make a record of the funny parts where you can practice on them later.
In ordinary life, don't be too serious. If the situation calls for a little lighthearted moment, take that opportunity and show what you can do. Having a good laugh and doing funny things will act as a good training ground for your future jokes. When you laugh, the brain will release chemicals that will make you more receptive to humor and as a result, you will also be able to produce humor. When you give a joke in a humorous tone, anything can sound funny.
Everyday occurrences in your life can be a good source of materials for jokes. When people see how you can laugh at yourself, they will also be able to laugh at themselves. Some of the experiences are very hilarious on their own but others have to be made funny by you. That means that you can turn a flat event into a funny masterpiece out of your own creativity. Some experiences are however negative and they can be traumatizing. If you turn these into jokes, some people might not see what's funny and they might react negatively.
Are you ready to become a comedian? I hope so.
