summary: benefits humour: - social confidence (you're not that symphatic with a stick up your ass) - better business connections, especially in sales - attract women - leadership skills, more charisma (according to leo one of the reasons why humans evolved to have a sense of humor) big picture: you have to change the lense through which you see the world. humour is supposed to be effortles! you have to be relaxed as opposed to anxious to let the spontanous humor come through thus for you to be humorous you have to be relaxed and emotionaly impulsive. let go of the filters that prevent you from being goofy, blunt and authentic. instead: look for the funny and the absurd! what makes people laugh? - something unexpected happens (reversal of expectations) result: releases tension categories of humor: - redicolous scenarios -> train: look for the redicolous in the mundane; add more crap to the story - role playing -> e.g. an arrogant king that expects other people to kiss his hands, but make it obvious that you're acting - self deprecating humor -> e.g: tell a girl that you have a micro penis but make it so over the top that she has to laugh - play on words -> "you're redonkulous" - go against the green! break every expectation the other person has of what you should say train your mind to constantly ask itself the following question: "what can i say in this situation to make it funny?" this will rewire how your whole mind works. give yourself 12 months time and practise everywhere. look for the funny exercises: - sit in a quiet place and think of something. then use the last word to form a new sentence. will release mental filters over time. - picture yourself being funny in every situation - talk with somebody and try to turn everything they say funny. not to do: do not use canned lines. they're not context sensitive don't seek validation. instead, do it for your own amusement. it has to be funny for you, so other peoples laughter is just an addition.
