How To Have Sense Of Humor?​

how to have sense of humor?​

1. Identify the benefits of humor. A sense of humor allows you to find humor in both positive and negative situations. A sense of humor may reduce stress and anxiety, as well as increase coping abilities and self-esteem.

2. Recognize the difference between being funny and having a sense of humor. Being funny means being able to express humor: perhaps telling a laugh-filled story, a witty pun, or a well-timed joke. Having a sense of humor means having the ability to let go and not take everything so seriously, and being able to laugh at—or at least see the humor in—life’s absurdities.

3. Find your funny bone. What makes you laugh? What things make you smile and lighten up? This is one way to start helping your sense of humor. There are various types of humor, such as bonding humor and laughing-at-life humor.

4. Watch and learn. If you’re not sure how to laugh or have a sense of humor about things, watch other people. How do your friends and family laugh at the world around them and the things that happen to them?

5. Focus more on having fun than being funny. Having a sense of humor helps you have fun despite what life throws at you. That means you can laugh at life and poke fun at your situation. Remember to keep focused on having fun.
