Dr. Humour

I'm not talking about any humorous and funny doctor  here. Its just that i have got into the habit of addressing people and things as "doctor" ever since i have made my mind to do Ph.D after my post-graduation in management. ;) ;)

Vaise, if we think from another angle, humour can very well be considered as a doctor because humour is very effective in changing our attitude towards problems and thus is of great aid in solving those problems. It is very obvious that if we take any adverse situation in good spirits, we get into a much better state of mind so as to deal with the situation.

For example, if someone insults me in front of a huge crowd, i have two options- either i can take it on my heart and feel very bad about it or i can simply give a humorous reply to the person, thus saving my grace and at the same time freeing my mind from the negative post-effects of the insult. And if i choose the second option, i become a "Verito Man"  (Refer the new advertisement of Mahindra Verito below..)


I know this was a bad joke ;) :P
Sometimes too many of such poor jokes cause irritation instead of humour. And we all have atleast one person in our lives who irritates so much with bad humour that it is difficult to tolerate him even for one minute. (I use "him" because usually it is an irritating boy) Such people spoil the whole flavour of humour and consequently people get so pissed off with humour and light-heartedness that they stop smiling at all and have a continuous grin on the face. This is not a sign of good living.

Humour is essential for a happy and fulfilling life. That is why, it is good to encourage few moments of light-heartedness amidst working on a serious project. This helps in creating a relaxed mindset which is essential for making right decisions and doing right actions, thereby maximizing the working efficiency.


So, smile and be free!!! :) :)

Love,
Jayant.
