Mini-Session 1: Mistakes and Laughter

Guest Speaker: Robyn McMaster, PhD

Have you ever laughed at a mistake that could have sunk you? Not long ago, while leading a conference for doctors, business leaders and faculty, I spilled a glass of water on Ellen Weber’s suit. I froze. But Ellen laughed, and soon amusement bounced off walls of the room.

Laughter instantly changes people’s mood when things go wrong, because it releases into the brain, serotonin, a chemical of well being. I’d like to laugh more at silly annoyances – and hoped you lighter hearted bloggers might toss in a few tips.

How do you manage to laugh out loud with your readers – especially when stuff lets you down or you’re just too serious?
