Are You Amused?
How amusing are you? Scott the Nametag Guy advises in his newsletter to be more amusing.
Why? “Because there’s a direct correlation between how boring you are and how successful you become. As creativity guru Edward Debono wisely suggested, ‘Becoming interesting will never be a waste of your time.’”
How? HUMOR
Why? “Amuse me or lose me. This is the reality of our culture. Whether you’re communicating your idea in person, on the phone, during a presentation or via webinar. You need to be more amusing. Period.”
How? HUMOR
What? “Interestingly, the word ‘amuse’ dates back to 1480 French term amuser, which means, ‘to divert or cause to muse.’ Your job is twofold: First, to divert. People’s eyes, ears, attentions and minds. SECOND, to cause to muse. So people stop fixedly and begin to ponder.”
