SUMMARY
Even

Fun Factor.” Because laughter and play have been shown to relax
tense people, humor may be the ultimate weapon for combating job stress
and preventing burnout. Research has shown that the positive emotions
such as hope, faith, love and laughter have a positive effect on health.

their perception of events and secure a degree of momentary calm. Science
is doing its best to not only validate that these concepts really work
but also to understand why they work. Many people in this hurry up-get-it-done-now
world are searching for strategies, techniques, and ideas to help them
have a less stressed, more balanced life. You only get to live life once,
so if you don’t take charge and make it as good as it can be, who

the book, you will learn how to use these concepts appropriately in your
daily life at work and at home to promote creativity and innovation, decrease
resistance to change, control mismanaged job stress and overwork, as well
as increase your effectiveness as a communicator. Positive interactions
feel good. When you feel good, good things can happen. There is great
power in The Fun Factor. It is:
