Why humor and being around others is important, especially during the holidays.

Humor keeps us human.

Hi I’m Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

Coming to you from a darkened car.

This is, this is our new van, I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it, we purchased it a little while ago a few weeks ago. And I’m coming to you from the road. I’m actually out at my father’s house for Thanksgiving visiting family in California, bringing everybody along with me, my wife, and three kids, having a really good time.

Just got through playing a game with my dad and two sisters. And he’s just laughing really, really hard and reminding me how good humor is for humans.

If you’re a human look into it, okay, if you don’t get together with people and laugh really hard on a monthly basis, maybe every other month that most at that I mean, at least I should say, then you’re missing out on something, it does something to the insides.

I know there are studies and everything else that say this or that about what humor does for you. I don’t know how many of those I believe but I know that after I go through a few sessions of laughing really hard at silly stuff.

And I’m not saying being heavily in you know, heavily intoxicated or anything like that, I mean, just regular straight gun humor, with good friends having a good time, that that can’t hurt you. If you’re doing it every once in a while. I think that’s I think it opens up something on the inside. That’s a good thing.

This is just a random thought and during the holidays, if you’re not around people, find some people to get around, find some friends, ask if you can come over and just get around some people and have a good time. It’s good for you. It won’t hurt.

I think it makes us more human, as it is.

We talk a lot here about business concepts but everything in business comes back to you as a person. You know, whether you’re the business owner, whether you’re an executive or somebody in charge, which is a lot of the what my message who my messages are designed for.

Even then it always comes back to keeping your head on straight, being a good person, finding other good people to work with.

And part of that is also having a balanced life across the board. If that’s all possible. I know the word balanced is very, it’s kind of it’s a Power Word right now that kind of throws people off a trigger word I should say.

But that’s all I got for tonight.

Tomorrow maybe from the car also because we’ve got a full house full of people and by the time I’m able to break away and make a video, everybody sleeping so I got to get away from everybody in order to do it. So we’ll see you tomorrow night.

You have a good one and before we get back together, get out there and let the magic happen.
