I challenge you to make them laugh

Are you wise? Are you a deep thinker? Are you committed to impacting people’s lives?

If so, today’s #TipTuesday challenge is for you…

—> Create and share one piece of content on social media this week that makes your audience laugh. 

Here’s what happens when you make people laugh: 

1. You help them feel more comfortable and safe to be themselves. If they have walls up, your playfulness can gently help them take down those barriers. 

2. It makes your content more dynamic. Even deep and intense content can become one-dimensional if it’s all your audience sees.

3. It creates a deeper connection. People feel like they know you better (which makes the idea of working with you seem more enjoyable). 

Over the last few weeks I’ve noticed far less light-hearted, fun and funny content—from myself included.

In fact, when left to my own devices I almost always want to write something deep and serious. But I am also a very goofy human. And this fun side of me is actually a huge part of the deep work I do in real life.

In my photography practice of taking soulful photos of people’s hearts, sometimes the best way through protective walls isn't by sharing my deepest theories and philosophies on life… but instead cracking a joke and laughing together like 10-year-old kids.

Showing your more lighthearted and fun side is not just about getting laughs from people—but about getting closer to peoples hearts. And doing that through your online presence gives you more opportunities to share your magic with the world. 

So, will you join me in this challenge?

Will you create one piece of content this week that will get your audience to smile, laugh or giggle? 

If you do, send me a link to the post. I need a good laugh too!
